Browser Console

Use the BROWSER CONSOLE preference to specify the properties for the console types: Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP), Secure Shell (SSH) protocol, and TELNET.

  1. From MY PROFILE screen, click BROWSER CONSOLE tab.

    Browser Console screen

  2. Provide the following information:

    RDP: RDP allows you to connect to another computer over a network connection. Configure DPI settings, height, weight color depth, resize method to match your screen size.

    Field NameField TypeDescription
    Width (PX)Integer(optional) Width of the display to request, in pixels. If not specified, the default width is used.

    The browser console automatically chooses the appropriate display size for RDP connections based on the browser window size and the device DPI. You can force the display size by specifying explicit width or height values.
    Height (PX)Integer(optional) Height of the display to request, in pixels. If not specified, the default height is used.
    Resolution (DPI)Integer(optional) Effective resolution you want for the client display, in DPI. If not specified, the default resolution is used for the RDP session.
    Color DepthDropdown(optional) Color depth to request, in bits-per-pixel. If specified, this must be 8, 16, or 24. Regardless of the value you specify, if an update uses less than 256 colors, the browser console always sends the update as a 256-color PNG image.

    To reduce bandwidth usage, consider reducing color depth. The browser console automatically detects 256-color images, which can be guaranteed for all graphics sent over the connection by forcing the color depth to 8-bit. Otherwise, color depth is dictated by the RDP server.
    Resize MethodDropdown(optional) Method to use to update the RDP server when the width or height of the client display changes. If not specified, the default method is considered. Options:

    • display-update uses the RDP 8.1+ Display Update channel to signal the server when the client display size changes.
    • reconnect automatically disconnects the RDP session when the client display size changes and reconnects with the new size.
    Typically, the RDP session display size is constant and can only be changed on the initial connection. As of RDP 8.1, the Display Update channel can be used to request that the server change the display size. For older RDP servers, the only option is to disconnect and reconnect using the new size.

    SSH: SSH support provides a display, but not an RDP-like protocol. The display is a terminal emulator, and that has options for configuring text properties. The specified font must be installed on the server because the server, not the client, renders the characters to the display terminal.

    Field NameField TypeDescription
    Color SchemeDropdown(optional) The color scheme of the terminal emulator used for SSH connections. The color scheme is specified as semicolon-separated name-value pairs. Each name-value pair assigns a value to a color in the terminal emulator palette.

    Example of default blue text on a white background and the red color represented as a purple shade:

    foreground: rgb:00/00/ff; background: rgb:ff/ff/ff; color9: rgb:80/00/80

    This format is similar to the color configuration format used by Xterm. Xterm color configurations can be adapted to the browser console. If not specified, the browser console renders text as gray on a black background. Possible color names are:
    • foreground sets the default foreground color
    • background sets the default background color
    • color sets the color at index on the Xterm 256-color palette. For example, color9 refers to the red color. Possible color values are:
      • rgb:RR/GG/BB Use the specified color in RGB format, with each component in hexadecimal notation. For example, rgb:ff/00/00 specifies the color red. Each hexadecimal component can be one to four digits. The effective values are always zero-extended or truncated to two digits. For example, rgb:f/8/0, rgb:f0/80/00, and rgb:f0f/808/00f all refer to the same effective color.
      • color Use the color currently assigned to index on the Xterm 256-color palette. For example, color9 specifies the current red color. Note that the color value is used rather than the color reference. If color9 is changed in the color scheme configuration, the new color is not reflected in this assignment.
      For backward compatibility, the browser console accepts four special values as the color scheme parameter:
      • black-white Black text over a white background
      • gray-black Gray text over a black background, the default color scheme
      • green-black Green text over a black background
      • white-black White text over a black background
    Font NameString(optional) The font name. If not specified, the default font is monospace.
    Font Size (DPI)Dropdown(optional) The font size, in points. If not specified, the default font size is 12.
    Maximum Scroll Back Size (DPI)Combo box(optional) Maximum number of rows to permit within the terminal scrollback buffer. If not specified, the scrollback buffer is limited to a maximum of 1000 rows.

    TELNET: Telnet support provides a display, but not an RDP-like protocol. The display is a terminal emulator, and that has options for configuring text properties. The specified font must be installed on the server because the server, not the client, renders the characters to the display terminal.

    Field NameField TypeDescription
    Color SchemeDropdown(optional) The color scheme of the terminal emulator used for Telnet connections. The color scheme is specified as semicolon-separated name-value pairs. Each name-value pair assigns a value to a color in the terminal emulator palette.

    Example of default blue text on a white background and the red color represented as a purple shade:

    foreground: rgb:00/00/ff; background: rgb:ff/ff/ff; color9: rgb:80/00/80

    This format is similar to the color configuration format used by Xterm. Xterm color configurations can be adapted to the browser console. If not specified, the browser console renders text as gray on a black background. Possible color names are:

      • color Use the color currently assigned to index on the Xterm 256-color palette. For example, color9 specifies the current red color. Note that the color value is used rather than the color reference. If color9 is changed in the color scheme configuration, the new color is not reflected in this assignment.
