Configuring user connections
The User Connections area displays all connections currently
assigned to the user selected from the drop-down list at the top of the
window. Select a user from the list and use the following features to
configure connections for the user:
■ Name: Displays the name of the connection. You cannot change
the connection name.
■ Type: Displays the type of connection (Web, RDP, XDM, ICA, or
other). You cannot change the connection type from this column.
■ Primary: Select to designate a connection as primary. The thin
client attempts secondary connections if the primary connection
fails. If more than one secondary connection is associated with a
primary connection, the thin client prioritizes the secondary
connections starting with the first connection in the group.
■ Auto: Select to designate whether a user is automatically logged
on when HP Connection Administrator starts up. To prevent a
user from being logged on that is set to auto logon, press the left
Shift key as soon as the log in screen displays.
■ Persistent: Select to designate whether the system will attempt to
reconnect when a connection fails. You can only make primary
connections persistent.
■ Prompt: Select to configure the system to determine whether a
user is still using the thin client after a group of connections fails.
Clear this check box to allow the system to continue to cycle
through the connections in the group.
✎
The user must quit the current session to disable automatic
connection.
