Administrator Guide

NOTE:
• When you modify the lower-level policies, a bullet symbol is displayed next to the policy. This symbol indicates that the policy is an
override to a higher-level policy. For example, System Personalization, Networking, Security, and so on.
• When you modify policies, an asterisk (*) is displayed next to the policy. This symbol indicates that there are unsaved or
unpublished changes. To review these changes before publishing them, click the View pending changes link.
If a policy conguration has to be prioritized between the dierent levels, then the lowest-level policy takes precedence.
After you congure the policy settings, thin clients are notied about the changes. Changes take eect immediately after conguring the
thin clients.
NOTE: Certain settings, such as BIOS conguration for Windows Embedded Standard require a restart for the changes to take
eect. However, most of the settings on ThinOS, you must restart the device for the changes to take eect.
The policies are enforced in the following precedence:
• Global
• Group
• Device
