so that anyone opens a link in perspective workstation, it opens a new window in the browser?

Workstation will use the default browser as setup on the machine (OS Settings) that runs Workstation.

Hi, thanks for replying but I am asking if there is Tab/Windows Settings in the gateway or somewhere that I can set it to System Browser by default so that it when a user clicks a link in any perspective workstation, it opens a browser by default.  
We have multiple PCs that use workstation and having something like that setup in the gateway would save so much time.
