u
Low bandwidth requirements. The highly efficient Citrix ICA protocol
typically uses a maximum of 20K of bandwidth for each session.
u
Local/Remote transparency. Easy to use, all-purpose remote connectivity
over a single remote connection eliminates the user dilemma of having to
choose between remote node or remote control for running various
applications.
u
Client printer and disk drive mapping. Users who access a MetaFrame
server with the Citrix ICA Client can transparently access their local printers
and disk drives (fixed and removable). The drive letters used for drive mapping
are configurable and long filenames are supported.
u
Automatic client printer mapping. Any printers detected when you connect
to a Citrix server are automatically added to the Print Manager. Client printers
can be browsed and connected to in the same way as network printers
(Windows clients only).
u
COM port mapping. The ICA Client COM port redirector gives Citrix ICA
DOS, Win16, and Win32 client users access to virtually any peripheral that
requires a COM port for operations. COM port mapping is similar to printer
and drive mapping, and allows users to access a COM port on the client
computer as if it were connected to the Citrix server.
u
Windows clipboard integration. Users can cut and paste data between ICA
sessions and local applications using the Windows clipboard (Windows clients
only).
u
Remote audio. MetaFrame introduces remote audio support for the Citrix ICA
DOS, Win16, and Win32 clients. Compression can be used to maximize
bandwidth utilization. Audio support requires a Sound Blaster Pro-compatible
sound card in the ICA Client computer.
u
Disk caching and data compression. These can be used to increase
performance over low speed asynchronous and WAN connections. Disk
caching stores commonly used portions of your screen (such as icons and
bitmaps) locally, increasing performance by avoiding retransmission of locally
cached data. Data compression reduces the amount of data sent over the
communications link to the client computer.
u
Simplified remote application launching. You can create a remote
application entry to connect to a Citrix server or to a published application that
contains all of the information necessary to launch a user session or an
application. All the user needs to do is double-click on the application entry’s
icon on the desktop.
