Registering devices by using DHCP option tags to
Wyse Management Suite
About this task
You can register the devices by using the following DHCP option tags:
Table 255. Registering device by using DHCP option tags
Option Tag Description
Name—WMS
Data Type—String
Code—165
Description—WMS Server FQDN
This tag 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.
Name—MQTT
Data Type—String
Code—166
Description—MQTT Server
This tag 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.
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
Name—CA Validation
Data Type—String
Code—167
Description—Certificate Authority
Validation
This tag is required if Wyse Management Suite is installed on your system
in your private cloud. Do not add this option tag if you are registering your
devices with Wyse Management Suite on public cloud.
Enter True, if you have imported the SSL certificates from a well-known
authority for https communication between the client and Wyse Management
Suite server.
Enter False , if you have not imported the SSL certificates from a well-known
authority for https communication between the client and Wyse Management
Suite server.
Registering Wyse Software thin clients by using DNS
SRV record to Wyse Management Suite
DNS based device registration is supported with the Wyse Device Agent: 13.0 or later versions. You can register devices with
the Wyse Management Suite server if DNS SRV record fields are set with valid values. The following table lists the valid values
for the DNS SRV records:
Table 256. 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 the 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.
