That is correct for us too. The people that need the network access are people that care for the network and systems and know their way around the network so they will not need a webtop. But the other users that just have a few portal and app tunnels - they need the webtop.

 

Unfortunately, upper management will not allow me to tell the other people to use IE or FireFox only to access F5 apm - they want the Big-ip client to work as well. So I am back to my issue - I need to be able to use the big-ip client to connect to the F5 apm and be able to launch the webtop.
