USB Support

Anyware agents support USB devices attached to Anyware clients. Administrators can set rules governing allowed and disallowed devices, device classes, or device protocols. 

Important: USB support is enabled by default

USB bridging is enabled by default. If you want to restrict or disable USB support, you can globally disable or set rules governing USB behavior.

Important: PCoIP USB allowed and unallowed device rules

The number of PCoIP USB allowed and unallowed device rules in a PCoIP session is determined by the Anyware Client as well as the Anyware Agent. Sessions from Anyware Clients version 23.01 and earlier, as well as sessions from Zero Clients will only apply the first 10 rules.
