PCoIP Zero Client and Host Administrator Guide (Issue 5)

Note: SLP host discovery requires the zero client and host PC to reside on the same subnet.
You also need to know the IP address and/or MAC address of the host card so you can
select it from the list of available hosts. In addition, the host card must be configured to
accept any peer or to accept the specific MAC address of the zero client. You can
configure this from the host AWI Configuration > Session > Direct from Client page.
To connect to a host card using SLP host discovery:
1. From the Options > Configuration > Session menu on the zero client's OSD, select
the Direct to Host + SLP Host Discovery connection type, and then click OK.
2. Click the Connect button.
3. When the Discovered Hosts screen appears with a list of available hosts, select the
desired one by its IP/MAC address pair, and then click OK.
4. If prompted, enter your user name and password, and then click OK.
When connected successfully, your display shows your desktop on the host, and the zero
client's session LED on the front panel turns green.
To establish a session using another session connection type:
1. From the zero client's OSD, select the Options > Configuration > Session menu.
2. From the Connection Type drop-down list, select the desired connection type:
l Direct to Host

l PCoIP Connection Manager + Auto-Logon (Tera2 only)
l View Connection Server

l View Connection Server + Imprivata OneSign
l Connection Management Interface
3. After entering the required information, click OK on the Session page.
4. Click the Connect button.
5. If prompted, enter your user name and password.
6. If you are using a brokered connection and have more than one entitlement, select the
desired one, and then click Connect.
When connected successfully, your display shows your desktop on the host, and the zero
client's session LED on the front panel turns green.
