1. Flexible Access to Remote Desktop Server
HOBLink JWT
Flexible Access to Remote Desktop Server
HOB has experience in java programming since J-Term had been the 99th product that has been certified with 100% Java by SUN. HOB has development experience in the mainframe area for more than 20 years. This experiences is also transferrend to the development within the Windows Terminal Server area.

HOBLink JWT
What is it ?

3. HOBLink JWT Overview
Need for effective business processes and protection of company knowledge
Central storage of company data and applications is important (e.g., for cloud computing or mobile workplaces)
Secure and flexible access to these resources must be assured
Innovative RDP-Client for flexible access to Remote Desktop Server
Remote Desktop Server = formerly Windows Terminal Server

4. HOBLink JWT The Idea
Easy and fast access to centrally installed Windows applications from any client, independently of the operating system (Windows Anywhere)
Existing hardware can be used longer = investment protection
Simplification of user management via central administration
Support-friendly due to the central installation
Reduces TCO thanks to the Web-based architecture
The reason for developing JWT. Very generally spoken. How the idea has been realized is shown on the following slides.
TCO= Total Cost of Ownership

5. HOBLink JWT Areas of Application
Using HOBLink JWT is very individual and variable
Easy to integrate into existing infrastructure
Compatible to third party environments
Simple and fast adaption to changed needs in the future
Whenever you need remote access to Remote Desktop Server, VDI or desktop system via RDP

6. HOBLink JWT Further Aspects
Optionally, even Macs or Linux/Unix interfaces can be accessed
Simply use a java-capable platform
Works even if the target PC is turned off (Wake-on-LAN)
Save energy costs
Green IT

7. HOBLink JWT Connection Targets
Remote Desktop Server (Windows Terminal Server)
Windows XP/Vista/Win 7 (not Home Edition)
Virtual Desktops Win XP/Vista/Win 7
With HOB MacGate also Mac OS X
With HOB X11Gate also Unix/Linux

8. HOBLink JWT Installation & Administration
Central
One-time installation on the Web server
Access from the client just with a browser
Applet download (under 1.5 MB)
Supports Java Web Start
The application has high stability
Local on each client
Installation on webserver, only:
time/effort savings for the admin
Applet size with pack 200 is about 477kb (but webserver needs to support pack 200, evtl. only with additional software)
Java webstart:
Applet is saved to the client and need not to be reloaded with every new start
Browser can be closed
Time/effort saving for the administrator:
Clients need not be maintained/administered
Simple roll-out
Fast and easy updates

9. HOBLink JWT User Access
Left side:User view: selection of servers the user can chose to connect to; if the user is allowed, he can also configure the connections from here.
Right side: Access via Browser
User: Select pre-configured servers to connect to (local installation)
User: Access via Browser (central installation)

Features & Functions

12. HOBLink JWT Load Balancing
Server farm management and an even load distribution
When establishing a connection the client sends a UDP packet to the Terminal Server and receives the current server load
No Single-Point-of-Failure
Reconnection to a disconnected session
Perfect server load
Prevents overload of single servers
Performance enhancement due to evenly distribution of load
Increased comfort for the user
The HOB Load Balancing Module measures the processor load:
Installation as a service on the terminal servers
Administration within the Microsoft management console
Load factor is an average value of already sent request, not a snapshot
Standard load balancing is included in the product, enhanced load balancing can be purchased as an optional feature

13. HOBLink JWT Load Balancing
Broadcast: Client sends a request to all Remote Desktop Servers in the network
Enhanced Load Balancing only available with HOB RD ES as an optional component
Server List: Configuration of specified Remote Desktop Server

14. HOBLink JWT Disconnect & Reconnect to a Session
Disconnected Session: The disconnected session is shown in the server list. The user can reconnect to this session. Data that have not been saved are kept.
If the session is disconnected (not logged off), the session can be re-connected from any client. Data that have not been saved are kept.
One can see a screenshot of a disconnected session if load balancing is used. The user may have several disconnected sessions, too.

15. HOBLink JWT Application Serving
Automatic execution of an application as soon as user has logged on
Not the whole Windows desktop available
No irritations on user side!

16. HOBLink JWT Application Serving
“Application Serving,” i.e., during log on a specific application is started for the corresponding client
Configuration at the client
Alternative: Start the client session with the desktop

17. HOBLink JWT Flexible Printing Options
Various printing options
Universal printer support
Options available:
Local print (printing on a local or network printer via a driver at the remote desktop session host)

LPR/LPD print
IP Print (print to an IP-Port of the network printer)
With Windows, even an automatic printer mapping is possible
Printing on a local or network printer
No double installation of drivers on client side
and server

18. HOBLink JWT Printer Support
Automatic Printer Configuration: In addition to manually setting up printers, locally installed printers on Windows platforms can be detected and automatically created
Manual Printer Configuration: Further option to configure printers

19. HOBLink JWT EasyPrint Less administration effort High stability
Less administration effort
High stability
Up to 600 dpi
Remote Desktop Server
printer drivers
HP Deskjet 1100 C on RDS
allows for printing on a locally connected printer without installing the respective driver on the remote desktop servers
pre-installed HP driver when installing Windows at the RDS
no compatibility problems with printer drivers, drivers must have the same name at the client and the server
higher stability of remote desktop services since fewer drivers needs to be installed
print quality up to 600 dpi
PCL printing
Mit ETS 2.2:
Universal Druckertreiber von HOB besonders an EasyPrint angepasst
Installed printer driver on the client is used
