For information about the supported Citrix Workspace App version, Cisco Jabber version, and Imprivata version, see the latest

Dell Wyse ThinOS 9.0 Release Notes at www.dell.com/support.

NOTE: If the package fails to update, or if the thin client does not work after upgrading to the new firmware, remove all

packages and reboot the thin client. Reinstall the package after the reboot.

Steps

1. From the desktop menu of the thin client, go to System Setup > Central Configuration.

The Central Configuration window is displayed.

2. Enter the Group Registration Key as configured by your administrator for the wanted group.

3. Select the Enable WMS Advanced Settings check box.

4. In the WMS server field, enter the Wyse Management Server URL.

5. In the Group Registration Key field, enter the group registration key as configured by your Wyse Management Suite

administrator for your group. To verify the setup, click Validate Key. If the key is not validated, verify the group key and

Wyse Management Suite server URL which you have provided. Ensure that ports mentioned are not blocked by the network.

The default ports are 443 and 1883.

NOTE: If the Group Token parameter is not specified, the device is moved to the unmanaged group or quarantine group.

6. Enable or disable CA validation based on your license type. For public cloud, select the Enable CA Validation check box, and

for private cloud, select the Enable CA Validation check box if you have imported certificates from a well-known certificate

authority into your Wyse Management Suite server.

To enable the CA validation option in the private cloud, you must install the same self-signed certificate on the ThinOS

device as well. If you have not installed the self-signed certificate in the ThinOS device, do not select the Enable CA

Validation check box. You can install the certificate to the device by using Wyse Management Suite after registration, and

then enable the CA validation option.

7. Click OK.

The device is registered to Wyse Management Suite.
