administrator for the desired group. To verify the key, click Validate Key.
A Group Registration Key is not required for the private Wyse Management Suite server. You can provide the Wyse

quarantine tenant in Wyse Management Suite.

details, and to enable the CA validation. By default, the MQTT server option is disabled. The MQTT server value is

NOTE: If you enable the Wyse Management Suite, make sure that you have entered the Group Registration Key
and configured the Wyse Management Suite advanced settings.
For more information about using Wyse Management Suite to manage the ThinOS devices, see the Wyse Management Suite
v1.1 Administrator's Guide at Dell.com/manuals.
