IMPORTANT To use the View edge service, you must configure the external URLs for the secure tunnel, the
PCoIP Secure Gateway, and the Blast Secure Gateway at deployment time. This configuration step must be
done before you can use Access Point for View traffic. For more information about these URLs, see
“Configuring the Secure Gateways Used with the View Edge Service,” on page 44.
For a list of the REST API properties for configuring Access Point, see “Configuration Settings for System
Settings and Server Certificates,” on page 33.
Access Point Deployment Properties
For your convenience, almost all deployment properties can be set using either the deployment wizard or
the OVF Tool command-line interface.
For information about how to specify these properties by using the deployment wizard, see “Deploy the
Access Point Appliance,” on page 19. To specify the properties by using the OVF Tool command-line
interface, see “Using VMware OVF Tool to Deploy the Access Point Appliance,” on page 23.
IMPORTANT For production environments, VMware recommends that you use the sample PowerShell script
attached to the blog post "Using PowerShell to Deploy VMware Access Point," available at
https://communities.vmware.com/docs/DOC-30835. Using the PowerShell script to deploy Access Point
overcomes the main difficulties of using OVF Tool directly on the command line. The script calls the OVF
Tool command but validates the settings and automatically constructs the correct command line syntax.
This method allows advanced settings such as configuration of the TLS/SSL server certificate to be applied
at deployment time. The interactive deployment wizard does not include these advanced settings.
