Security level implications
The security level setting has major implications for device discovery and connectivity with endpoint managers like the PCoIP Managment Console. For detailed information, see About Tera2 PCoIP Zero Client Security Levels.
Configuring Discovery
For detailed information about how to connect to an endpoint manager, including information about security levels and endpoint manager discovery methods, see Connecting to an Endpoint Manager.
Viewing the Security Level¶
From the OSD Management page (shown next), you can view the Tera2 PCoIP Zero Client's security level.
OSD Management page
To view the security level using the OSD:
- From the OSD, select Configuration > Management.
- From the OSD Management page, view the Security Level setting. The setting will be either:
- Low: Discoverable by endpoint managers. This is the only security mode where certificates are optional.
- Medium: Not discoverable by endpoint manager, and the installed certificate must trust the endpoint bootstrap manager.
- High: Not discoverable by endpoint managers, and the bootstrap phase is disabled. All endpoint manager connection configuration is manual. The installed certificate must trust the endpoint manager.
- Click Ok.
Configuring the Security Level¶
From the AWI Management page, you can configure the Tera2 PCoIP Zero Client's security level.
The information that displays on the AWI Management page (shown next) depends on whether the client uses automatic or manual discovery.
AWI Management page – automatic discovery mode
AWI Management page – manual discovery mode
To configure the security level:
