Default Parameters for RdpClientTest

The RdpClientTest reports on latencies seen by the users connecting to a Microsoft RDS/VMware Horizon View RDS server.

This page depicts the default parameters that need to be configured for the RdpClientTest.

• The TEST PERIOD list box helps the user to decide how often this test needs to be executed.

• By default, the DISPLAYDOMAIN flag is set to False, indicating that only the names of the discovered users will be displayed in the eG monitor interface. If you want the user names to be pre-fixed by domain names in the format DOMAIN\USERNAME, then set the DISPLAYDOMAIN flag to True.

• The size of packets used for the test has to be specified in the PACKETSIZE text box.

• Number of packets exchanged between the Microsoft RDS server and the user terminal during the test has to be given in the PACKETCOUNT text box.

• The TIMEOUT text box defines the maximum time (in seconds) that the test waits for the response to a transmitted packet. A response received after the TIMEOUT period is ignored by the test.

• The PACKETINTERVAL text box represents the interval (in milliseconds) between successive packet transmissions during the execution of this test.

• Once the aforesaid values are provided, click on the UPDATE button to register the changes made.

When changing default configurations of tests, the values with “$” indicate variables that will be replaced by the eG system according to the specific server being managed - for instance, $hostName is the host/nickname of the target host, $port is the port number of the server being monitored. E.g., for a server xyz:80, $hostName will be changed automatically by the eG manager to “xyz” and $port will be changed to “80” when configuring a test.
