Discussion

The primary function of the UAG is to proxy connections to a Horizon Connection Server. There are multiple methods that clients can use to connect to a Horizon Connection Server, including PCoIP, Blast, HTML Access, and Secure Tunnels. Any of the methods that are not used in the environment must not be enabled to limit attack surface area. Satisfies: SRG-NET-000131-ALG-000085, SRG-NET-000131-ALG-000086, SRG-NET-000313-ALG-000010
