4-2 Chapter 4: Client-server setup
4.1 Managing your client-server setup
Today’s computers are becoming more powerful that they deliver high quality
graphic and video performance, yet still have excess power to share. Windows
MultiPoint Server 2011 strengthens the computer’s extra power and turns it
into a server capable of powering multiple sessions. Because of technology
advancements, the so-called “shared computing” or “virtual desktops” is now a
possibility.
Your MultiPoint Server system must have a serve and one or more Z5 client
stations. The server displays the startup process when the computer is turned on
and is used for administration.
The monitor of the server must be connected directly to a video port of the
computer that is running the MultiPoint Server. The standard stations’ monitors are
connected directly to the video ports of the Z5 Zero Client devices. The Z5 Zero
Client device replaces all standard PC stations.
4.1.1 Installing the Windows
®
Multipoint server
If the Windows
®
Multipoint server is not installed in your computer, install it first
before deploying the client-server service.
