About VMware Horizon View server settings and SSL offloading
If you want to use Access Policy Manager (APM) to offload SSL from
VMware Horizon View servers, you must configure your VMware Horizon View servers for SSL
offloading. For more information, refer to the administration guide for your VMware
Horizon View server and search for Off-load SSL Connections.
When configured to provide single sign-on to VMware Identity Manager, APM does not support SSL offloading; APM does, however, support SSL bridging in this case.
