Procedure
1 Tap Settings at the bottom of the Horizon Client window and tap VMware Blast.
If you are logged in to a server, the VMware Blast setting is visible only if VMware Blast is the
preferred protocol.
2 Configure the decoding and network condition options.
Option Action
H.264 Select this option to allow H.264 decoding in Horizon Client.
When this option is selected (the default setting), Horizon Client uses H.264
decoding if the agent supports H.264 software or hardware encoding. If the agent
does not support H.264 software or hardware encoding, Horizon Client uses
JPG/PNG decoding.
Deselect this option to use JPG/PNG decoding.
Network Condition Select one of the following network condition options:
n
Excellent - Horizon Client uses only TCP networking. This option is ideal for
a LAN environment.
n
Typical (default) - Horizon Client works in mixed mode. In mixed mode,
Horizon Client uses TCP networking when connecting to the server and uses
Blast Extreme Adaptive Transport (BEAT) if the agent and Blast Security
Gateway (if enabled) support BEAT connectivity. This option is the default
setting.
n
Poor - Horizon Client uses only BEAT networking if the BEAT Tunnel Server
is enabled on the server, otherwise it switches to mixed mode.
Note In Horizon 7 version 7.1 and earlier, Connection Server and Security
Server instances do not support the BEAT Tunnel Server.
Unified Access Gateway 2.9 and later supports the BEAT Tunnel Server.
Blast Security Gateway for Connection Server and Security Server instances do
not support BEAT networking.
Changes take effect the next time a user connects to a remote desktop or application and selects the
VMware Blast display protocol. Your changes do not affect existing VMware Blast sessions.
Configure the Horizon Client Default View
You can configure whether recently used desktops and applications or server shortcuts appear when you
launch Horizon Client.
Procedure
1 Tap Settings at the bottom of the Horizon Client window.
2 Tap Default View.
