The Wyse terminal that I have supports 16 bit display and you can configure it and it has a test button and it works locally on the Wyse box. &nbsp;However when you RDP into a server it only shows 8 bit display. &nbsp;I have tried it on several servers and when using a PC it supports up to 24 bit and works fine. &nbsp;I can only get the Wyse to pickup 8 bits and I need to have it with 16 bits since some applications are not compatible with 8 bits.

The Internet Protocol (IP) is the principal communications protocol in the Internet protocol suite for relaying datagrams across network boundaries, organized in abstraction layers, traditionally called "Link," "Internet," "Transport" and "Application”. Its routing function enables internetworking, and essentially establishes the Internet. IP defines packet structures that encapsulate the data to be delivered. It also defines addressing methods that are used to label the datagram with source and destination information.
