Description
Enter the DNS name or IP address of the connection manager.
When enabled, the "Network Connection Lost" overlay appears on
the display(s) when a loss of network connectivity is detected. It also
appears in the case of a virtual desktop such as VMware View.
Normal hypervisor scheduling delays can falsely trigger this
message. This option is disabled by default.
Note: This option is only available for a zero client. Desktop
applications that require the peer loss notification should re-enable
the feature through the OSD, Administrative Web Interface, or PCoIP
Management Console.
When enabled, the "Preparing Desktop" overlay appears on the
display(s) when you log in. This option is disabled by default.
Note: This overlay provides assurance that login is proceeding if the
desktop takes more than a few seconds to appear.
Controls if the host and client devices send the contents of their event
logs to the connection management server.
Configure the Transport Layer Security (TLS) cipher the client will
use to negotiate the TLS session between the PCoIP client and the
PCoIP host:
TLS 1.0 with RSA keys and AES-256 or AES-128 encryption:
l
This option provides maximum compatibility.
TLS 1.2 with Suite B-compliant 192-bit elliptic curve
l
encryption. This option provides a higher level of security.
Enable or disable an encryption mode for the host or client. By
default, both encryption modes are enabled:
AES-128-GCM: An encryption method implemented in the
l
TERA1x100 processor that allows best performance between
hardware endpoints.
Salsa20-256-Round12: A lighter encryption method
l
implemented in firmware that may offer improved performance
when connecting to VMware View 4 or later when there is more
than about 7 Mbps available on the network. (See TER0904005
Using PCoIP Zero Clients with VMware View for more
information.)
Note: The enabled encryption mode must match between the host
and client for a session to be established. If both modes are enabled,
the firmware selects:
Host to client: AES-128-GCM for the PCoIP session
l
VMware View 4.5 and later to client: SALSA20-256-Round12 for
l
the PCoIP session
