Table 3‑8. Horizon Client Configuration Template: USB Splitting Settings
Setting Properties
Allow Auto Device
Splitting
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
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-yyy2[;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
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 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.
The following table describes each policy seing for ltering USB devices in the Horizon Client
Conguration ADM template le. The seings apply at computer level. Horizon Client preferentially reads
the seings from the GPO at computer level, and otherwise from the registry at
HKLM\Software\Policies\VMware, Inc.\VMware VDM\Client\USB. For a description of how View applies the
policies for ltering USB devices, see the topics about conguring lter policy seings for USB redirection,
in the Seing Up Desktop and Application Pools in View document.

IncludeVidPid or IncludePath.
The default value is undened, which equates to false.
