Administrator Guide for Thin Clients | HP Velocity
System settings
System settings (Table 5 on page 15) specify the following parameters:
• Operational Mode—Set the HP Velocity operational mode.
• Single-sided Acceleration—(HP Velocity Thin Client only) Provide client side TCP flow acceleration to a non HP
Velocity endpoint.
• LiveQ Mode—Provide packet loss protection to application flows. For more information, see LiveQ - Packet Loss
Protection settings on page 19.
• LiveTCP Mode—Provide latency mitigation to application flows. For more information, see LiveTCP - Latency
Mitigation settings on page 20.
• LiveWiFi - Prioritization—Accelerate application flows by leveraging Wi-Fi multimedia standards to minimize latency
and prioritize HP Velocity traffic. This ensures that HP Velocity-protected flows experience lower latency and jitter, and
higher throughput.
• TCP Option Beacon (TCP Flows)—Use the TCP option beacon (0x0100000000000000) for TCP flows.
• TCP Telemetry Mode (TCP Flows)— Collect remote metrics for TCP flows.
Table 5: System settings
Note: When the TCP Option Beacon setting is enabled, HP Velocity adds up to 4 bytes of data to TCP headers. This is in
compliance with RFC 791 and RFC 793. Some applications might not be compliant with RFC 791 or RFC 793, and as a
result might not be able to process TCP option beacons. If this occurs, disabling the TCP Option Beacon setting should
resolve the issue.
Parameter Options Default
Operational Mode
• Enabled: Provide session establishment, session
statistics, packet loss protection, Wi-Fi optimization,
and latency mitigation.
• Monitor: Continuously profile end-to-end network
conditions over established flows. (HP Velocity network
optimizers are not applied.)
• Disabled: Pass all application flows transparently and
do not perform any monitoring or optimization.
