8.5.3 - Closing a Windows Session

When a session is closed, the AX3000 either reconnects to the same session,
displays the 'idle screen', or reverts to the first active session.

Three cases of disconnection can be distinguished.

a) Log Off from the Desktop

From the 'Start' menu, select 'Shut Down'. Within the list, select 'Log off xxx'.
Windows ends active applications, closes the desktop and disconnects the
session (at the TCP/IP level).

b) Disconnect from the Desktop

From the 'Start' menu, select 'Shut Down'. Within the list, select 'Disconnect'.
The Windows Operating System disconnects this session (at the TCP/IP level).

But in this case, the current environment (desktop and applications) is
maintained. The user will be able to retrieve this environment the next time the
connection is opened.

c) Disconnect by the AX3000

The <Ctrl><Alt><Shift><D> keystroke (locally processed by the AX3000)
allows the current session to be disconnected and works regardless the
protocol or emulation.

As above, the session is disconnected (at the TCP/IP level) but the current
environment (desktop and running applications) is not closed. The user will be
able to retrieve this environment the next time the connection is opened.

8.5.4 -Turning-Off the AX3000

If the AX3000 is powered off without logging out problems may be encountered.

The Windows Operating System cannot detect a TCP/IP device being turned-
off, so the current RDP or ICA connections remain active at the operating
system level.
