NOTE This figure shows direct connections for clients using either PCoIP or RDP. The default setting, however,

is to have direct connections for PCoIP and tunnel connections for RDP.

See Table 5-3 for the default ports that are used for each protocol.

Figure 5-6 illustrates the protocols that each component uses for communication when a security server is

configured. This configuration might be used in a typical WAN deployment.
