Table 17‑8. PCoIP General Policy Settings (Continued)
Setting Description
Configure frame rate vs image quality
preference
Configure the frame rate and image quality preference from 0 (highest
frame rate) to 100 (highest image quality). If this policy is disabled or not
configured, the default setting is 50.
Higher value (max: 100) means you prefer high image quality even if
frame rate is choppy. Lower value (min: 0) means you prefer a fluent
experience with aggressive image quality.
This setting could work with the Configure PCoIP image quality
levels GPO, which determines the max initial image quality level and
min image quality level. While the Frame rate and image quality
preference can adjust the image quality level for each frame, it cannot
exceed the max/min quality level threshold configured by Configure
PCoIP image quality levels GPO.
When this policy is changed during run time, it could take effect
immediately.
Configure PCoIP session encryption
algorithms
Controls the encryption algorithms advertised by the PCoIP endpoint
during session negotiation.
Checking one of the check boxes disables the associated encryption
algorithm. You must enable at least one algorithm.
This setting applies to both agent and client. The endpoints negotiate the
actual session encryption algorithm that is used. If FIPS140-2 approved
mode is enabled, the Disable AES-128-GCM encryption value is always
overridden so that AES-128-GCM encryption is enabled.
Supported encryption algorithms, in order of preference, are
SALSA20/12-256, AES-GCM-128, and AES-GCM-256. By default, all
supported encryption algorithms are available for negotiation by this
endpoint.
If both endpoints are configured to support all three algorithms and the
connection does not use a Security Gateway (SG), the SALSA20
algorithm will be negotiated and used. However, if the connection uses
an SG, SALSA20 is automatically disabled and AES128 will be
negotiated and used. If either endpoint or the SG disables SALSA20 and
either endpoint disables AES128, then AES256 will be negotiated and
used.
