3 Configuring Basic Thin Client

Settings

This chapter contains information on setting up the basic functions for thin client use. It

includes instructions for setting up a new thin client and resetting a thin client to factory

defaults.

Note

The password for the BIOS is Fireport.

Setting Up the Thin Client for the First Time

The first time a new thin client (or a thin client reset to factory-defaults) starts, the thin

client will log on automatically as an administrator (with no password required). You can

use the Setup Wizard to configure the settings necessary for basic operation and access

to the network resources needed for remote administration. For information on the Setup

Wizard, refer to "Using the Setup Wizard."

Note

You must enable security for login requirements to be active, otherwise, the

thin client automatically logs on as an administrator with no password

required. For more information on enabling security, refer to "Configuring

Security and Managing User Accounts."

After basic configurations, you can continue thin client configurations either locally or

remotely:

• Local Setup - Manually (by you as an administrator) on each thin client. Depending on

the number of thin clients, this method can be time consuming as there are many

configurations available for each individual thin client on the network. For more

information on local configurations, refer to "Using the Desktop and Connection

Manager to Manage Connections" and "Using the Control Panel."

• Remote Setup - By using Wyse Device Manager software (formally Rapport Remote

Administration Software) or SNMP tools you can configure and manage thin clients

remotely. Typically, a single thin client would be configured locally, and then the remote

software tools would be used to extract the settings into a database for broadcast as

an upgrade to other thin clients on the network. For information on remote

administration and software upgrades, refer to "System Administration." For

information on SNMP, refer to "Managing Networks Using SNMP."
