Citrix Receiver is a vital piece of the communication equation between the client and server or user device and XenDesktop. Fundamentally, it provides the client-side ICA/HDX
protocol connection to XenDesktop and has a rich feature set designed to deliver a high definition experience to the user, anywhere on any device.
In this chapter, we covered Citrix Receiver and the plugins that go with it. You learned how to customize user sessions from the client session in the Receiver settings. You also learned about all the different devices that Receiver runs on.
