When should I use ICA® and when should I use RDP®?

The question is relevant only if you purchase Jetro CockpIT™ and Jetro BoostIT™ together. Consider the following when deciding which product is right for you:

  • How many ICA® licenses do you own? Keep in mind that the ICA® licensing scheme is based on concurrent users.
  • How many RDP® licenses do you own? Note that RDP® is licensed by device, not by concurrent user.
  • Do you have applications that operate better on one of the protocols than on the other?
  • Do you have users that use one protocol more than the other?
  • Keep in mind that the same application can be delivered using each or both protocols. Keep in mind that a user can have some applications delivered in one protocol and some in the other protocol.

Do I have to use an Internet browser to launch an application?

No. Jetro's DirectLINK ™ technology enables you to create shortcuts to remote applications on the user desktop or in the local Windows Start menu.

What do I have to install on the client workstation? How do I distribute applications to all of the users?

Each workstation must have Microsoft® Internet Explorer 5 or above installed. Jetro CockpIT™/BoostIT™ client software downloads automatically when the user attempts to launch an application for the first time. There is no need to go to each station physically. Client software upgrades are downloaded automatically to the user's computer when they become available.

We use NAT - some users see the server in one IP while others see a different one. Does Jetro CockpIT™ support both networks at the same time?

The Jetro CockpIT™ system fully supports different IP addresses or server names. Using a NAT does not reduce the system's capability nor does it lower system performance.

Does Jetro Platforms support remote access to a server-based network?

YES! Jetro CockpIT supports any kind of Virtual Private Network (VPN) solution including Citrix Secured Gateways (only available with Jetro BoostIT), Checkpoint VPN, and Netilla along with many others.

Terminal servers can be configured to communicate with remote users using NAT IP addresses or local/internal addresses for LAN users. User Profiles, a new feature in Jetro CockpIT Version 3.0, allows users to choose whether to communicate using NAT IP addresses or local/internal addresses.
* Requires Microsoft CA service, a part of the Windows 2000 Server package
