You configure endpoint settings for Client Accelerator endpoints on the Endpoint Settings tab of the Manage > Services: Policies page. Endpoint settings include the Client Accelerator RiOS data store size, log size, adding additional Client Accelerators, Windows-only settings, and enabling visibility of the Client Accelerator in the system tray.

When you configure endpoint settings, you must remove the Client Accelerator labeled with the (localhost) suffix. This special Client Accelerator is the localhost, and when the policy is created, it is replaced by the Client Accelerator sending the policy, leading to an incorrect IP address. Instead of using the Client Accelerator labeled (localhost), use only the fully qualified domain name or the IP address for that Client Accelerator.

Add a New Controller displays the controls for adding a new Client Accelerator to the list.

connect according to the number you specify, starting with 1. If the system is unable to connect to 1 in the list, the system moves on to the next Client Accelerator in the list. For example, if the system is unable to connect to Client Accelerator 1, then Client Accelerator 2 is attempted. If Client Accelerator 2 is successful, no further Client Accelerators in the list are attempted.

Specify a fully qualified hostname or IP address and port for a Client Accelerator that the client connects to. You can specify more than one Client Accelerator. The default port value is 7870.

Select the check box to disregard the Client Accelerator priority list and randomly connect to Client Accelerators in the group. The default setting is disabled.

By default, a value for the local Client Accelerator is already in the list. In a clustered deployment, the entry should be removed and replaced with an explicit entry for the local Client Accelerator.

You can configure these desktop license settings.

Show Client in the System Tray—Select the check box to display the Client Accelerator in your client machine system tray. The default setting is enabled.

When you enable Show Client in the System Tray, the endpoint user can override policy settings made by the system administrator. Even if a new policy is sent to the client, the settings in the client remain in effect until the endpoint user clicks Reset under Settings > Reset to Administrator policy.

Allow User to Modify Optimization Settings—Select the check box to enable the Client Accelerator user to modify optimization settings. The default setting is enabled.

Data Store Size—Select one of these options from the drop-down list. The minimum value is 256 MB. The default value is 10 GB.

The amount of RAM used by the optimization service on the Client Accelerator is related to the Client Accelerator RiOS data store size that you select. If the Client Accelerator is visible on the client computer, the Data Store Size Auto setting for RiOS data store size means the client is using the size specified in the policy.

Carefully consider the RiOS data store size for your Client Accelerator endpoints. Changing the size later requires emptying the RiOS data store, which temporarily slows performance.

Maximum Log Size—Specify the maximum size for your log files to be stored on your client machine. The default value is 5000 KB.

Disable TCP/IP Checksum Offloading (Requires client reboot)—For Windows only. Select the check box to disable TCP/IP checksum offloading.
