Assigning Friendly Names to Connection Broker Caches

Friendly names are now supported for Connection Broker Caches. Friendly names allow the Connect screen to display easy-to-read names in the connections dropdown, instead of just a URL.

You can add friendly names for the Connection Broker Caches in one of the following ways:

  • Through the Management Console Profile: Configure a profile to push friendly names to zero clients. The dropdown on the Connect screen will display a "Friendly Name" instead of the actual URL.

  • Via the Zero Client's Administrative Web Interface (AWI): You can directly add a friendly name for each connection within the Zero Client's web interface.

Info

A maximum of 25 friendly names are supported at any given time. This applies to friendly names created through both the Management Console profile and the Administrative Web Interface (AWI).

To add a friendly name via the AWI

  1. From the AWI, select Configuration > Friendly Names.

  2. Set a friendly name for the connection type of your interest. The following connection types are supported:

    • Auto Detect
    • PCoIP Connection Manager
