z PCoIP Device Name
If the PCoIP Device Name allows the administrator to give the Host or Portal a logical name. The
default value is pcoip-host-MAC or pcoip-portal-MAC where MAC is the MAC address of the Host
or Portal.
z PCoIP Device Description
A description and additional information such as the location of the endpoint for the device. The
firmware does not use this field. It is provided for administrator use only.
z Generic Tag
Generic tag information about the device. The firmware does not use this field. It is provided for
administrator use only.
Discovery Tab
Use the settings on the Discovery Configuration page to erase the discovery of hosts and clients in
your PCoIP system and dramatically reduce the configuration and maintenance effort for complex
systems. This discovery mechanism is independent of DNS SRV discovery.
For SLP discovery to work, routers must be configured to forward multicast traffic between subnets.
DNS-SRV Discovery is the recommended discovery mechanism because most deployments do not
allow this.

z Enable Discovery
If the Enable Discovery option is enabled, the device will dynamically discover peer devices using
SLP Discovery without requiring prior information on their locations in the network. This can
dramatically reduce configuration and maintenance effort for complex systems.
