Description Tony James 2016-10-21 19:22:25 UTC
Currently USB filters can be used to prevent automatic redirection of USB devices to a virtual machine.  Users can however, manually redirect USB devices through virt-viewer.  For more secure environments it would be helpful to be able to prevent this.

Hi Tony,

while I agree this is a desireable feature for virtual Desktops, I don't see us focussing on this one.

As such closing this BZ. Let us know if there is some strong business justification for this feature.
