ICA Global Settings

Citrix® Independent Computing Architecture (ICA)® allows users to connect remotely to servers running Citrix MetaFrame. ICA Client offers quick, secure access to applications, content, and entire desktops published on servers running MetaFrame. ICA separates the user interface from the application while keeping the logic on the server. By doing this, only screen updates, mouse clicks and keystrokes traverse the connection media.

This "ICA Global Settings" section describes how to configure the "Global ICA Settings" that will be valid for all ICA sessions.

These are the default values for all ICA sessions. Most of these properties (especially color depth, resolution and server IP or name) can be altered for each session separately.
