A. B. C. D.

D.

The scenario describes a company's requirement to allow its sales personnel to use laptops to access the internal VDI, while keeping the VDI desktop pools for travelers restricted from accessing the internet. The sales personnel, however, need to access links from email or other documents from their VDI sessions.

To meet these requirements, we can implement View Agent with URL redirection enabled. This solution allows users to access URLs from their VDI sessions, even when their VDI desktop pools are not granted access to the internet.

URL redirection enables the View Agent to redirect the URL requests from the VDI desktops to the local system's browser. The local browser then accesses the requested URLs on behalf of the user, bypassing any internet restrictions on the VDI desktop.

Option B, installing View Client with URL redirection enabled, is not a viable solution, as View Client is used to access the VDI desktop, not URLs.

Option C, enabling clipboard sharing, is not relevant to the scenario, as it does not address the requirement to access URLs from the VDI sessions.

Option D, enabling client drive redirection, also does not address the requirement to access URLs from the VDI sessions.

Therefore, the correct answer is A, Install View Agent with URL redirection enabled.
