In the last chapter, we discussed the printing architecture and solved the common printing issues that you may encounter while working in a Citrix XenDesktop environment.
We will now focus on Citrix XenDesktop HDX policies and their configuration, which is a key area to optimizing the performance in any XenDesktop deployment. If the policies and rules are not set in the right direction, the administrators might end up with a XenDesktop deployment that is totally unstable and the users will complain every now and then about performance issues.
In this chapter, we will cover the following points:
Understanding the HDX display modes
HDX policies and their impact on user experience
Using Flash Redirection for a smooth HDX experience
Working with HDX RealTime audio/video and the HDX plugin for Microsoft Lync 2010
