Abstract
Systems and methods for geographic-aware virtual desktops are disclosed. In one example, a pool of network addresses can be maintained. Each network address can be associated with a respective geographical location. The pool of network addresses can include network addresses associated with different respective geographical locations. A geographical location associated with a client device accessing a virtual desktop can be determined. An external-facing network address can be selected from the pool of network addresses based on the geographical location associated with the client device. The external-facing network address can be assigned for network traffic associated with the virtual desktop.
