PCoIP System User’s Guide

Figure 8. The Enable DHCP Option on the Web interface's network page

When a user powers on a zero client or host, the PCoIP device obtains an IP address from the
network’s DHCP server. If the DHCP server is unavailable at any time while the zero client or
host is already powered on, the zero client keeps its current IP address. The zero client keeps
this IP address until a user powers off the device. If the zero client is powered on when the
DHCP server is unavailable, the zero client uses one of the default, static IP addresses shown in

2.3.3 below

.

2.3.2 Reserved IP Addresses Using DHCP

This IP address assignment technique is similar to static IP assignment, where a DHCP server
issues a reserved IP address for a specified MAC address. Using this technique, you can deploy
PCoIP devices in a DHCP environment and use static sessions. In this deployment, a device
obtains an IP address and behaves as described above; this model is configured completely within
the DHCP server.
