HP Velocity functional overview

Operational modes

HP Velocity protects and optimizes data flows between HP thin clients and HP Velocity­enabled virtual desktops or terminal services servers. It provides three operational modes: Protect, Monitor, and Off.
Protect mode
Protect mode is the default and recommended operational mode. In this mode, HP Velocity provides session establishment, HP Velocity-protected flow statistics, packet loss protection, WiFi optimization, and latency mitigation.
Monitor mode
In Monitor mode, HP Velocity monitors for packet loss and continuously profiles the end-to­end network conditions over established flows. This mode disables all HP Velocity network optimizers and is useful for acquiring baseline network characteristics.
Off mode
In Off mode, HP Velocity passes all network flows transparently and does not perform any monitoring or optimization.
HP Velocity Server Side Deployment Guide 8
HP Velocity functional overview Establishing a connection

Establishing a connection

An HP Velocity-protected connection is established over four steps (Figure 1):
Initialization
Beaconing
Handshaking
Protected state
Figure 1. Establishing a connection
Initialization
During initialization, HP Velocity-enabled endpoints start streaming data transparently. No optimizations are performed.
HP Velocity Server Side Deployment Guide 9
HP Velocity functional overview Establishing a connection
Beaconing
Once an HP Velocity-enabled endpoint detects that a bidirectional network path is available, it periodically modifies packet headers (both IP and TCP) in a seamless way to advertise itself to other HP Velocity-enabled endpoints (Figure 2).
IP headers can contain both IP ID-based beacons (using an option value of 0x420B) and IP Option-based beacons (using an option value of 0x880477FB). TCP flows can use TCP Option-based beacons (using an option value of 0x01 No-Operation and seven sets of End of Option Lists 00000000000000).
Once an HP Velocity-enabled endpoint processes enough beacons on a network flow to discover that another HP Velocity-enabled endpoint is at the other end, handshaking occurs.
NOTE: The use of TCP Option-based beacons for TCP flows and IP Option-based beacons for UDP flows can be controlled through the HP Velocity Policy Engine.
Figure 2. IPQ beaconing
Handshaking
An HP Velocity-enabled endpoint will initiate a three-way handshaking procedure with an HP Velocity-enabled endpoint discovered during beaconing. Once the handshake is completed, both HP Velocity-enabled endpoints enter the protected state.
Protected state
In the protected state, HP Velocity-enabled endpoints exchange information about current and trending network conditions. This information is then used to intelligently activate and adjust various optimizers.

Deployment configurations

HP Velocity server-side deployments vary based on the virtualization architecture in use.
This chapter covers the following information:
Deployments
Deployment considerations

Deployments

HP Velocity is preinstalled on HP thin clients. Use the following table to determine where to install HP Velocity on the server side.
Virtualization architecture
HP thin clients are directly connected to virtual desktops or applications.
HP thin clients use a connection broker as a proxy to access virtual desktops or applications.
The virtualization environment supports both direct and proxied connections to virtual desktops and applications.
HP thin clients connect to a terminal services server.

Virtualization architectures that allow an HP thin client to connect directly to a virtual desktop must have the HP Velocity server installed on the virtual desktop. In this deployment, a connection broker does not act as a proxy.
In Figure 3, thin clients A and B are directly connected to their respective virtual desktops A and B, as indicated by the color of the dotted lines.

Proxied

Virtualization architectures that require an HP thin client to access their virtual desktop via a proxy service provided by a connection broker (such as VMware View Manager) must have an HP Velocity server installed on the connection broker.
In Figure 4, thin clients A and B are connected to their virtual desktops via the connection broker. An HP Velocity server is installed on the connection broker. This results in flows that are protected by HP Velocity between the thin clients and the connection broker.

Direct and proxied

Some virtualization architectures allow both direct and proxied access to virtual desktops. In this deployment, the HP Velocity server must be installed on:
Virtual desktops that are accessed directly
Connection brokers that provide a proxy service to access the virtual desktop
In Figure 5, thin client A connects to virtual desktop A through the connection broker, and thin client B connects to virtual desktop B directly.

Terminal services

In a terminal services deployment, multiple HP thin clients are connected to a terminal services server such as a Windows Server.
In this deployment, the HP Velocity server must be installed on the terminal services server (Figure 6).

Deployment considerations

Maximum number of protected flows

HP Velocity supports a range of 16 to 1024 simultaneously protected flows.
The minimum supported protected flows are:
16 for HP thin clients
16 for virtual desktops
256 terminal services servers
HP Velocity defaults to the minimum supported simultaneous flows. If the default setting is changed, the system must be rebooted for the change to take effect.
NOTE: HP Velocity server-to-server flows are only monitored, not protected. Only flows between a server enabled with HP Velocity and an HP thin client are protected.
NOTE: LiveTCP will provide latency mitigation for up to 32 simultaneous protected flows.

About HP Velocity beacons

HP Velocity advertises its presence in a non-intrusive way by modifying IP and TCP headers in compliance with International Engineering Task Force (IETF) standards.
If either IP or TCP Option beacons are enabled, HP Velocity will add up to 4 bytes of data to the IP or TCP headers. This is in compliance with RFC 791 and RFC 793. Some applications might not be compliant with RFC 791 or RFC 793, and as a result might not be able to process IP or TCP Option beacons. If this occurs, disabling IP and/or TCP Option beacons should resolve the issue.
For more information on configuring beacons, see the HP Velocity User Guide.
NOTE: HP Velocity beacons are:
IP Option - 0x880477FB (UDP Flows)
TCP Option - 0x010000000000000000 (TCP Flows)

Installing HP Velocity on Microsoft Hyper-V

Installing HP Velocity on Microsoft Hyper-V might require the following additional steps.
If HP Velocity is installed directly on Microsoft Hyper-V and there is a “Local Area Connection ­Virtual Network” entry (Figure 7), ensure that the LiveQoS NDIS 6 Filter Driver is disabled for the physical network adapter (Figure 8).

Installing HP Velocity on servers with Broadcom teaming interfaces

Installing HP Velocity on Windows Servers using the Broadcom Advanced Control Suite NIC Teaming feature might require the following additional steps.
If HP Velocity is installed on Windows Servers, ensure that the LiveQoS NDIS 6 Filter Driver is disabled in the adapter settings (Figure 10).
To disable the LiveQoS NDIS 6 Filter Driver:
1. Install the HP Velocity server-side component as described in “Server-side installation” on
page 18.
2. Once the installation is complete, a prompt asking to reboot the system will appear. Click NO.
3. Open the Network and Sharing Center from the Control Panel.

Setting the HP Velocity operational mode

HP Velocity Management Application modes

HP Velocity supports two Management Application display modes on Windows: Basic and Advanced.
Basic mode is launched by clicking the HP Velocity Management Application icon in the
taskbar. By default, the Basic mode is enabled for HP thin clients.
Advanced mode provides a toolset for monitoring and troubleshooting HP Velocity-
protected flows and is launched by right-clicking the HP Velocity Management Application icon in the taskbar (Figure 11) and selecting Management. By default, the Advanced mode is enabled for server-side installations. For information, see “Using the Management
Application” on page 45.
