Which policy enables re-authentication reconnect after a network interruption?

• A. Load Management
• B. Auto Client Reconnect
• C. Session Reliability
• D. ICA Keep Alive

Answer: (B)

Auto Client Reconnect focuses on automatically re-establishing a user’s session after a network interruption, including performing re-authentication if the session requires it. When this policy is enabled, if the connection to the Citrix environment drops and then comes back, the client attempts to reconnect to the same session without manual intervention. If the session has timed out or requires credentials again, the user is prompted to re-authenticate, but the goal is to restore the session quickly and transparently. This minimizes disruption during transient network issues, which is why it’s the best choice for re-authentication reconnect after a network interruption. In contrast, Session Reliability keeps ICA traffic intact during short outages but doesn’t specifically guarantee automatic reconnect after a full disconnect; ICA Keep Alive merely sends periodic messages to avoid idle timeouts, and Load Management deals with distributing load rather than reconnection behavior.
