l Enter the View Connection Server's IP address or domain name for the External
URL (e.g. 192.168.1.140:443 or https://myserver.com:443).
3. From the zero client's AWI:
l Configure the View Connection Server session connection type, and enter the DNS
name or IP address of the View Connection Server.
4. Start a PCoIP session.

6.5 Common Remote Access Scenarios
6.5.1 Connecting Remotely
PCoIP sessions between clients and hosts can operate in a wide area network (WAN) that
traverses the Internet. You can connect clients and hosts remotely using the following main
methods:
l Configuring network address translation (NAT) devices at both ends to implement the
necessary IP address and port translation. This method applies only to Tera2 devices that
employ UDP-encapsulated IPsec ESP encryption (firmware 4.1.0 or later).
l Setting up a VPN to connect two trusted networks over an intermediate untrusted
network.
l Using a security server/connection server pair to secure and broker the outside client to
the trusted inside network.
The scenarios listed below describe some common ways you can connect PCoIP endpoints
remotely.
l Scenario 1: Connecting a remote zero client to a host card.
l Scenario 2: Connecting a remote zero client to a host card over a hardware VPN.
l Scenario 3: Using a third-party broker to connect a remote zero client to a host card.
l Scenario 4: Using a View Security Server/View Connection Server pair to broker a
connection between a remote zero client and a host card.
l Scenario 5: Using a View Security Server/View Connection Server pair to broker a
connection between a zero client and a View virtual desktop.
l Scenario 6: Using a View Security Server/View Connection Server pair to broker a
connection between a remote View software client and a host card.
l Scenario 7: Using View Connection Servers for remote and internal connections.
Note: You can also use the Teradici Arch™ published desktop solution over a WAN to
connect a PCoIP client to a Microsoft published desktop using PCoIP as the remote protocol.
