BCX Client Policy

This section needs a re-write on completion of development:

The Client Policy Settings allow you make global changes to existing client policies

To view/change Client Policy Settings, click File - Tool - Client Policy. From here you are able to change the Default Client Policy or create new policies.

Here you can set a descriptive policy name, a priority, it's station assignments, and whether it's enabled.

Enable Pre Logon UI – When checked this will allow pre logon messages to be displayed.

Show Package Task Deployment – When checked the BCX Client will display packages installing.

Show Network Status – When checked the network status check is performed on startup, and will display the working offline message if relevant.

Enable Managed Wallpaper - When checked this stops users choosing their own wallpaper

Default package task timeout period – The amount of time to wait for a package task exit gracefully. If 90 minutes has passed BCX will assume the package task has failed, kill the process and will mark as timeout. We would only recommend changing this if there is a specific reason to, after consultation with a BCX engineer.

Enabling the RDP option makes the client use the RDP host when processing assignments rather than the users station.
