How Do I Enable or Disable the Emergency Mode for a Desktop?

Scenarios

To enable or disable the emergency mode for a desktop, you need to configure a whitelist. Submit a service ticket for technical support.

Enabling the emergency mode

After a whitelist is configured, if the cloud desktop server disconnects from the AD server or the connection request times out, and other auxiliary authentication modes are disabled, the emergency mode will be automatically enabled. Some cloud desktop functions will be disabled, as shown in Table 1.

Disabling the emergency mode
