III. THIN CLIENT TECHNOLOGY ABOARD NPS

A. OVERVIEW

This chapter will discuss the technological features

and advantages of the thin client technology and supporting

hardware used aboard NPS. It will also introduce some of

the difficulties experienced during the testing and

implementation of thin client remote management software.

B. THIN CLIENT SERVER SPECIFICATIONS

There were two application servers used during the

testing and evaluation for this thesis; Terminal Server 1

and Terminal Server 2. Although the basic components were

made by Supermicro® Computers Incorporated, both of these

servers were assembled in-house and not purchased pre-built

by an outside manufacturer. In-house construction carries

with it many benefits including minimizing cost, ensuring

the server contains sufficient memory storage for classroom

and lab applications, and making certain the server contains

enough processing power to accommodate a class of 36

students. In December 2006, the first thin client classroom

was constructed in Ingersoll Hall, Room 271, aboard NPS.

There are a total of 36 workstations in this classroom, each

containing the WYSE S90 thin client computer, a 15-inch

flat-panel monitor, a mouse and a keyboard.

Terminal Server 1, nicknamed “TSVR01” is the server

used to provide the processing power and applications for

the thin clients in Ingersoll 271. Terminal Server 2,
