The Client Audio Quality options are:

uHigh. This setting is only recommended for connections where bandwidth is plentiful and sound quality is important. This setting allows clients to play a sound file at its native data rate. Sounds at the highest quality level require about 1.3Mbps of bandwidth to play clearly. Transmitting this amount of data can result in increased CPU utilization and network congestion.

uMedium. This setting is recommended for most LAN-based connections. This setting causes any sounds sent to the client to be compressed to a maximum of 64Kbps. This compression results in a moderate decrease in the quality of the sound played on the client computer. The host CPU utilization can decrease compared with the uncompressed version due to the reduction in the amount of data to be sent across the wire.

uLow. This setting is recommended for low-bandwidth connections, including most modem connections. This setting causes any sounds sent to the client to be compressed to a maximum of 16Kbps. This compression results in a significant decrease in the quality of the sound. The CPU requirements and benefits of this setting are similar to those of the Moderate setting; however, the lower data rate allows reasonable performance for a low-bandwidth connection.

The Citrix ICA Clients support mapping devices on client computers so they are available to the user from within a remote control ICA session. You do not need a network or RAS connection to use ICA client device mapping. Users can:

uTransparently access local drives, printers, and COM ports

uCut and paste between the ICA session and the local Windows clipboard

uHear audio (system sounds and .wav files) played from the ICA session

During logon, the ICA Client informs the server of the available client drives, COM ports, and LPT ports. By default, client drives are mapped to server drive letters and server print queues are created for ICA Client printers so they appear to be directly connected to the MetaFrame server.

These mappings are available only for the current user during the current session. They are deleted when the user logs off and recreated the next time the user logs on.

The MetaFrame server lists all client disk and printer devices under theClient

Network icon in Network Neighborhood.
