Citrix 1Y0-403 Exam - Topic 7 Question 114 Discussion

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.)
A) It requires more network bandwidth compared to standard HDX virtual channels. and B) Local access to printers will be lost until the HDX sessions is disconnected or ended.
C) Manufacturer printer drivers will need to be installed on user workstations.
D) The Citrix Virtual Channel Software Development Kit (VCSDK) will be required.
E) It is supported for only USB 3.0 devices and features. https://docs.citrix.com/en-us/citrix-virtual-apps-desktops/general-content-redirection/usb.html

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

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.

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.
