The VNC/RFB access profile (connection method) is used to connect to non-Windows systems or when cross-platform access is required. Virtual Network Computing (VNC) is a graphical desktop-sharing system that uses the Remote Frame Buffer protocol (RFB) to remotely control another computer.
To access the VNC/RFB Access Profile settings, navigate to Configuration Manager>Access Profiles then click Add and select VNC/RFB. Alternatively, double click an VNC/RFB profile from the list or select it and click Edit.
