4 Configuring Connections

This chapter provides instructions on configuring and adding connections to your Home screen for use (to access the enterprise server environment available to the thin client).

TIP: While it is not recommended to use dialog boxes for configuring connections for thin client use, they are available in case you want to temporarily override central default configurations in some cases or you do not have the option to set up central configuration (smaller environments). In general, it is recommended that you use central configuration to enable you to automatically push any desired default configuration to all supported thin clients in your environment (see "Central Configuration: Automating Configurations").

In addition, the Wyse USB Firmware Tool also provides a simple USB imaging solution for supported devices (see "Enhancing Your Experience with Wyse Software").

Clicking Enter Edit Mode > Add Item on the Home screen opens the Connection Manager. Use the Connection Manager to add the following items to your Home screen for use (high privilege users only):

"Citrix"

"Custom"

"Ericom PowerTerm® TEC"

"RDP"

"SSH"

"VMware View Client"

"VNC Viewer"

"Web Browser"
