Description
Failed to launch virtual desktop: Socket Error 10051

Resolution
Disable DNS resolution from the DDC site by the below PowerShell command:
asnp Citrix*
Set-BrokerSite -DnsResolutionEnabled 0
Problem Cause
DNS resolution is enabled on DDC, as a result, .ica file will contain VDA's fqdn instead of IP address.
While DNS server is not configured on client side, it cannot resolve VDA's fqdn.
