Review Desktop Pool Entitlements
You can review the desktop pools that a user or group is entitled to.
Procedure
1 In View Administrator, select Users and Groups and click the name of the user or group.
2 Select the Summary tab.
The Pool Entitlements pane lists the pools that the user or group is currently entitled to.
Restricting View Desktop Access
You can configure the restricted entitlements feature to restrict View desktop access based on the View
Connection Server instance that users connect to when they select desktops.
With restricted entitlements, you assign one or more tags to a View Connection Server instance. Then, when
configuring a desktop pool, you select the tags of the View Connection Server instances that you want to be
able to access the desktop pool.
When users log in through a tagged View Connection Server instance, they can access only those desktop pools
that have at least one matching tag or no tags.

Restricted Entitlement Example on page 150
This example shows a View deployment that includes two View Connection Server instances. The first
instance supports internal users. The second instance is paired with a security server and supports
external users.
n
Tag Matching on page 151
The restricted entitlements feature uses tag matching to determine whether a View Connection Server
instance can access a particular desktop pool.

Considerations and Limitations for Restricted Entitlements on page 152
Before implementing restricted entitlements, you must be aware of certain considerations and
limitations.
n
Assign a Tag to a View Connection Server Instance on page 152
When you assign a tag to a View Connection Server instance, users who connect to that View Connection
Server can access only those desktop pools that have a matching tag or no tags.
n
Assign a Tag to a Desktop Pool on page 153
When you assign a tag to a desktop pool, only users who connect to a View Connection Server instance
that has a matching tag can access the desktops in that pool.
Restricted Entitlement Example
This example shows a View deployment that includes two View Connection Server instances. The first instance
supports internal users. The second instance is paired with a security server and supports external users.
To prevent external users from accessing certain desktops, you could set up restricted entitlements as follows:
n
Assign the tag "Internal" to the View Connection Server instance that supports your internal users.
n
Assign the tag "External" to the View Connection Server instance that is paired with the security server
and supports your external users.
n
Assign the "Internal" tag to the desktop pools that should be accessible only to internal users.
