Administrator Guide
provide information. Any value provided by the DHCP server replaces any value entered locally on the Options tab,
however, locally entered values are used if the DHCP server fails to provide replacement values.
• Statically specied IP Address —Select this option to manual enter the IP Address, Subnet Mask and Default
Gateway:
– IP Address — Must be a valid network address in the server environment. The network administrator must provide
this information.
– Subnet Mask — Enter the value of the subnet mask. A subnet mask is used to gain access to machines on other
subnets. The subnet mask is used to dierentiate the location of other IP addresses with two choices: same subnet
or other subnet. If the location is other subnet, messages sent to that address must be sent through the Default
Gateway, whether specied through local conguration or through DHCP. The network administrator must provide
this value.
– Default Gateway — Use of gateways is optional. Gateways are used to interconnect multiple networks (routing or
delivering IP packets between them). The default gateway is used for accessing the internet or an intranet with
multiple subnets. If no gateway is specied, the thin client can only address other systems on the same subnet.
Enter the address of the router that connects the thin client to the internet. The address must exist on the same
subnet as the thin client as dened by the IP address and the subnet mask. If DHCP is used, the address can be
supplied through DHCP.
c. Select the IPV6 check box, and then click Advanced to select various IPV6 supported setting options from the available
check boxes.
The following check boxes are displayed in the IPv6 Advanced Settings dialog box:
• Allow IPv4 to be disabled when IPv6 is enabled
• Prefer IPv4 over IPv6 when both are available
• Disable Stateless Address Auto conguration (SLAAC)
• Disable Duplicate Address Detection (DAD)
• Disable ICMPv6 Echo Reply
• Disable ICMPv6 Redirect Support
• Use Standard DHCPv6 Timers
Click Properties and use the following guidelines:
• Wait DHCP—Selecting this option enables your thin client to wait for IPV6 DHCP before the sign-in, if not selected the
system will only wait for IPV4 DHCP if enabled.
• Dynamically allocated over DHCP/BOOTP—Selecting this option enables your thin client to automatically receive
information from the DHCP server. The network administrator must congure the DHCP server (using DHCP options)
to provide information. Any value provided by the DHCP server replaces any value entered locally on the Options tab,
however, locally entered values are used if the DHCP server fails to provide replacement values.
• Statically specied IP Address—Select this option to manually enter the IP Address, Subnet Mask and Default
Gateway.
– IP Address — Must be a valid network address in the server environment. The network administrator must provide
this information.
– Subnet Mask — Enter the value of the subnet mask. For more information, see various options supported by IPV4
in this section.
– Default Gateway — Use of gateways is optional. For more information, see various options supported by IPV4 in
this section.
• DNS Servers — Use of DNS is optional. DNS allows you to specify remote systems by their host names rather than IP
addresses. If a specic IP address (instead of a name) is entered for a connection, it rather than DNS is used to make
the connection. Enter the network address of an available DNS Server. The value for this box may be supplied by a
DHCP server. If the DHCP server supplies this value, it replaces any locally congured value. If the DHCP server does
not supply this value, the locally congured value is used.
d. Select the check box to enable IEEE802.1x authentication.
EAP Type — If you have enabled the Enable IEEEE 802.1x authentication check box, select the EAP Type option you want
(TLS, LEAP, PEAP or FAST).
• TLS — If you select the TLS option, click Properties to open and congure the Authentication Properties dialog box.
– Select the Validate Server Certicate check box because it is mandatory to validate your server certicate.
