Browser

• Firefox, Chrome—App Portal / App Broker also supports Firefox and Chrome browsers; however these browsers do not support Active X and therefore will always discover the computer using the Reverse DNS discovery method.

Note:The fall back to ReverseDNS on these browsers is only done if ActiveX is the primary computer discovery method chosen. If the discovery method is set to SCCM, then App Portal / App Broker will honor that for all browsers.
