manage, and optimize your Dell Hybrid Client powered endpoints and Dell thin clients. It also offers advanced feature options
such as cloud and on-premises deployment, manage-from-anywhere option by using a mobile application, and so on..
Authentication
Dell Wyse Management Suite supports the following processes to authenticate the product subsystems:
● Wyse Management Suite console authentication
● Device registration with Wyse Management Suite
● Wyse Management Suite remote repository authentication
Login security settings
● Administrator console login settings—By default, you can log in to the console using the registered administrator
credentials enabled during installation. The registered administrator can access the product with a registered username and
password. After a failed login, you are notified with the text as
Your login attempt was un successful, try again. Reason: Invalid username or password
HTTPS communication is enabled by default. Security on session is established by enforcing a token authentication for each
request to access the console.
You can also configure Active Directory to enable the Domain account to access the product.
NOTE:
Secure connection to Active Directory can be established with the use of LDAPS protocol. For more information,
see Wyse Management Suite 3.2 Administrator's guide at https://www.dell.com/support/manuals.
● Device login security—Devices are registered with a secured group token. Device check-in and device commands are
performed with a unique device authentication code. Device and Wyse Management Suite coordinates using MQTT in a
secure way.
● Remote repository login settings—Repository is registered with the Wyse Management Suite using the administrator
user accounts.
