Troubleshooting VDI Module in ControlUp DEX

Posted on July 18, 2024

There were issues with getting the VDI module in DEX to work properly for the help desk team. SAML was causing issues, and a security policy needed to be set up to accept SSO users. A video was suggested and it was recommended to check a certain box in the login methods. The prompt for UPN meant a different logon method was used, so the team was reminded to use SAML. The UPN should be listed if logged on with SAML. By suppressing the other method and reminding the help desk, the issue was resolved.

New Remote Control Feature for Non-Domain/Corporate Devices and IP Restrictions in ControlUp

Posted on April 8, 2024

There was a discussion about the new Remote Control feature and whether non-Domain/Corporate devices can access it. The new feature is not dependent on Active Directory and only requires the agent to communicate with ControlUp's backend. Some companies may see this as a security risk, but it can be restricted to only allow access from corporate-owned devices by setting up the SAML provider. The required URLs for communication can be found at https://support.controlup.com/docs/agent-outbound-communication#required-urls and more information about remote controlling VDI/DAAS devices can be found at https://support.controlup.com/docs/remote-control-your-vdi-daas-devices. The group also discussed the importance of thoroughly reading and understanding the documentation before asking questions.
