You use the Network tab to configure network connection and data compression settings.
Table 3.3, “Network Tab” shows the available settings for this tab.
Table 3.3. Network Tab
Setting | Description |
|---|---|
Bandwidth Limit | Maximum bandwidth for the connection, in megabits per second. The default setting is 75 megabits per second, which is the maximum value. Decrease this setting if you are using a low bandwidth connection, or if you want to restrict the amount of server bandwidth used by Oracle Virtual Desktop Client. |
Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU) | This is the maximum packet size for network connections, in bytes. The default setting is 1500 bytes, which is the maximum value. If you are experiencing problems when using a Virtual Private Network (VPN), you might want to decrease this value. See Section 6.1, “Adjusting the MTU Setting”. |
MTU Auto Detect | Oracle Virtual Desktop Client detects the optimum MTU setting for the connection automatically. The Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU) setting is not used when you enable this setting. |
Force Compression | Compresses all packets before transmission, regardless of the available bandwidth. |
Lossless Compression | Disables the use of lossy compression for image data. Choose this setting if you want a high-quality display. |
Network Protocol | The type of network addresses used by computers on the network. The default setting is Auto. This setting selects the network protocol automatically. |
