You can create a direct connection between a zero client and a host, where the zero client and host 
are not connected to a network. You might use this type of PCoIP deployment if, for example: 
  There is already a ClearCube deployment using direct connections (such as C/Ports) in 
your enterprise. 
  If you do not want PCoIP traffic on your corporate network. 
NOTE:  ClearCube recommends using static IPs in this configuration. Using the zero client’s or 
host’s static, fallback IP addresses significantly increases the time for devices to become 
available because fallback IP addresses are only available after a timeout period. 
The following figure shows the architecture described in this section.
