Standard Server - Is the first instance of a group of Connection Servers.
Replica Server - Additional Standard Connection Servers are called Replica Servers. Replica Servers can be used to provide high‐availability and load balancing.

Each replica server has a local LDAP instance (using Microsoft's ADAM), the View LDAP data on the replica server is copied from an existing View Connection Server when a new one is installed.
Security Server - In a DMZ a Security server can be installed to add additional protection. Security servers ensure only authenticated users can connect to the internal network from external locations by providing a single point of access.
Transfer Server - A Transfer Server is required when using local desktop (aka offline mode).
