Here, you can change advanced settings.

• Link speed
  Possible values:

  • Modem

  • ISDN

  • ADSL

  • WAN

  • LAN (Default)

• Disable ZLIB stream compression
  Possible values:
  ☑ The data traffic between the client and server will not be compressed.

  

  Switching off compression can be helpful if the data traffic is compressed on another level, e.g. by VPN software.

  ☐ The data traffic between the client and server will be compressed. (default)

• Enable SSL encryption on all traffic

  ☑ Connections with NX, SSH and UDP will be encrypted. (default)

  ☐ Connections with NX and SSH will be encrypted, connections with UDP will remain unencrypted.

• Connect through a HTTP proxy

  ☑ The connection between the client and server will be routed via an HTTP proxy.

  ☐ The connection between the client and server will be direct. (default)

• Host: Host name or IP address of the HTTP proxy

• Port: Port of the HTTP proxy (default: 8080)

• Username: User name when logging on to the HTTP proxy

  

  This setting is only relevant up to NoMachine NX Server Version 3.5.

• Password: Password when logging on to the HTTP proxy

  

  This setting is only relevant up to NoMachine NX Server Version 3.5.

• Remember my password

  

  This setting is only relevant up to NoMachine NX Server Version 3.5.

  ☑ The password will be saved.

  ☐ The password will not be saved and must therefore be entered again for each session. (default)

• Disable deferred screen updates: Delayed screen refreshing ("lazy encoding") compensates for bottlenecks in data transmission. If a bottleneck occurs, refresh procedures requiring large amounts of bandwidth are delayed in favor of interactivity. There are two levels of delayed screen refreshing. With Level 1, refresh actions which are not displayed directly ("offscreen") are dismissed. With Level 2, refresh actions which are displayed directly ("onscreen") are dismissed.

  

  This setting is only relevant up to NoMachine NX Server Version 3.5.

  
  

  ☑ Bottlenecks in data transmission are not compensated for through delayed screen refreshing.

  ☐ If the connection speed is set to "WAN”, Level 1 delayed screen refreshing will be used. If the connection speed is set to "MODEM, “ISDN” or “ADSL”, Level 2 delayed screen refreshing will be used. (default)

• Disk cache: Size of the persistent memory for caching images (default: 64 MB)

  

  This setting is only relevant up to NoMachine NX Server Version 3.5.

  
  

• Memory cache: Size of the volatile memory for caching images (default: 16 MB)

  

  This setting is only relevant up to NoMachine NX Server Version 3.5.
