You also need to configure a Direct from Client session connection type on the host. You
have the option of allowing the host to accept a connection request from any client or from a
specific one only. If the latter, you need to provide the client's MAC address.
For details on how to configure this option, see the following topics in the GUI Reference:

4.3.4 Connecting Hosts and Clients Using a 3rd Party Connection
Broker
A 3rd party connection broker is a resource manager that dynamically assigns host PCs to
zero clients based on the identity of the user establishing a connection from the zero client.
Connection brokers are also used to allocate a pool of hosts to a group of zero clients. They
are typically used in large PCoIP deployments, or when hosts and clients do not reside on
the same subnet.
Use the Connection Management Interface session connection type on both the host and
client for this option. You need to provide the IP address (or DNS name) for the 3rd party
connection broker.
Note: For information about 3rd party connection brokers, see Knowledge Base support
topic 15134-24 on the Teradici support site.
