Deployment Method #3:
Management Console
The PCoIP Management Console (PCoIPMC) is
a tool to help configure Host and Portal
endpoints for medium-size PCoIP Technology
deployments.
The PCoIPMC is a HTML-based virtual
appliance packaged with the minimum required
OS.
The PCoIPMC can also be used in conjunction
with a connection broker to manage the
configuration of PCoIP Endpoints.
The recommended environments for the
PCoIPMC are:
• Single subnet static IP addresses
• DHCP with DNS server deployments
• SLP for discovery (PCoIPMC discovers
endpoints)
• DNS-SRV for discovery (endpoints discover
PCoIPMC)
Note: The DNS-SRV Resource Record name for
the PCoIPMC is pcoip-tool.
The PCoIP Management Console capabilities
are summarized in the table below:
