Users Guide
• Wait DHCP — Selecting this option enables your thin client to wait for IPV6 DHCP before the sign-in, if not selected the
system will only wait for IPV4 DHCP if enabled.
• Dynamically allocated over DHCP/BOOTP — Selecting this option enables your thin client to automatically receive
information from the DHCP server. The network administrator must configure the DHCP server (using DHCP options) to
provide information. Any value provided by the DHCP server replaces any value entered locally on the Optionstab, however,
locally entered values are used if the DHCP server fails to provide replacement values.
• Statically specified IP Address — Select this option to manually enter the IP Address, Subnet Mask and Default Gateway.
• IP Address — Must be a valid network address in the server environment. The network administrator must provide this
information.
• Subnet Mask — Enter the value of the subnet mask. For more information, see various options supported by IPV4 in this
section.
• Default Gateway — Use of gateways is optional. For more information, see various options supported by IPV4 in this
section.
• DNS Servers — Use of DNS is optional. DNS allows you to specify remote systems by their host names rather than IP
addresses. If a specific IP address (instead of a name) is entered for a connection, it is rather than DNS is used to make the
connection. Enter the network address of an available DNS server. The value for this box may be supplied by a DHCP server. If
the DHCP server supplies this value, it replaces any locally configured value. If the DHCP server does not supply this value, the
locally configured value is used.
e) Select the check box to enable IEEE802.1x Authentication.
• EAP Type — If you have enabled the Enable IEEEE 802.1x authentication check box, select the EAP Type option you
want (TLS, LEAP or PEAP).
• TLS — If you select the TLS option, click Properties to open and configure the Authentication Properties dialog box.
• Select the Validate Server Certificate check box because it is mandatory to validate your server certificate.
NOTE:
The CA certificate must be installed on the thin client. Also note that the server certificate text
field supports a maximum of approximately 127 characters, and supports multiple server names.
• If you select the Connect to these servers check box, the box is enabled where you can enter the IP address of server.
• Click Browse to find and select the Client Certificate file and Private Key file you want.
The following kinds of server names are supported — all examples are based on Cert common name company.dell.com
NOTE:
Using only the FQDN, that is company.wyse.com does not work. You must use one of the options (note
that *.dell.com is the most common option as multiple authentication servers may exist): servername.dell.com
*.dell.com
*dell.com
*.com
f) LEAP — If you select the LEAP option, click Properties to open and configure the Authentication Properties dialog box. Be
sure to use the correct username and password for authentication. The maximum length for the username or the password is 64
characters.
g) PEAP — If you select the PEAP option, click Properties to open and configure the Authentication Properties dialog box. Be
sure to select either EAP_GTC or EAP_MSCHAPv2, and then use the correct username, password and domain. Validate Server
Certificate is optional.
NOTE:
The server certificate text box for LEAP and PEAP supports a maximum of approximately 127 characters,
and supports multiple server names.
h) To configure EAP-GTC, enter the username only. The password or PIN is required when authenticating.
To configure EAP-MSCHAPv2, enter the username, password and domain.
NOTE: The domain/username in the username box is supported, but you must leave the domain box blank.
The CA certificate must be installed on the thin client and the server certificate is forced to be validated. When EAP-MSCCHAPV2
is selected in EAP type in the Authentication Properties dialog box (for PEEP IEEE802.1x authentication), an option to hide the
domain is available for selection. Username and Password boxes are available for use, but the Domain text box is disabled.
