How to set up connection address for Secure XDMCP

INTRODUCTION


Connection address is used by the remote host to make a connection back to the remote X server (i.e. Xmanager). If the PC is located behind the firewall, connection address can be used to route the XDMCP traffic to a router/gateway. Then, reroute the traffic to a desired PC by using firewall rules.

Also, depending on the type of the remote host, you may have to assign a connection address.
