Lock down settings let you enforce settings for the Jump Desktop Connect app from your team's web dashboard. Once settings are assigned to a machine, it can not be changed from the Jump Desktop Connect app running on the host machines.

You can apply settings to individual machines on your team or to entire access groups. 

Requirements 

• Currently only available for Teams Enterprise billing plan.

How to get started with Lockdown settings.

1. Visit https://app.jumpdesktop.com and sign into your team's dashboard.
2. Click the Connect Settings icon.
3. Click New Configuration and give it a name and then click Save.
4. Next assign it to the machines you want the settings to be enforced on (you can change the settings or the assignment later).

You'll notice that the Configuration window lists quite a few configuration options that are not available inside the Jump Desktop Connect app - such as the ability to turn off screen sharing, adding remote access users, configuring fluid ports. Here's a screenshot of what you can configure:

Once settings are applied to machines, the Jump Desktop Connect app on the machines will display a message in the Settings window: Settings are managed by your team's administrator.

Jump Desktop for Mac will now remember your connection's last window position and will automatically restore it the next time you connect.

The feature is enabled by default, however you can turn if off in: Jump Desktop -> Preferences -> Restore window positions.

You can now adjust how quickly Fluid will send display updates remote computer. By default Fluid tries to target 60 frames per second (fps) for a smooth experience. You can now dynamically change this while connected. This is quite useful when you want to save CPU or bandwidth. Switching to 30fps roughly cuts the bandwidth and cpu requirements in half. 

To change the frame rate for Fluid connections connect to a computer and click Remote -> Framerate and select a frame rate. Jump will automatically adjust the frame rate dynamically. 

You can now lock the mouse cursor while connected to a remote machine. This makes it possible to play 3D first person shooters and certain 3D graphics apps that rely on mouse delta movements.  

To enable mouse pointer locking, connect to the remote computer using Fluid and then click Remote -> Lock Mouse Cursor. 

To unlock the cursor press and hold the ESC key on your keyboard.

Jump Desktop Connect and Jump Desktop for Mac now support completely cloudless Fluid connections. This means that you can now use Fluid without any cloud dependencies. This is useful for environments that require super-high security or otherwise don't have access to the internet.

Limitations of Cloudless Fluid Connections

• Important Security note: Team Access Control restrictions do not apply to manual connections. You are responsible for all firewall and security surrounding the connection. The connection to the machine will be allowed access as long as they can connect to the machine's IP address and they know a local user name and password. The connection will be encrypted end-to-end.
• Only available on Teams Enterprise plans.

How to Enable Cloudless Fluid On The Remote Computer

There are two ways to enable Cloudless Fluid Connections - you can use either way:

1. In your Team's dashboard use the Lock down settings feature. Specifically you'll need to turn on the Manual Fluid Connections option:

2. Alternative way if the computer does not have any access to the cloud: Open up Jump Desktop Connect on the remote computer and then click the Settings icon -> Advanced -> CHECK Fluid -> CHECK Manual Fluid Connections.

How to Connect to Computers With Cloudless Fluid Enabled

You can connect to cloudless fluid using Jump Desktop for Mac by creating a new Manual connection: 

1. Open up Jump Desktop for Mac or Windows. 
2. Make sure you are signed in your Teams Enterprise account. This will unlock the Cloudless Fluid feature.
3. Click File -> Add New.
4. You should now see a new Fluid option in the Type area. Click Fluid and enter the machine's IP address to connect.

We've completely re-written how multi-monitor works when connecting via Fluid. This is game changing for users with multiple monitors. No seriously...

Jump Desktop now supports opening up your remote displays in separate windows simultaneously. This makes it possible for you to arrange the remote computer's displays anyway you want. For example - if you have 3 monitors on your local machine and 2 on the remote machine, you can now use 2 monitors to view the remote machine and the other monitor for your emails, Slack, Zoom etc.

Together with the new restore windows feature and Fluid's automatic display resolution matching this makes an amazing multi-monitor experience.

To start using the new multi-monitor experience for fluid:

1. Open up Jump Desktop for Mac. 
2. Connect to your machine and then click View -> Displays In Separate Windows.

You'll then see windows for each remote display. Arrange the windows however you like - go full-screen move it side by side, or even close a window if you don't want to see that monitor - it's up to you. The next time you connect to the same machine Jump will remember your windows positions and arrange it automatically. 

With Single Sign-On (SSO) your team can sign into Jump Desktop using your company account credentials. 

To get started visit Setup Single Sign On for Teams. 

This feature is available on Teams Enterprise plans.

Team admins can reset 2-step verification for team users. 

If 2-step verification is required for the team, users will be prompted to re-enable 2-step verification the next time they sign into Jump Desktop apps. 

This feature is available on Teams Enterprise plans.

Team admins can now see which Jump Desktop apps each user is signed into and log them off remotely. 

To see where each user is signed in, drill down to the user in your Teams dashboard and see the 'Where this user is signed in' section. 

This feature is available on Teams Enterprise plans.

Team admins can now make sure team members always use 2-Step Verification to sign into their Jump Desktop accounts. 

Turn on the requirement in the Security section of your Team's dashboard. 

Be sure to also turn on the new 'Disable Social Sign-in' feature to make sure team members always use 2-step verification. 

This feature is available on the Teams Pro and Teams Enterprise plans.
