B Troubleshooting This appendix includes troubleshooting information. Note For Wyse Customer Support information, see "Wyse Technical Support." Problem Solution When attempting to image a cloud client you receive an ARP Timeout error. This means that the cloud client was unable to obtain an IP address from your DHCP server on the router (ARP means Address Resolution Protocol). This indicates a problem with your DHCP server on the router (see your router documentation to fix the problem).
14 Appendix B Problem Solution When attempting to image a cloud client you receive an Illegal TFTP operation error message. Use the following: • If this is the first you are attempting to image using Wyse Simple Imager, more than likely this is an installation problem. Review the Wyse Simple Imager installation section and verify the installation process. • If Wyse Simple Imager worked correctly in the past, try re-imaging a different cloud client.
