Discovery Process Overview

Discovery Process Overview

Before endpoints can be managed by the PCoIP Management Console, they must first be discovered. Once discovered, the PCoIP Management Console will label the device as either a local or remote endpoint.

Discovering Endpoints Manually from PCoIP Management Console

Discovering Endpoints Manually from PCoIP Management Console

The ENDPOINTS page contains an ENDPOINT DISCOVERY feature that lets you discover endpoints that are not pre-configured with PCoIP Management Console information. Endpoints must be configured for low security before they can be discovered using this method.

Deleting Endpoints

Deleting Endpoints

You can delete an endpoint when you no longer wish it to be managed by the PCoIP Management Console. This also removes it from its GROUPED or UNGROUPED endpoints table.

If auto-discovery is used (DHCP option-based or DNS SRV records) and the endpoint is still connected to the network, it will attempt to initiate a new connection to the PCoIP Management Console and re-register with it.

AWS Registration Codes

Entering AWS Registration Codes via Broker Address Cache List

If you have an allotment of AWS WorkSpaces that are available for a Zero Client user to use, you can add up to 50 of them to a Zero Client running firmware 21.10.0 or newer via a Management Console profile.

Accessing the Virtual Machine Console

Accessing the PCoIP Management Console Virtual Machine Console

In order to change the PCoIP Management Console's default settings and run various scripts, you must connect to the PCoIP Management Console’s virtual machine console and log in. The AMI release of PCoIP Management Console has SSH enabled by default to provide access to its virtual machine console.

Uploading the Certificate to an Endpoint

Uploading the PCoIP Management Console Certificate to an Endpoint

If your endpoints are configured with a discovery method and security level that require them to have a PCoIP Management Console certificate in their trusted certificate store before they can connect to the PCoIP Management Console, you can either upload the PCoIP Management Console certificate to a group of

Upgrading Endpoints to Firmware 5.0 or Later

Upgrading Endpoints to Firmware 5.0 or Later

PCoIP Management Console cannot upgrade endpoints running firmware versions prior to 5.0. Instead, you can perform this step remotely for a group of endpoints using PCoIP Management Console 1 or you can update the firmware for individual endpoints locally using each endpoint’s AWI.
