System administration

To maintain your thin client device environment, you can perform local and remote system administration tasks. The tasks include:

• Accessing thin client BIOS settings

• Unied Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI) and secure boot

• Using Wyse Management Suite

• Ports and slots

• Using Tight VNC (Sever and Viewer) to shadow a thin client

Accessing thin client BIOS settings

To access the thin client BIOS settings, do the following:

1 During system start-up, press F2 when you see a Dell logo.

The BIOS Setup screen is displayed.

2 Change the BIOS settings as required.

3 Save the changes and exit.

Unied Extensible Firmware Interface and secure boot

Unied Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI) is a standard rmware interface designed to improve software interoperability and address

limitations of BIOS. UEFI is designed to replace Basic Input Output System (BIOS).

Secure Boot is a feature on UEFI-based clients that help increase the security of a client by preventing unauthorized software from running

on a client during the boot sequence. It checks whether each software has a valid signature, including the operating system (OS) that is

loaded during booting.

The thin client device is enabled with UEFI and Secure Boot. Due to this feature, you cannot boot from USB keys if you do not enter the

BIOS, disable Secure Boot, change the boot mode to Legacy, and enable the Boot from USB option.

Booting from DOS USB key

The following table provides guidelines to boot from a DOS USB key on the supported thin client devices:
