The Standard Agent for Linux supports audio input and output between the host and the client. Audio can be enabled or disabled and audio bandwidth can be throttled by configuring the agent.
You can configure the Anyware agent, and optimize PCoIP protocol behavior for local network conditions, by adjusting configuration directives found in /etc/pcoip-agent/pcoip-agent.conf.
We may request a support file from your system in order to troubleshoot and diagnose issues. The support file is an archive containing Anyware Standard Agent for Linux logs and other diagnostic data that can help support diagnose your problem.
To create a support file, type the following command as a super user:
To find the agent's version number in Ubuntu:
dpkg -l "pcoip*"
To find the agent's version number in RHEL or Rocky Linux:
rpm -qai "pcoip*"
The console will display a table of all registered components and their version number, if they have one.
