2.5 Running the Management Console
Before running the MC, make sure the MC host machine and PCoIP devices are connected to
the same network. The MC supports both DHCP and static IP addressing.
As the VM boots, the VMware console shows a series of standard Linux boot messages
before the MC console interface shown in Figure 2-1 appears.
Once the VM is started, the MC URL (web site address) appears. The URL is equal to
http://192.168.50.132 as shown in the following figure.
Note: Along the bottom of the window, the VMware Player describes how to interact with the
VM and how to return to the host OS.
