You can register devices with the Wyse Management Suite server if DNS SRV record fields are set with valid values.
NOTE: For detailed instructions on how to add DNS SRV records on the Windows server, see How do I create and
configure DNS SRV record.
The following table lists the valid values for the DNS SRV records:
Table 4. Configuring device by using DNS SRV record
URL/Tag Description
Record Name—_WMS_MGMT
Record FQDN—_WMS_MGMT._tcp.<Domainname>
Record Type— SRV
This record points to the Wyse Management Suite server URL. For
example, wmsserver.acme.com:443, where
wmsserver.acme.com is fully qualified domain name of the server
where Wyse Management Suite is installed.
NOTE: Do not use https:// in the server URL, or the thin
client will not register under Wyse Management Suite.
Record Name—_WMS_MQTT
Record FQDN—_WMS_MQTT._tcp.<Domainname>
Record Type—SRV
This record directs the device to the Wyse Management Suite
Push Notification server (PNS). For a private cloud installation, the
device gets directed to the MQTT service on the Wyse
Management Suite server. For example,
wmsservername.domain.com:1883.
NOTE: MQTT is optional for the latest version of Wyse
Management Suite.
To register your devices in Wyse Management Suite public cloud,
the device should point to the PNS (MQTT) servers in public
cloud. For example,
US1—us1-pns.wysemanagementsuite.com
EU1—eu1-pns.wysemanagementsuite.com
Record Name—_WMS_GROUPTOKEN
Record FQDN—_WMS_GROUPTOKEN._tcp.<Domainname>
Record Type— TEXT
This record is required to register the ThinOS devices with Wyse
Management Suite on public or private cloud.
This record is optional to register the Windows Embedded
Standard or ThinLinux devices with Wyse Management Suite on
private cloud. If the record is not available, then the devices are
automatically registered to the unmanaged group during on-
premise installation.
NOTE: Group Token is optional for the latest version of
Wyse Management Suite on private cloud.
Record Name—_WMS_CAVALIDATION
Record FQDN—_WMS_CAVALIDATION._tcp.<Domainname>
Record Type—TEXT
You can enable or disable CA validation option if you are registering
your devices with Wyse Management Suite on private cloud. By
