34 Installing and Configuring Dell Wyse Configuration Manager (WCM)
Configuring DHCP Options
On the DHCP server, you need to add three Wyse vendor tags – 183, 195 &
196. Option Tag 183 defines the protocol to use with WCM. Valid protocols
are FTP, HTTP, and HTTPS. Option Tag 195 identifies the IP address of the
FTP server that the thin client system connects to. Option Tag 196 contains
the directory details of the configuration file that the thin client system
downloads.
