Figure 17. Default ICA—Options
a. Autoconnect to local devices—Select any options (Printers, Serials, USB, Smart Cards, and Disks) to have the thin
client automatically connect to the devices.
b. Allow font smoothing—When selected, enables font smoothing (smooth type).
c. Optimize for low speed link—When selected, allows optimization for low-speed connections, such as reducing audio
quality and/or decreasing protocol-specific cache size. Intended for a connection spanning a WAN link or using dial-up.
d. Enable session reliability—When enabled, session reliability allows you to momentarily lose connection to the server
without having to re-authenticate upon regaining a connection. Instead of the connection time out, the session is kept
alive on the server and is made available to the client upon regaining connectivity. Session reliability is most relevant for
wireless devices.
7. Click OK to save the settings.
If the session reliability is enabled in an active session, and your network connection is not configured properly, a warning
message is displayed with time elapsed after warning issuance.
Figure 18. Warning
