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.
