Do you have WYSE management software? Can you add an IP address or =
Server
name for polling the farm (i.e. in ICA syntax TCPBrowser=3DZDC)? I think =
this
will work without needing UDP available since it won't try to broadcast,
rather, it will ask the ZDC directly for it's list of published apps....

Subject: [THIN] Ramifications of UDP in MFXP farm
I am upgrading a 27-server NT 4.0-TSE/MF 1.8 farm to W2K3/MFXPe and I =
have
been testing the migration in the lab. It appears that I will still =
require
the ZDCs (farm will have 2 zones) to maintain UDP (Server-->MF XP =
Settings
-->ICA Browser - Create browser listener on UDP network). In testing,=20
-->when
in "native" mode (interoperability off), if this setting is unchecked, =
my
terminals doing directed TCP access for published applications fail to =
find
the master browser (ZDC). As long as the box is checked on the ZDCs, the
terminals can not only get the list of pub apps, but they can also be
routed to MF servers that are not configured as UDP browser listeners.
As I do not want to change the configuration on 4000 Wyse terminals to
update the Server Location and Protocol from TCP to TCP+HTTP, =
particularly
since it would require firmware upgrades to half of them, what are the
ramifications to running my farm with the UDP browser listeners =
configured
on the ZDCs? How will this affect performance and session initiation
response time? I do not know how many users are connecting/disconnecting =
at
any given moment, but I know a typical user load ranges anywhere from =
2100
to 2800 users, though the potential user base is closer to 4000.
Any thoughts or suggestions for ensuring optimal performance in my
environment would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Rob
