USB Support¶

The Trusted Zero Client supports redirecting USB devices to a remote session. Administrators can set rules governing allowed and disallowed devices, device classes, or device protocols. 

USB redirection is enabled by default. If you want to restrict or disable USB support for a specific desktop, you can globally disable or set rules governing USB behavior via settings on the Anyware Trust Center. USB rules can also be set on the remote desktop's PCoIP agent; disallowing a USB device from either either Anyware Trust Center or PCoIP agent will prevent it from working in-session.

!!! note "Note: Automatic redirecting in VMware Horizon sessions" Currently, USB devices will only be automatically redirected if they are attached prior to beginning the session; they will not automatically redirect if attached within a session.

Isochronous USB device support¶

USB devices that rely on time-sensitive information, such as webcams or storage volumes, are referred to as isochronous devices. Some isochronous devices are supported when connecting to the Trusted Zero Client. Unless support for an isochronous device is explicitly stated in this documentation, do not assume it will work.
