NOTE:
• HDX RealTime Multimedia Engine is the package installed on ThinOS Lite ; it is HDX RealTime Connector for Lync that
needs to be installed or upgraded on the remote server and VDA.
• The upgrade option from 1.7 to 1.8 is discussed at docs.citrix.com/en-us/hdx-optimization/1-8/upgrade-1-7-to-1-8.html.
• The Firewall conguration is required on remote server and VDA. For more information, refer to docs.citrix.com/en-us/
hdx-optimization/1-8/hdx-realtime-optimization-pack-congure-rewall.html.
• To know about the technical overview of RTME 2.2, go to docs.citrix.com/en-us/hdx-optimization/2-2/hdx-realtime-
optimization-pack-about.html.
IMPORTANT: The RTME 1.8 feature on ThinOS Lite supports only HDX RealTime Connector 1.8 due to Citrix limitation.
2 Update the ThinOS Lite rmware to 2.4, and install the RTME.i386.pkg on the ThinOS Lite client. For information about installing the
RTME package, see
Installing the RTME Package on ThinOS Lite.
IMPORTANT: Since ThinOS Lite 2.3 RTME, 1.8 and 2.0 co-exist in the release package, supporting both versions of
RTME connectors. In every ThinOS Lite release, RTME version may be updated to newer version and the latest RTME
version co-exists with RTME 1.8 version in the corresponding release packages.
3 (This step is for RTME 1.8 only) Congure the Domain Name Server (DNS) settings on ThinOS Lite for Lync Server.
NOTE: You must ensure that the thin client does not have USB redirection for video/audio devices in order to have
RTME working correctly.
