4. The Select Clients window appears. A tree view of client groups and individual clients is provided in this
window for specifying the applicable scope of this setting prole.
5. Click on arrows to expand the tree and click to select the desired client group or individual clients.
• To select all clients under a client group, click to select the group.
• To select multiple clients under a client group, Ctrl-click to select the desired clients.
NOTE
• The tree view of client groups and individual clients corresponds exactly to client
groups and individual clients established under Thin Clients tab. For information on
how to create client groups and add clients to a group, please refer to “3.4.3 Creating
Client Groups” on page 49 and “3.3.3 Client Detection and Management” on page
40 separately.
• A client can only be associated with a setting prole. If you associate a client with a
new setting prole, it will be automatically removed from the old one.
• Associating a client with a prole does not actually change the settings of the client.
You need to push settings to the client for the change to take eect (a reboot may
be required as well). For instructions on how to push settings to a client, please
refer to section “3.4.15 Pushing Settings to Clients through Your Local Network” on
page 67.
6. After completion, click OK to conrm the selection of applicable clients.
7. Click Save in the Prole Information pane to complete the specication of applicable scope.
NOTE
• Only a well dened setting prole is actually used for remote conguration of
multiple clients. If the applicable scope of a setting prole is not specied, the
prole (group conguration) doesn’t aect any client.
• From now on, we will call a client conguration set up by applying a shared setting
prole a group conguration.
