What is Intelligent Packet Re-Transmission in PCoIP Protocol?
PCoIP Protocol uses UDP protocol similar to other real-time protocols (voice-over-IP, interactive video conferencing etc).  This is done to minimize the overhead associated with TCP protocol.  However, reliable transmission of data is important for remote …
Can I share the network connection of the PCoIP Remote Workstation Card with that of the host PC/workstation?
No, the network interface on the PCoIP Remote Workstation Card is independent to that of the host. It is not possible to communicate to the host operating system via the PCoIP Remote Workstation Card network interface. Therefore, you must connect both the …
What happens when a PCoIP Packet is lost in transit?
When a PCoIP packet is lost or considered lost, the PCoIP protocol makes an intelligent decision on if the packet should be re-transmitted. PCoIP packets containing audio and sometimes imaging may never be re-transmitted as the next sample of audio or new …
What congestion avoidance should be used in network switches and routers?
Weighted Random Early Discard (WRED) should be configured as the congestion avoidance, or congestion management method. WRED gradually drops packets while considering IP precedence, as network devices become congested. This allows PCoIP protocol …
Is there any bandwidth consumed when a PCoIP device is idle?
The idle bandwidth depends on the PCoIP host type. Below are the idle bandwidths for different host types: HP Anyware 2.12 and newer, the idle bandwidth consumed is 1-2 kbps. VMware View 4.5 (using PCoIP Software 3.5) and earlier, the idle bandwidth …
Why does traffic to my PCoIP Remote Workstation Card exceed the configured bandwidth settings?
Problem After setting the bandwidth limits on the PCoIP Remote Workstation Card in the PCoIP Remote Workstation Card AWI, excessive traffic is seen going to the PCoIP Remote Workstation Card from the PCoIP Zero Client. Cause PCoIP Remote Workstation …
Why is the image quality reduced for a couple seconds right after a session is connected?
This is expected behaviour during the first couple seconds when a PCoIP session is established and is caused by the PCoIP device's bandwidth management algorithm. The algorithm continuously optimizes the amount of network traffic a PCoIP device generates …
What does GSOAP :tera_gsoap_tls_shutdown: tera_rtos_event_get timeout mean in the log?
Problem Message GSOAP :tera_gsoap_tls_shutdown: tera_rtos_event_get timeout is found in host or client log file.   Cause GSOAP is the protocol used by the PCoIP Management Console 1.x. This error is caused by a socket being opened by GSOAP and not closed …
