Configuring Devices,
Setting Peers, and
Connecting
You must configure zero clients and host cards when deploying them. To provision a zero client:
1. Determine the IP address structure for your environment and determine the IP addresses of
the blade, the host card, and the zero client as described below.
2. Configure the PCoIP processors on the zero client and on the host card (for example,
enabling 64-bit audio, specifying a static IP, and so on). To configure PCoIP processors, use
the device’s Web interface as described below.
3. Establish a network connection between the zero client and the host card using the connection
method appropriate for your environment. Remember that you must consider the following
configuration aspects (described previously and later in this chapter):

Device management and peer assignment—managed using ClearCube Sentral (or
another connection broker) or deploy in an unmanaged environment.

Network topology—using direct cable connections or connections through a local
Ethernet switch.

IP address assignment—using DHCP, reserved DHCP, or static IP addresses. By
default, devices are configured for DHCP assignment.
The following sections describe how to find device IP addresses (necessary for configuration
and connection), how to configure devices, and how to connect devices using the methods
described here.
