Method for client configuration management in remote computing
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A computer-implemented method for endpoint configuration management comprising:
- identifying, by an endpoint configuration manager, a new role associated with a presented client, the presented client seeking to establish a remote computing session with a host, wherein the new role is based on topology attributes of the presented client;
deriving, from a set of stored endpoint configurations located in a configuration store, a new endpoint configuration supporting the new role, wherein the new endpoint configuration comprises topology preferences matching stored endpoint configurations used for a previous role, wherein matching is partly determined from a matched time of day;
presenting to the presented client, the new endpoint configuration for selection; and
establishing a first remote session utilizing the topology preferences defined by the new endpoint configuration.

Abstract
A method and apparatus for endpoint configuration management comprising receiving an endpoint topology and storing the endpoint topology in a configuration store, modifying a configuration for a remote session to conform to the endpoint topology and corresponding the configuration to the endpoint topology in the data structure and presenting to the endpoint the modified configuration of the remote session.

17. An apparatus for endpoint configuration management comprising:
-
a configuration manager that receives topology attributes from a first client and identifies a new role associated with the first client, deriving, from a set of stored endpoint configurations located in a configuration store, a new endpoint configuration supporting the new role, wherein the new endpoint configuration comprises topology preferences matching stored endpoint configurations used for a previous role, wherein matching is partly determined from a matched time of day, and presenting, to a second client, the new endpoint configuration for selection; and a connection manager for establishing a remote session between the second client and a host, utilizing the topology preferences defined by the new endpoint configuration. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20)
