HP ThinPro 7.1 - Administrator Guide
Option Description
NOTE: HP ThinPro tries to obtain an IPv6 global address via route advertisement or DHCPv6.
IPv6 Method Lets you select between Automatic and Static. If your network environment is using DHCP, then the
Automatic option should work without any further congurations.
If Static is selected, the Static Address Conguration settings are displayed, and you must enter the
IPv6 settings.
Use the Security tab to congure the connection security settings.
Option Description
Authentication Lets you set the authentication setting to one of the following:
● None
● WEP
● WPA/WPA2-PSK
● WPA/WPA2 Enterprise-TTLS
● WPA/WPA2 Enterprise-PEAP
● WPA/WPA2 Enterprise-TLS
● EAP-FAST
For WEP and WPA/WPA2-PSK, you just need to enter the network key and select OK.
For EAP-FAST, set Anonymous Identity, Username, Password, and Provisioning Method. You do not
need to change the PAC le settings.
See Wired network settings on page 46 for more information about TTLS, PEAP, and TLS.
DNS settings
The following table describes the options available in the DNS tab of the Network Manager.
Option Description
Hostname This is generated automatically according to the MAC address of the thin client. You can alternatively
set a custom hostname.

HTTP Proxy

HTTPs Proxy
