Details

This article is a landing page for resources and guidelines in terms of setting up a Physical Machine for secure remote access with Horizon View.

Solution

Our Techzone whitepaper on this topic outlines a comprehensive overview of the entire process:

Using Horizon to Access Physical Windows Machines:

Design

Architecture and Design

Implementation

Implementation   (assumes no current Horizon Environment)

Please ensure that your version of Horizon Software is compatible with the physical machine's operating system. Horizon 8 can be used to broker to physical desktop machines using both Blast Extreme and RDP display protocols.

There are limitations to certain o/s editions with protocols limited to either Blast Extreme or RDP.  PCOIP is not supported. Please consult this table as a protocol limitation may inform a design choice with external access or prompt upgrade.  Version Support Table 

For those with an existing Horizon Environment focused on the discrete task of setting up a physical desktop with Horizon, Please see the documentation for guidelines in terms of agent installation, manual pool creation and caveats: Manual Pool of Registered Physical Machines

Known Issues:

VMware Horizon Client prompts "Log off Desktop to switch protocol?" with a Physical Desktop Horizon Agent (92358) - An issue with taking over an MSTC RDP session with Horizon clients and agents earlier than 2111.

Audio distortion when using Zoom meeting in Horizon remote desktop session (78481) - An issue where audio distortion is seen when the specialised Zoom VDI client is not used

Horizon View Agent fails to start on physical desktops with the status: Agent Unreachable(92360) outlines a scenario when connectivity to the Horizon Broker on initial registration fails.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Will Conferencing Software work?

Naturally, this depends on the peripherals and software in use. We do encourage early vendor engagement. Disclaimer: VMware is not responsible for the reliability of any data, opinions, advice, or statements made on third-party websites.

Cisco Jabber

Zoom

Can I fully leverage the physical machine with NVIDIA Cards?

Please see an updated page in terms of tested cards in Documentation: Manual Pool of Registered Physical Machines

Do we support physical machines with supported version Linux installed?

Linux endpoints are not formally supported with this solution, please see current documentation if you wish to install virtual machines as an alternative. Note, Linux Virtual Machines only support the Blast Extreme Protocol.
