Method 1: Using VMware Horizon Client (Recommended)

Step 1 - Open your VMware Horizon Client software.

 

Step 2 - Click on Add Server → Enter the Server Name 'virtuallab.apu.edu.my' → Click on Connect.

 

Horizon Client will attempt to connect you to the server. If a connection is established, you will be prompt to enter your APKey Credential.
