Remote/Client FQDN context filter

We would like to have the possibility to use a filter or context checking the client device name of the physical device, from a virtual client like AVD, VMware and Citrix VDI/RDS environments where the Liquit client is running.


Example:

We are in a VDI environment and we want to know from which physical device (based on the device name) the virtual desktop is started. This way we can filter packages in Liquit, based on this device name.

We have a big healthcare customer which has printers per office/rooms. Users are moving the whole day between rooms and every room has it own printer. When connecting to the virtual devices from the specific device in that room, the customer wants to detect from which device the virtual desktop is started and with Liquit show only that specific printer in that room. The printers are special printers which do not have any follow me solution, like label printers etc.


I found out that it is possible to read the device name of the physical device from where the VDI/RDS is connected from, when using the application (not when connecting from a browser), like the Microsoft Remote Desktop app for AVD.

It would be nice if Liquit collects this information at logon and connecting a session, so we can use it in a filter and/or context.


Because of the question from a new customer who is specifically asking for this feature, I put this now as Important.

They are solving this now when using Ivanti Workspace Control which we would like to replace with Liquit Workspace.
