Table 52. INI parameters (continued)
INI parameters Description
[ConnectionBroker =
TeradiciCloudAccess]
New value TeradiciCloudAccess is added for INI ConnectionBroker to set Teradici as
the broker.
TeradiciCloudAccess is the Teradici broker, and it is only available with the PCoIP
build.
[Swap={no, yes}]
The default value is no. The Yes or no option is used with older ThinOS 7.x builds to
swap dual monitors when Mainscreen is set as 1 or 2. Swap=yes puts monitor 2 on
the left, or on top of monitor 1 according to the orientation.
[Include=<$mac.ini file or
{username}.ini file>]
<$MAC.ini> loads /wnos/inc/mac-address.ini.
<$EMAC.ini> loads /wnos/inc/<ethernet 1 interface mac>.ini
<$WMAC.ini> loads /wnos/inc/<wireless interface mac>.ini
NOTE: The file name does not include the symbol : in the MAC address. See
also the Exit parameter for information on how to stop the Include parameter.
<{username}.ini> Loads /wnos/inc/ {username}-address.ini.
The file name does not include the symbol: in the {username} address. See also the
Exit parameter for information on how to stop the Include parameter.
