By default, the WMS option is selected. Wyse Management Suite service automatically runs after the client boot up.
If the first discovery, for example, the Wyse Management Suite service is not successful, it seeks for the next priority,
for example, WDM service. This continues until a discovery is successful. If all discoveries fail, then it is started again
automatically after a fixed time—24 hours.
a. Enable Wyse Management Suite (WMS)—Select the check box to enable the Wyse Management Suite to discover
your thin client.
b. DNS SRV record—Select this check box if you want the thin client to obtain the Wyse Management Suite values
through DNS server, and then try to register into the Wyse Management Suite server. By default, the check box is
selected. If the check box selection is canceled, the thin client cannot obtain the Wyse Management Suite values through
DNS server.
To create DNS records in DNS server, use the following information:
# WMS server URL
DNS Record Type: DNS SRV
Record Name: _WMS_MGMT._TCP.<Domain>
Value Returned: WDMNG Server URL
Example: _WMS_MGMT._TCP.WDADEV.com
# MQTT Server URL
DNS Record Type: DNS SRV
Record Name: _WMS_MQTT._TCP.<Domain>
Value Returned: WMS Server URL
Example: _WMS_MQTT._TCP.WDADEV.com
# Group Token
DNS Record Type: DNS Text
Record Name: _WMS_GROUPTOKEN.<Domain>
Value Returned: Group Token (as String)
Example: _WMS_GROUPTOKEN .WDADEV.com
