Hi Tyro Beatty, I want to help you with this question.
The Global Secure Access (GSA) client in Microsoft Entra serves a distinct purpose and does not directly replace the Azure Virtual Desktop (AVD) client. The AVD client is essential for seamless interaction with Azure Virtual Desktop environments. GSA client enhances security within the Microsoft Entra ecosystem.
There are also some limitations of GSA at the moment:
- No support for multiple user sessions on the same device (e.g., Remote Desktop Server).
- Potential issues with networks using captive portals.
- Not yet supported on ARM64 architecture (though it’s on the roadmap).
- Specific limitations based on the traffic forwarding profile used.
I hope this will answer your questions.
