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 …
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 …
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 …
