Dell Hybrid Client enables you to create and manage custom connections. You can use Wyse Management Suite to configure the
custom connection settings.
Prerequisites
● As an administrator, you must install the optional custom connection add-on to create custom connections. To install the
custom connection add-on on Dell Hybrid Client, do the following:
1. Go to www.dell.com/support.
2. In the Enter a Service Tag, Serial Number, Service Request, Model, or Keyword field, type the model number of
your device or type Dell Hybrid Client.
3. Click the product from search results to open the product support page.
4. On the product support page, click Drivers & downloads.
5. Depending on the version of Dell Hybrid Client that you have installed on your device, select the Ubuntu operating
system. For information about the version of the Ubuntu operating system that is supported in each Dell Hybrid Client
release, see Supported operating system.
6. From the list, locate the custom connection add-on entry and click the download icon.
7. After the add-on is downloaded successfully, use the standard application policy on Wyse Management Suite to deploy
the add-on to Dell Hybrid Client. Ensure that you upload the downloaded add-on to the local repository on Wyse
Management Suite. For more information about how to deploy a Standard App Policy, see the Dell Wyse Management
Suite Administrator's Guide at www.dell.com/support.
● In Dell Hybrid Client version 1.5, if a guest user wants to create a custom connection with Terminal, the security profile must
be set to Low. In this scenario, the custom connection is configured with /usr/bin/gnome-terminal from the Wyse
Management Suite server. For more information about how to configure security profiles, see Configure the security profile
settings.
