From the desktop menu, click System Setup, and then click Remote Connections.
The Remote Connections dialog box
is displayed.
In the Broker Setup tab, from the drop-down list, select the Broker type as None.
Click ICA connection protocol, and click Configure.
The Default ICA dialog box is displayed.
NOTE: : Default ICA is always used for direct connection to a published application and not for StoreFront or PNAgent.
Click the Connection tab.
To configure the ICA connections, do the following:
Server or Published Application—Select the type
of connection to which the settings apply.
Connection Description—Enter the descriptive name that is
to be displayed in the connection list (38 characters maximum).
Browser Servers—Enter a delimited (comma or semicolon)
list of IP addresses or DNS-registered names of ICA servers that contain
the master browsers list, or that can direct to another server that
contains the list.
The master browsers list is generated
automatically by a browsing program on one of the ICA servers (selected
by negotiation between servers). It is used to provide the information that is displayed in the Server Name or IP box. No entry is needed if the
list is on an ICA server in the same network segment as the thin client.
No entry is necessary if the connection is to a server, or if the
server name or IP contains the IP address of the server.
Host Name or Application Name (title depends on the Server
or Published Application option that is selected)—You can enter a delimited
semicolon or comma-separated list of server host names or IP addresses,
or you can select from the list of ICA servers or published applications that are obtained from the ICA master browser. You can also use Browse next to the box to make the selection you want.
If you enter a delimited list of
servers, the thin client will attempt to connect to the next server
on the list if the previous server attempt fails. If you use the list
and the selected connection fails, the thin client will attempt to
connect to the next one on the list.
NOTE: : The
Host Name may be resolved using one of three mechanisms: ICA master
browser, DNS, or WINS. Master browser is the only mechanism that can
resolve a published application unless manual entry is made in DNS
for the application. DNS uses the default domain name in the network
control panel to attempt to construct an FQDN. However, it tries to
resolve the name without using the default value.
Encryption Level—Allows you to select the security level
of communications between the thin client and the ICA server.
Basic (the default option)
is the lowest level of security. Basic enables faster communication
between the device and the ICA server because it requires less processing
than the higher levels of encryption.
NOTE: : The encryption selection
applies to the security of communications between the thin client
and the ICA server only. It is independent of the security settings
of individual applications on the ICA server. For example, most web
financial transactions require the thin client to use 128-bit encryption.
However, transaction information could be exposed to a lower level
of security if the thin client encryption is not also set to 128–bits.
Use HTTP for browsing—When selected, the thin client, by
default, uses HTTP when browsing.
Alternate address via firewall—When selected, the thin client
uses an alternate IP address that is returned from the ICA master browser
to get through firewall. This is used for the Windows login when the connection
is activated.
Display Resolution—Select the display resolution for this
connection.
If you select the Published Application option, the Connection Display allows you to select the Seamless
Display Resolution option.
Colors—Select the color depth of the ICA session. If High Colors (16-bits)
or True Colors is selected and the ICA server does not support
this color depth, the thin client sets the color depth to
the lower value, for example, 256 Colors (8-bits).
Window mode and Full screen mode—Select the initial
view of the application and desktop in a windowed screen or full screen.
Auto-connect on start-up—When this option is selected, the thin client automatically
connects the session on start-up.
Reconnect after disconnect—When this option is selected, the
thin client automatically reconnects to a session after a non operator-initiated
disconnect. The wait interval is the value that you set in the Delay
before reconnecting box (enter the number of seconds 1–3600). The default is 20
seconds, if there is no INI parameter used for this connection, or
if you are a stand-alone user.
Click logon tab, and use the following guidelines:
Logging on area—Enter username, password, domain
name, and logon mode.
If the login username, password, and domain name
boxes are not displayed, enter the information manually in
the ICA server login screen.
Login
Username—Maximum of 31 characters is allowed.
Password—Maximum of 19 characters is allowed.
Domain Name—Maximum of 31 characters is allowed.
Logon Mode—Select User-specified credentials, Smart Card, or Local User.
Start Command area—Server Connection Option Only—This area
is disabled for a Published Application option.
Application (127 characters maximum) and Working Directory (63 characters maximum)—Enter an initialization
string and arguments, including an associated working directory, that
you want to start automatically on the server when the connection
is made.
Click the Options tab, and use the following guidelines:
Autoconnect to local devices—Select any options (Printers,
Serials, USB, Smart Cards, and Disks) to have the thin client automatically
connect to the devices.
Allow font smoothing—When selected, enables font smoothing
(smooth type).
Optimize for low speed link—When selected, allows optimization
for low-speed connections, such as reducing audio quality and/or decreasing
protocol-specific cache size. Intended for a connection spanning a
WAN link or using dial-up.
Enable session reliability—When enabled, session reliability
allows you to momentarily lose connection to the server without
having to re-authenticate upon regaining a connection. Instead of
the connection time out, the session is kept
alive on the server and is made available to the client upon regaining
connectivity. Session reliability is most relevant for wireless devices.
Click OK to save the settings.
If the session reliability is enabled in an active session, and your network connection is not configured properly, a warning message is displayed with time elapsed after warning issuance.
