Requirements and Considerations for Horizon Agent

The Horizon Agent component assists with session management, single sign-on, device redirection, and other features. You must install Horizon Agent on all virtual machines, physical systems, and RDS hosts.

The types and editions of the supported guest operating system depend on the Windows version.

For enhanced security, Omnissa recommends configuring cipher suites to remove known vulnerabilities. For instructions on how to set up a domain policy on cipher suites for Windows machines that run Horizon Agent, see Deactivate Weak Ciphers in SSL/TLS.
