Third party virtualization software like VirtualBox – either uninstall VirtualBox or uncheck the VirtualBox item in Wi-Fi Properties and reboot.ĥ. You may be able to create a firewall rule for third party programs. Third party anti virus and/or firewalls - recommend completely uninstalling these, restarting, and then checking to see if you can add a wireless display. This thread on TechNet may help you resolve this issue:ģ. Some group policy settings or firewall settings if you are on a domain. You can then select one of the supported VPN solutions and complete the setup.Ģ. Next, select Manage virtual private networks (VPN).
If your VPN solution is not supported, you will probably need to completely uninstall it and reboot to use Miracast successfully.įirst, access Windows 8.1 native VPN connections: from the Start screen type You will need to uninstall third party VPN clients (and Currently supported are Checkpoint VPN, F5 VPN, Juniper Networks Junos Pulse, Microsoft, and SonicWALL Mobile Connect. Windows 8.1 has built in support for some third party VPN solutions, but not all.
Some third party VPN solutions identify WiFi Direct (the underlying technology for Miracast) as a "Split Tunnel" and deem it a risk to security so they disable the functionality. VPN software (note that Netgear Read圜loud software also adds a hidden VPN device and may be installed by the Genie installer). Software or Policies that may prevent Miracast from Working:ġ. (The original Surface RT is not Miracast capable)
If your devices are certified, but Charms, Devices, Project does not offer "add a wireless display", check for software that might disable Miracast functionality by hooking into the network stack.Īpplies To: Windows 8.1 Miracast enabled computers and tablets, including Surface 2, Surface Pro, Surface Pro2, Surface Pro 3. The first step in solving Miracast connectivity issues is verifying your devices are
and also download a spreadsheet with all Miracast certifications. Your final profile should look like this.In general to mirror your display using Miracast, both the source and the display receiver should be Miracast certified. In this case, you aren't load-balancing the xterm sessions anyway. xterm sessions create a TCP socket sourced from TCP/6000 to the client. As long as these connections are trusted, and inside your company, there is no problem turning loose initiation on.Įssentially, loose initiation makes the F5 behave more like a router than a load-balancer, which is what you need in this situation. loose initiation allows the F5 to create an entry in the TCP state table whenever it sees an unknown TCP packet. Use loose initiation enable in your TCP profile. Solving Session expiration inside the F5: However, all this does is keep the F5 from resetting the client connection, but the session will still be expired from the F5's state table the next time someone takes a break for a couple of hours, and then moves the mouse pointer again in the xterm. You can disable that behavior with reset on timeout disable inside your TCP profile. Those two issues seem related, but they have different solutions on the F5.į5 resets timed-out TCP sessions by default. The F5 removes the TCP session after it expires.The F5 sends a reset to the client when the TCP session expires from the state table.
There are two problems you need to solve. You already mentioned that keepalives were not used on your old Cisco load-balancer, so I will focus on what you can do with the F5. Is there another way to keep the sessions from resetting without changing the timeout?
