Using Other Conditions
The User Environment Manager Management Console provides many conditions. The following conditions
can be especially useful when creating policies for remote desktop features.
Group Member
You can use this condition to configure the policy to take effect only if a user
is a member of a specific group.
Remote Display
Protocol
You can use this condition to configure the policy to take effect only if the
user selects a particular display protocol. The condition settings include
RDP, PCoIP, and Blast.
IP Address
You can use this condition to configure the policy that takes effect only if a
user connects from inside or outside the corporate network. Use the
condition settings to specify an internal IP address range or an external IP
address range.
NOTE You can also use the Client location property in the Horizon Client
Property condition.
For descriptions of all the available conditions, see the User Environment Manager Administrator's Guide
document.
