Scenario: A Citrix Architect is designing a new Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops environment. While assessing the existing infrastructure, the architect determined that a number of users utilize legacy USB print devices that they will continue to need locally and within HDX sessions. The current HDX-optimized print virtual channel will NOT support these devices, so the architect decides that the Generic USB redirection channel should be used.
Which two factors must the architect consider when using Generic USB redirection? (Choose two.)
Suggested Answer: A, B

E seems odd, are we really limited to USB 3.0 only?
DA

C is a must, gotta have those drivers installed!
DO

Totally agree, bandwidth is a big deal!

A requires more bandwidth than HDX.

Wait, does that mean local printing is lost during sessions?

I vaguely recall that the VCSDK is necessary for some USB functionalities, but I’m not confident if it’s specifically required for Generic USB redirection.

I feel like I saw something about needing specific printer drivers on user workstations for Generic USB redirection, but I can't remember if that was a requirement or just a recommendation.

I think local access to printers gets disrupted when you start an HDX session, but I can't recall if it gets restored automatically after disconnecting.

I remember reading that Generic USB redirection can be more bandwidth-intensive than standard HDX channels, but I'm not sure how much more.

Confident I can handle this one. The increased bandwidth and potential loss of local printer access are the main things to watch out for.

Based on the options, it seems like the architect will need to ensure the manufacturer drivers are installed and that they account for the increased network usage.

I'm a bit confused about the Citrix Virtual Channel SDK requirement. I'll need to double-check the documentation on that.

Okay, let's see here. I think the key things to focus on are the network bandwidth and local printer access impacts.

E? USB 3.0 support? What is this, the future? I'm pretty sure Generic USB works with good ol' USB 2.0 too.

A: Local access to printers will be lost until the HDX sessions is disconnected or ended.

Hmm, I'm not sure about B. Wouldn't local access to the printers still work even with the HDX session? I better double-check that one.

I believe printer drivers will also need to be installed.

D is definitely wrong. The VCSDK is not required for Generic USB redirection. This question is a piece of cake!

A) It requires more network bandwidth compared to standard HDX virtual channels.
CL
Claudio

Yes, that's important for performance.
KR
Kris

A and C seem like the right answers. Generic USB redirection requires more bandwidth and printer drivers need to be installed locally.
AU
Augustine

Yes, users will need to have the manufacturer printer drivers installed on their workstations for Generic USB redirection to work properly.
MA

Make sure to inform users that local access to printers will be lost during the HDX session.
AM

A and C are indeed the correct answers. Bandwidth and printer drivers are important considerations.
ST
