Automatically Connecting to a Session

The Automatic Login feature enables you to bypass traditional login steps, and directly connect to your desktop without the need to provide your credentials. The ability to automatically login streamlines and simplifies the login experience.

You can connect to a session automatically, provided that Automatic Login has been enabled on the Trust Center.

Note: Support for Failover Gateways

The supports failover Security Gateways in a Connection Manager and Security Gateway deployment. If the primary gateway used to establish a PCoIP session fails unexpectedly, the session is automatically transferred to the next available gateway.

Session failover is only available if failover gateways are configured on the machines where the Connection Manager and/or Security Gateway are installed. No additional configuration is required on the HP Anyware Clients.

Instructions for configuring failover gateways is available in the topic "Configuring Failover Security Gateways" of the Connection Manager and Security Gateway Administrators' Guide.
