8.3 Configuring a Zero Client
PCoIP zero clients are secure client endpoints that allow users to connect to a virtual
desktop or remote host workstation over a local or wide area IP network.
8.3.1 Setting up the Zero Client
For detailed instructions on how to physically set up a zero client and connect it to USB
devices, monitors, and the network, please see "Tera2 PCoIP® Zero Client Quick Start
Guide" (TER1207007). This guide has detailed instructions for each step of the installation
process.
Note: If your network does not support DHCP, the card's default IP address will be
192.168.1.50.
8.3.2 Establishing a PCoIP Session
Note: Zero clients are pre-configured to connect directly to a PCoIP host card, but you can
easily configure them for any session connection type.
After successfully completing the installation steps outlined in "Tera2 PCoIP® Zero Client
Quick Start Guide" (TER1207007), the zero client will be powered on and ready to use. The
next step is to initiate a PCoIP session. The easiest way to get started is to connect to a host
card using SLP host discovery.
