When the network experiences periods of high congestion what will happen to the users experience?
PCoIP will adjust to the network conditions to deliver the best PCoIP experience possible, for the given network conditions, for the user. During periods of congestion the user experience: A blurry or compressed image Momentary block screens Stuttering …
How do I change the FQDN (Fully Qualified Domain Name) of a PCoIP Zero Client?
First, change the PCoIP name to a new name. Currently, the "PCoIP Device Name" can only be changed on an individual basis in two locations: The  "OSD--> Configuration--> Label"  tab The  "AWI--> Configuration--> Label"  tab The default format is  …
Random individual and mass client disconnects due to Cisco VSS Inter-switch links
Problem Random individual client disconnect, or mass client disconnects when connecting clients (PCoIP Software Clients, VMware View Clients, or PCoIP Zero Clients) connected to HP Anyware or VMware View virtual desktops.   Cause There have been observed …
What are the priorities for video, audio, and USB PCoIP traffic?
PCoIP technology gives priority to USB and audio, while imaging uses remaining available bandwidth. PCoIP technology optimizes user experience for a given bandwidth by adaptively controlling quality and update rate of the image data, and optionally …
How does PCoIP handle networks with high traffic volumes?
When you plan to use PCoIP on network with high volumes of other traffic that may cause congestion, it is recommended that QoS is implemented to give PCoIP guaranteed bandwidth. PCoIP will adjust to use it's fair share of the network but UDP is typically …
Could the use of two DVI channels be a sources for delay which might cause jitter in a PCoIP Remote Workstation Card configuration?
Using the two DVI channels on a PCoIP Zero Client to PCoIP Remote Workstation Card with the Dual-link DVI connector converter to achieve a 2560x1600 resolution is NOT a source for delay which might cause jitter. The use of two DVI channels could be one of …
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 …
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 …
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 …
