Table 6‑1. Configuration Properties for USB Redirection
Policy Name and Property Description
Allow Auto Device Spliing
Property:
viewusb.AllowAutoDeviceSplitting
Allow the automatic spliing of composite USB devices.
The default value is undened, which equates to false.
Exclude Vid/Pid Device From Split
Property:
viewusb.SplitExcludeVidPid
Excludes a composite USB device specied by vendor and product IDs from
spliing. The format of the seing is vid-xxx1_pid-yyy1[;vid-xxx2_pid-yyy2]...
You must specify ID numbers in hexadecimal. You can use the wildcard character
(*) in place of individual digits in an ID.
For example: vid-0781_pid-55**
The default value is undened.
Split Vid/Pid Device
Property:
viewusb.SplitVidPid
Treats the components of a composite USB device specied by vendor and product
IDs as separate devices. The format of the seing is
vid-xxxx_pid-yyyy([exintf:zz[;exintf:ww ]])[;...]
You can use the exintf keyword to exclude components from redirection by
specifying their interface number. You must specify ID numbers in hexadecimal,
and interface numbers in decimal including any leading zero. You can use the
wildcard character (*) in place of individual digits in an ID.
For example: vid-0781_pid-554c(exintf:01;exintf:02)
N If the composite device includes components that are automatically
excluded, such as mouse and keyboard components, then View does not
automatically include the components that you have not explicitly excluded. You
must specify a lter policy such as Include Vid/Pid Device to include those
components.
The default value is undened.
Allow Audio Input Devices
Property:
viewusb.AllowAudioIn
Allows audio input devices to be redirected.
The default value is undened, which equates to false because the Real-Time
Audio-Video feature is used for audio input and video devices, and USB redirection
is not used for those devices by default.
Allow Audio Output Devices
Property:
viewusb.AllowAudioOut
Allows audio output devices to be redirected.
The default value is undened, which equates to false.
Allow HID
Property:
viewusb.AllowHID
Allows input devices other than keyboards or mice to be redirected.
The default value is undened, which equates to true.
Allow HIDBootable
Property:
viewusb.AllowHIDBootable
Allows input devices other than keyboards or mice that are available at boot time
(also known as hid-bootable devices) to be redirected.
The default value is undened, which equates to true.
Allow Device Descriptor Failsafe
Property:
viewusb.AllowDevDescFailsafe
Allows devices to be redirected even if the Horizon Client fails to get the
cong/device descriptors.
To allow a device even if it fails the cong/desc, include it in the Include lters, such
IncludeVidPid or IncludePath.
The default value is undened, which equates to false.
Allow Keyboard and Mouse Devices
Property:
viewusb.AllowKeyboardMouse
Allows keyboards with integrated pointing devices (such as a mouse, trackball, or
touch pad) to be redirected.
The default value is undened, which equates to false.
Allow Smart Cards
Property:
viewusb.AllowSmartcard
Allows smart-card devices to be redirected.
The default value is undened, which equates to false.
Allow Video Devices
Property:
viewusb.AllowVideo
Allows video devices to be redirected.
The default value is undened, which equates to false because the Real-Time
Audio-Video feature is used for audio input and video devices, and USB redirection
is not used for those devices by default.
