1.3.4 AutoConfig
Any PCoIP Zero Clients newly discovered by the MC may be automatically added to a
group and have that group’s profile applied without user interaction. One or more
AutoConfig rules can be created that allow one group to have one or more criteria
defined. The MC supports the following criteria to decide how Zero Clients are
automatically assigned to groups using AutoConfig:
• Each group can have an optional AutoConfig rule associated with it
• Rules are sets of optional password settings and optional IP address ranges as
described here:
o No Password: Add discovered Zero Clients to this group if they have no
password configured.
o Password: Add discovered Zero Clients to this group if they have the
identical password configured for the criteria.
o IP address range: Add discovered Zero Clients to this group if the IP
address falls within the range configured by this criteria. Not specifying
an IP address range will add all Zero Clients that match the password
criteria.
The order of events that occurs when a Zero Client has been discovered is:
1. Device is listed in the AutoConfig status table with a status of Not Started
2. Zero Client IP address and password are compared against all AutoConfig rules.
3. If a match is found then the Zero Client is added to that group
