Launch GUI
Zoom client installation includes a client proxy service that is automatically installed on the desktop. The proxy listens on HTTP port 7770 for commands. Application plugins can invoke JSP based services on this port to access the local working copy assets as well as invoke commands to launch Zoom UI via the HTTP proxy.
