2 Congure the decoding and network protocol options.
Option Description
H.264
Select this option to allow H.264 decoding in Horizon Client. When this
option is selected (the default seing), Horizon Client uses H.264 decoding
if the agent supports H.264 software encoding. If the agent does not
support H.264 software encoding, Horizon Client uses JPG/PNG decoding.
Deselect this option to use JPG/PNG decoding.
UDP
Select this option to allow UDP networking in Horizon Client. When this
option is selected (the default seing), Horizon Client uses UDP
networking if UDP connectivity is available. If UDP networking is blocked,
Horizon Client uses TCP networking.
Deselect this option to use TCP networking.
N UDP is disabled by default on a Horizon remote desktop. For UDP
to work, it must be enabled on the desktop, the client, and the Blast Secure
Gateway (BSG).
