What is an acceptable level of packet loss?
Just like VoIP and video conferencing, PCoIP is a real time protocol. Once a packet is lost in transit, there typically isn't time to re transmit before the PCoIP session is impacted. Therefore, the most acceptable level of loss is 0%. Packet loss maybe …
How much latency does PCoIP technology add to the remote system?
The latency added by PCoIP technology to a remote system is related to the time to encode (compression) and decode (decompression) for the PCoIP protocol, which depends on the implementation. Total end-to-end latency is determined by OS latency and …
What network switch or router queue size should be used?
Network device queues, also known as network buffer's, should be configured to accommodate 50ms to 100ms of PCoIP protocol traffic in total. This assumes that one network device (e.g. switch or router) is congested for a given network path. If the network …
What is the impact of minimum and maximum initial image quality on a PCoIP Session?
Minimum and maximum initial image quality sets the lower and upper quality level. The default values in HP Anyware is Q40 for the minimum initial image quality and Q80 for the maximum initial image quality. If PCoIP estimates there is adequate bandwidth …
Should I use an initial image quality of Q100?
An initial image quality of Q100 will deliver the highest quality of image PCoIP can deliver. Q100 is not lossless, for a lossless image, build to lossless must be enabled.  How to configure the Turn off Build-to-Lossless feature session variable in GPO …
Can a WAN accelerator be used to improve the performance of PCoIP sessions?
PCoIP does not benefit from a WAN accelerator, legacy WAN accelerator solutions use different methods to improve the performance of applications operating over congested networks. These methods include compressing packets, implementing proxy servers that …
Will out of order packets impact a PCoIP session?
PCoIP will work when packets are becoming out of order between the two PCoIP endpoints. Re-ordering packets on PCoIP endpoints requires that packets are held in a queue/buffer while waiting to receive the packets that need to be put back into order.  With …
