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 …

What does "IPC: Frame encode took xxx ms so far. Dropping down the quality to index x." in the log files indicate?
Answer: In this case, the imaging encoder has determined that too many bits were being sent in the upper portion of the frame (i.e. flooding) which causes the frame to take longer to encode, and therefore appears unresponsive to the user (> 750 ms to …

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 …
