NOTE:

TS Gateway - WebSocket is a new feature introduced from ThinOS version 8.5.
In TS Gateway II or III connection, the setup uses a two half-duplex communication between Terminal Server (TS) Gateway server and thin client.
In the WebSocket connection, the session connection setup uses a duplex communication between TS Gateway and thin client
TS Gateway II and TS Gateway III are downward compatible with Windows Server 2016, that means, if the WebSocket connection fails or the TS Gateway server or thin client version does not support WebSocket, then TS Gateway II or TS Gateway III is used.

The following screenshot displays the TS Gateway II connection setup logs:

The following screenshot displays the TS Gateway III connection setup logs:

NOTE:

WebSocket connection log is hidden and not displayed in the Event Log tab. If you want to view the WebSocket connection log, go to Troubleshooting > Capture and enable Persistent for the export event log.
From the ThinOS v8.6 release onwards, the WebSocket feature is disabled by default. To enable WebSocket, deploy the following INI parameter:
Sessionconfig=RDP TSGWWebSock=yes.
