7 <p>As a special feature additional to the VRDP support, <ph conkeyref="vbox-conkeyref-phrases/product-name"/> also
8 supports remote USB devices over the wire. That is, an <ph conkeyref="vbox-conkeyref-phrases/product-name"/> guest
9 that runs on one computer can access the USB devices of the remote computer on which the VRDP data is being
10 displayed the same way as USB devices that are connected to the actual host. This enables running of virtual
11 machines on an <ph conkeyref="vbox-conkeyref-phrases/product-name"/> host that acts as a server, where a client
12 can connect from elsewhere that needs only a network adapter and a display capable of running an RDP viewer. When
13 USB devices are plugged into the client, the remote <ph conkeyref="vbox-conkeyref-phrases/product-name"/> server
14 can access them. </p>
15 <p>For these remote USB devices, the same filter rules apply as for other USB devices. See <xref
16 href="settings-usb.dita">USB Settings</xref>. All you have to do is specify Remote, or Any, when setting up
17 these rules. </p>
18 <p>Accessing remote USB devices is only possible if the RDP client supports this extension. Some versions of
19 <userinput>uttsc</userinput>, a client tailored for the use with Sun Ray thin clients, support accessing remote
20 USB devices. RDP clients for other platforms will be provided in future <ph
21 conkeyref="vbox-conkeyref-phrases/product-name"/> versions. </p>
