Patent Images
1. A computing environment, comprising:
- a client machine including a local low level device insertion detection system (LLDID), having at least one device connected thereto by a universal serial bus port; and
a remote machine connected to the client machine by a remoting protocol, the remote machine including;
an application configured to determine whether to use at least one of a driver on the client machine and a driver on the remote machine to configure the at least one device.

Abstract
A system and method of configuring a USB device connected to a client machine includes detecting, by a local low level device insertion detection system of a client machine, a USB device connected to the client machine by a USB port, the client machine in communication with a remote machine via a remoting protocol; establishing, by the low level device insertion detection system of the client machine, a low-level connection by a USB remoting with a low level device insertion detection system executing in the remote machine; executing, by the remote machine, an application to determine whether to use a driver on the client machine or a driver on the remote machine to configure the device.

6. A method of configuring at least one device connected to a client machine, the method comprising:
-
detecting, by a local low level device insertion detection system of a client machine, at least one device connected to the client machine by a universal serial bus port, the client machine in communication with a remote machine by a remoting protocol; establishing, by the local low level device insertion detection system of the client machine, a low-level connection, by a universal serial bus remoting, with a low level device insertion detection system executing in the remote machine; and executing, by an operating system in the remote machine, a configurable application to determine whether to use at least one of a driver on the client machine and a driver on the remote machine to configure the at least one device. - View Dependent Claims (7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12)

13. A method for remotely configuring a device associated with a local machine, the method comprising:
-
communicating, by a local low level device insertion detection system, to a remote driver executing in a remote machine that a device is connected to a local machine by a universal serial bus port, wherein the communication is via a universal serial bus remoting; removing, by the remote machine, the universal serial bus remoting; detecting, by the remote machine, at least one property of the device; determining, by a configurable application executing in the remote machine, whether the local machine includes a driver for configuring the device; configuring, by the local machine, the device when the local machine includes a driver for executing the device; configuring, by the remote machine, the device when the local machine lacks a driver for executing the device; using the device in a remote session between the local machine and the remote machine, wherein the remote session is via a high-level remoting. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
