How to start a web browser after starting a Pulse session?

[globix_]

Hello,

My user need to access different application on my network. To simplify this I'd like to use Pulse.

Then my user need to access a specific web app... and it would be great if we can automatically launch a web browser to access this web app...

How can I do this?

I see I can use a start session script, but when I enter "iexplore.exe" nothing happens.... (It is notpossible to deploy a bat file on the remote PC )

Is there another way with or without script...

Thank you for you help

I believe this can only be done using a startup script. Also, you do need to have a script file location specified (iexplore.exe wont work). You could put the sctipt on a share and point to the same. When Pulse launches, it would create a copy of the file in the Temp directory. This way, you need not manually deploy the file to all clients.

Thank you for your answer.

I had another idea.... but not so sexy...

The user logs in on the SA with the portal page.

Then he launches the Pulse client

And finally, I create 1 bookmark for the webapp with no rewritting.... that way ... when he connects it goes through the tunnel...

Not automatic but shoud work as well...

If you check "Auto-launch" in the user role under "Network Connect" the Pulse Client will start as soon as the user logs in to the SA.

So: User logs into SA -> Pulse Client lauches automatically -> he/she will see your bookmark on the start page.
