Conguring Zero Client Settings
You can congure available zero client settings on the zero client using the following. Depending on user privilege level, some dialog boxes
and options may not be available for use.
• Local Settings Menu
• Reset Features
NOTE: While it is not recommended to use dialog boxes for conguring zero client settings, they are available in case you want to
temporarily override central default congurations or you do not have the option to set up central conguration (smaller
environments). In general, it is recommended that you use central conguration to enable you to automatically push updates and
any desired default conguration to all supported zero clients in your environment. For more information, see Central
Conguration: Automating Updates and Congurations
