PCoIP requires a certificate to establish a session. By default, Anyware agents generate a self-signed certificate that secures the PCoIP session. Each component in the PCoIP system can generate these self-signed certificates, which will automatically work together without requiring any configuration.
This section describes how to replace HP's default certificates with your own custom certificates.
Note: These procedures use OpenSSL
This guide is intended for administrators who are deploying the Graphics Agent for macOS as part of HP Anyware. It assumes thorough knowledge of macOS conventions and general networking concepts, including firewall configuration.
The Graphics Agent for macOS is part of HP Anyware. It enables users to deliver GPU-powered physical workstations to end users via remote clients.
During remote login to a macOS agent machine, setup dialogs are displayed with which you can interact. If a user is not already logged in, establishing a PCoIP connection automatically logs the user in.
