Session Connection Types
There are four main session connection types:
l Direct to Host (with option for SLP host discovery)
l PCoIP Connection Manager (with option for Auto-Logon)
l View Connection Server (with various options)
l Connection Management Interface
Direct to Host Sessions
A Direct to Host session is a direct connection between a zero client and a remote
workstation containing a PCoIP host card. You can specify a host's DNS name or IP
address, or you can configure clients to use Service Location Protocol (SLP) to discover a
host. You can also configure cllients to automatically reconnect to a host when a session is
lost.

PCoIP Connection Manager (Tera2 Clients Only)
A PCoIP Connection Manager session is a connection between a Tera2 zero client and a
Teradici solution (e.g., the Teradici Arch™ published desktop solution) using the PCoIP
Connection Manager as a broker. You can configure this session type in basic mode or
Auto-Logon mode.
