Infinity Connect client settings
There are various configuration settings available within the Infinity Connect clients. The table below provides information about each of these settings.
Note that administrators can change, disable or provide default text for many of these settings by Customizing the Infinity Connect clients.
Administrators can also provision individual Infinity Connect desktop client users with their registration details and automatically apply those registration settings to their client. See Registering and provisioning the Infinity Connect clients for more information.
