2.2.3 Network Configuration
Network attached device must contain a unique network identifier. If the network is using TCP/IP as a
communication protocol, t hese identifiers are calle d IP addresses. The followi ng series of screens will
allow you to choose from two different methods of assigning the IP addresses.
2.2.3.1 Use the IP information supplied by DHCP
If your network provides DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) service and you want it to provide
the terminals IP information, leave the first option selected.
The terminal can get its IP address through a DHCP service by default. The DHCP will automatically
assign an IP address that is drawn from a pool of available I P addresses, w hen a terminal un it is powered
on and a request is broadcast over the network.
Use the IP information supplied by DHCP. If you need to specify static IP address for the terminal, select
the second option. The option is select ed au toma tical ly if your netw ork does n ot pro vide a D HCP service,
or if the unit is not properly connected to the network. In these cases, leave the second option selected.

Compression of sound data provides greater bandwidth efficiency but reduces sound quality somewhat.
This value is recommended for most LAN-based connection s.
Low. This value offers the most efficient use of bandwidth but also decreases sound quality
severely. This value is recommended for low-bandwidt h connections, including most modem
connections.
e. Click OK to save your changes.
3.5.3.6 Configuring Firewall Settings

6.1.2.3.2 Improving Performance over a Low-Bandwidth Connection
If you are using ICA over a low-bandwidth connection, such as a modem or cellular telephone,
there are a number of changes that you can make to your client configuration and the way you
use the client to improve performance.
z Change your ICA Client configuration—Changing your client configuration, as
described below, can reduce the bandwi dth that ICA requires and improve performance
z Change the way you use the client—Changing the way you use the client can also
reduce the bandwidth required for a high-performance connection
z Use the latest MetaFrame server and ICA Clients—Citrix is continually enhancing and
improving ICA performance with each release, and many performance features require
the latest client and server software in order to function.
Changing your ICA Client Configuration
On devices with limited processing power, or where limited bandwidth is available, there is a
37
Page 41
trade-off between performance and functionality. The ICA Client provides both user and
administrator with the ability to choose an acceptable mixture of rich functionality and
interactive performance. Making one or more of these changes can reduce the bandwidth that
your connection requires and improve performance.
Enable the Bitmap Cache
Bitmap caching stores commonly used bitmaps (images) locally on your client so that they do
not have to be transferred over the ICA connection every time they are needed.
z To enable bitmap caching
1. From the ICA Client window, select the connection entry that you want to change.
2. From the Properties page, select Connection from the drop-down list to display the
Connection page.
3. Select Use Disk Cache for Bitmaps. Click OK.
Data Compression
Data compression reduces the amount of data transferred across the ICA session. This
requires additional processor resources to compress and decompress the data, but it can
increase performance over bandwidth-limited connections.
z To enable data compression
1. From the ICA Client window, select the connection entry that you want to change.
2. From the Properties page, select Connection from the drop-down list to display the
Connection page.
3. Select Use Data Compressi on to reduce the amount of data transferred ac ross the ICA
session.
SpeedScreen Latency Reduction
SpeedScreen Latency Reduction improves performance over high latency connections by
providing in stant feedb ack to the user in response to typed data or mouse clicks.
Note：SpeedScreen Latency Reduction will work only when it is available on the MetaFrame
server you a re connecting to and has been enabled. S ee your MetaFrame server
documentation for more details.
z To change SpeedScreen settings
2. From the ICA Client window, select the connection entry that you want to change.
3. From the Properties page, select Connection from the drop-down list to display the
Connection page.
4. In the SpeedSc reen section ther e ar e two list boxes, Local Text Echo and Mouse Click
Feedback. Local Text Echo accelerates display of the input text, effectively shielding you
from experiencing latency on the network. Mouse Click Feedback provides visual
feedback of a mouse click, in that the mouse pointer is immediately changed to an
hourglass indicator. Select a mode from the drop-down list:
a. For slower connections (for example if you are connecting over a WAN or a dial-in
connection), set mode to On to decrease the delay between user input and screen
display.
b. For faster connections (for example, if you are connecting over a LAN), set mode to
Off.
c. If you are not certain of the connection speed, set the mode to Auto to turn
SpeedScreen on or off depending on the latency of the connection. You can override
Auto mode using the Toggle SpeedScreen hotkey.
Note：Local text echo does not support input using IME.

Change the window size to the minimum you can comfortably use.
Reduce the Number of Colors
Reduce the number of colors to 256.
Reduce Sound Quality
If you are using sound, reduce the sound quality to the minimum setting or disable client audio
mapping.
Changing the Way You Use the Client
ICA technology is highly optimized and typically does not have high CPU and bandwidth
requirements. However, if you are using a very low-bandwidth connection, you should
consider the following to preserve performance：
1. Avoid accessing large files using client drive mapping. When you access alarge file
with client drive mapping, the file is transferred over the ICA connection. On slow
connections, this may take a long time.
2. Avoid printing large documents on local client printers. When you print a document
on a local client printer, the print file is transferred over the ICA connection. On slow
connections, this may take a long time.
3. Avoid playing multimedia content. Playing multimedia content uses a lot of bandwidth
and can cause reduced performance.
6.1.2.3.3 Specifying an Application to Run at Connection
Use the Application page in the Properties dialog box to specify an applic ation to run when

select Seamless. Seamless integrates local and remote windows on the desktop.
z Window Colors allows you to set the numbe r of wind ow colors to 16, 256, 32 Thousand ,
or 16Million. Your display must be capable of displaying the resolution and color depth
you select. You can only specify a color depth greater than 256 colors on Version 6.0 and
later clients.
z 256 Color Mapping allows you to set u p 256 color sess ions to use approximate or exac t
colors. Use Shared - Approxima te Colors to eliminate color flashing when switching
context. Note that if other applications have allocated all 256 colors, the client will use a
private col or map.
z In each case, se lect Use De fault to use the d efault w indow size or window colors setting.
