Default
settings and IP
address
(continued)
By default, zero clients and host cards are configured to receive an IP
address from a DHCP server. If a DHCP server does not assign an
address within 120 seconds, the zero client uses a default, fallback IP
address. Fallback addresses enable devices to always have a known IP
address. See PCoIP System User’s Guide for more information.
NOTE:
If you use the fallback addresses and have DHCP enabled,
you must wait 120 seconds before you can connect to a
host. If you use the direct connect methodology in your
environment, ClearCube recommends disabling the
client's DHCP setting to eliminate the need to wait 120
seconds before connecting. See PCoIP System User’s
Guide for more information.
Setting up zero
clients
The steps below show how to connect peripherals, a network cable,
and a power supply to a zero client. These steps assume that the zero
client and host card are on the same network as a DHCP server.
Step
Action
1
Power on the remote PC blade containing the host card
to which you are going to connect.
2
Connect a monitor cable to each port on the zero client
and to your monitors. See “
for alternate video configurations.
3
Connect a network cable to the connector located on the
rear of the zero client, and then connect the other end of
the cable to the appropriate network infrastructure device
(such as a network switch, fiber transceiver, or router).
4
Connect a USB keyboard and a mouse to the USB ports
on the front or on the rear of the zero client.
5
Connect the power cable to the AC power adapter (both
are included with the zero client).
