Type 1 hypervisors are designed to run directly on the host hardware, whereas Type 2 hypervisors run within a conventional operating system environment.ĮSXi is the only hypervisor that is fully supported by VMware for hosting Horizon virtual desktops, as it fully integrates with Horizon for full desktop lifecycle management. VMware vSphere, also referred to as ESXi or even ESX for earlier versions, is a Type 1 hypervisor that is the virtualization platform used for the vSphere suite of products. Consult the Horizon documentation ( ) for additional information about the deployment and configuration of Horizon Enrollment Server. Implementing solutions, such as SecureID and VMware Identity Manager, is outside the scope of this book, which is why the Enrollment Server will not be covered. This feature is only used when Horizon clients use non-AD-based methods for authentication. The VMware blog post Introducing True SSO (Single Sign-On) in VMware Horizon 7 ( ) provides an overview of this new Horizon feature. SSO means that, when using non-AD-based authentication methods, users will only need to log into Horizon once to reach their desktop or streamed application. VMware Horizon Enrollment Server is new to version 7, is installed as a standalone service and integrates with VMware Identity Manager to enable true Single Sign-On ( SSO) for Horizon clients that are using non-AD-based authentication methods such as RSA SecureID.

Chapter 5, Implementing VMware Horizon Access Point, provides the information needed to install and configure a VMware Horizon Access Point. Horizon Access Point is provided as an option on Horizon Security Server, and like Security Server, it is only required if providing access for external clients, it is designed to be installed in a DMZ, and multiple appliances may be installed to ensure high availability and load balancing. The figure in the previous section shows the placement of a Horizon Access Point within a DMZ environment, as is typical, since it performs similar functions to Horizon Security Server.Īccess Point is packaged in Open Virtualization Format ( OVF) and is deployed on vSphere as a hardened, pre-configured Linux-based virtual appliance. Like Horizon Security Server, Access Point is designed to provide strong authentication, and secure access, for Horizon clients connecting from outside the organizations private network. VMware Horizon Access Point was first introduced in VMware Horizon 6.2, although it was previously used with the VMware Horizon Air cloud-hosted desktop and application offering.
