CHAPTER 7: DEVICES
7.3.4 TIMER SETTINGS
There are two timer settings available. By default they are turned off. The Administrator clicks enable to turn them on and set the
timer value required. The two timer settings are:
1. OSD Inactivity Timer—This sets a limit on how long a user can be logged on to the InvisaPC OSD without any keyboard or mouse
activity. Once the user reaches the inactivity timer limit, the user will be logged out of the OSD.
2. Connection Inactivity Timer—This sets a limit on how long a user can be connected to a source (virtual machine, Transmitter
etc.) without any keyboard or mouse activity. Once the session reaches the inactivity timer limit, the user will be logged out of the
connection and return to the OSD on InvisaPC.
NOTE: Inactivity occurs when the mouse or keyboard is not pressed or moved for a set period of time.
7.3.5 RDP BROKER SETTINGS
There are two types of Broker types—Connection Broker Server and Web Access Server. The default is none, which means the system
uses a connection broker. The Broker type is used to validate the User Credentials (username and password) and determine where
the user will be connected to.
The Connection Broker type causes the User Credentials to be sent to the specified Connection Broker. If accepted, then the broker
will return the IP address of a local VM from the pool, and this is the IP address used for a connection from the InvisaPC Receiver.
NOTE: We currently do not cater for hostnames, so use the IP of the connection broker server.
When "Connection Broker Server" type is selected, the following settings should be set by the Administrator:
1. Enter in the domain name as defined on the local network.
2. Enter in your load balance address as defined in the local server configured, e.g. tsv://VMResource.1.Win7Pool.
The "Web Access Server" setting is used to allow access to a local copy of Active Domain server. If this setting is configured
correctly, then if a user who is not configured in the local database attempts to login, the device will redirect the username and
password to the local active directory installation and validate the user credentials.
If the user is validated, the Active Directory Server will return a valid VM pool-name to the device. The device sends this pool-name
information to the Connection Broker which then allocates a Virtual Machine to the User provided a VM is available.
The following settings need to be set when "Web Access Server" is selected as Broker Connection Type:
1. The Web Access Address should be the login page of the local RD Web Access Server using its IP address, e.g.
https://192.168.10.7/RDWeb/Pages/en-US/login.aspx.
NOTE: We currently do not cater for hostnames in the web address, so please use the IP of the Web Access server. You must place
the full address in the login page of the RD Web Access server (https://*************.apsx).
2. Enter the local Connection Broker IP address.
3. Enter the local domain name.
