The Sentral client is provided as the default client on both the XPe- and NeoLinux- based

I/Ports. When using your XPe-based I/Port as a client managed by Sentral, do the following

from the Sentral Console to begin configuring your I/Port for Sentral:

1. From the Sentral console, run a discovery to discover all thin clients (as described in

Sentral Administrator’s Guide). From the Setup > Configuration screen, ensure that the

Discovery Update Config drop-down menu is set to True. This setting pushes out

credentials for the Primary and Secondary Sentral servers to the I/Port. If Discovery

Update Config is set to False, right-click the thin client (I/Port) in the Hierarchical view,

and select Configure to manually specify the Primary and Secondary servers.

2. Add the I/Port to a Thin Client Group.

3. Allocate the I/Port or Thin Client Group to a host, a host group, or a virtual machine

(VM).

To log in directly to a host from an XPe-based I/Port, double-click the

Thin Client Agent

Manager

icon on the thin client desktop and enter login credentials for the I/Port (thin client).

Then log into the host using RDP, specifying the domain and host name as follows:

domain.com\host_name

If you are using an XPe-based I/Port as an unmanaged thin client with Microsoft Remote

Desktop Protocol (RDP), double-click the

Remote Desktop Connection

icon on the desktop.

Optimizing RDP and the I/Port

Under most circumstances, the I/Port itself does not run any applications other than the XPe

core operating system, the Sentral client, and RDP. All applications run on the

host

When you use the Sentral client, the interface settings are managed by Sentral automatically.

However, if you use RDP as a standalone client, there are several settings that you can adjust
