● Domain join allowed ● Operating system maximum number of users: 20 (see Performance Considerations on page 8) Description of Modes Microsoft Windows MultiPoint Server 2011 can operate in two different modes described below: ● Maintenance, see Maintenance on page 2 ● Normal, see Normal on page 2 Maintenance Maintenance mode is the state of the MultiPoint Server 2011 system in which the administrative user performs maintenance tasks. No stations switch to this mode-this mode ends all user sessions. All software and driver installations are performed in Maintenance mode, including updating system settings. Maintenance Mode can be accessed by choosing "Switch to Maintenance Mode" from within the MultiPoint Manager. Normal Normal mode is the default mode. Users normally log in and perform individual task on each station in Normal mode. Each session runs a separate RDP session. Software updates and driver installations should not be performed in Normal mode. Remapping Stations MultiSeat uses an auto-mapping function to associate each attached zero client. If the auto-mapping function fails to work, then the user can manually associate their workstation with this function. Automapping does not apply to the host PC station. The remap function could be used to reconfigure the host PC station's association if the configuration has changed. To perform this action, choose "Remap all stations" from the MultiPoint Manager. Topology ● Windows MultiPoint Server 2011 ◦ Windows MultiPoint Server 2011 supports PS/2 keyboard/mouse on the host system. ◦ Windows MultiPoint Server 2011 supports audio and microphone on the host PC station. NOTE: For this to function, the host stations must be configured using PS/2 keyboard and mouse. It will not function with USB keyboard or mouse. ◦ Windows MultiPoint Server 2011 supports daisy-chaining of client devices connected by USB cable. Daisy-chaining can simplify cabling and extend the distance between the host and a station without additional USB hubs. 2 Chapter 1 Fundamentals
