Configuring the Amazon WorkSpaces broker connection

Amazon WorkSpace (AWS) is a cloud-based virtual desktop that allows you to access remote applications with ease. Amazon WorkSpaces connection is applicable only for PCoIP clients.

1. From the desktop menu, click System Setup, and then click Remote Connections.
   The Remote Connections dialog box is displayed.
2. In the Broker Setup tab, from the Select Broker Type drop-down list, select Amazon WorkSpaces.
3. Based on your preferred connection mode, do the following:
   • If you want to connect to AWS using the registration code, select the Connect via registration code check box, and enter the WorkSpaces registration code in the Registration Code field. If you want to change the registration code from the Amazon Workspace login window, you must select the Enable Changing Registration Code from Login window option using either Admin policy tool or Wyse Management Suite.

   • If your server supports Multi-factor authentication (MFA), enable the MFA option using Wyse Management Suite or Admin Policy Tool.

     The MFA token field is enabled. Use the Google Authenticator on your mobile device and enter the code that is generated.

   • If you want to connect to AWS using the default PCoIP Gateway mode, enter the IP address/Hostname/FQDN of the broker server in the Broker Server field.
   • If you select the Enable customized login option in Admin Policy Tool or Wyse Management Suite, the Amazon Workspace customized login window is displayed.
4. In the Auto Connect List field, enter the name of the desktops that you want to launch automatically after logging in to the respective broker. More than one desktop can be listed. Each desktop name is separated by a semicolon, and is case-sensitive.
5. Click OK
