Wyse Management Suite Environment Automation using DHCP and DNS

ThinOS automated deployment features can be used to create environments where units can be attached to your network. It also helps in receiving the required configurations and software updates that are defined by your management software or file servers. Wyse Management Suite automated deployment of ThinOS thin client devices is achieved by configuring the following environmental information:

NOTE: DHCP and DNS SRV configurations for Wyse Management Suite can only work after you reset your device to factory default settings.
Table 1. DHCP and DNS configuration for Wyse Management SuiteWyse Management Suite Configuration
Environment Definition DHCP User-Defined Option DNS Resource Record
Wyse Management Suite Server Specifies the Wyse Management Suite server. Option 165 (String) _ WMS_MGMT (SRV)
Wyse Management Suite Server Specifies the secure Wyse Management Suite server. Option 201 (String)
NOTE: Supported from ThinOS 9.1.6108, do not set this value if your current version is earlier than 9.1.6108.
_WMS_MGMTV2
NOTE: Supported from ThinOS 9.1.5067, do not set this value if your current version is earlier than 9.1.5067.
Wyse Management Suite MQTT Server (optional) Specifies the MQTT server. Option 166 (String) _ WMS_MQTT (SRV)
Wyse Management Suite CA Validation Specifies whether the CA validation is required when you import certificates into your Wyse Management Suite server. Option 167 (String) _ WMS_CAVALIDATION (Text)
Wyse Management Suite Group Token Specifies a unique key that is used by Wyse Management Suite to associate the ThinOS client to the desired Device Group Policy. From Wyse Management Suite 3.5, the group tokens are case sensitive. The DHCP and DNS values also have to be configured with case sensitive values. Option 199 (String) _ WMS_GROUPTOKEN (Text)
Wyse Management Suite Group Token Specifies a secure unique key that is used by Wyse Management Suite to associate the ThinOS client to the desired Device Group Policy. Option 202 (String)
NOTE: Supported from ThinOS 9.1.6108, do not set this value if your current version is earlier than 9.1.6108.
_WMS_GROUPTOKENV2
NOTE: Supported from ThinOS 9.1.5067, do not set this value if your current version is earlier than 9.1.5067.

Dell Technologies recommends that you do not define more than one type of management or configuration delivery method. Ensure that all Wyse Device Manager (WDM) and file server configurations that are provided by DHCP or DNS are disabled when defining ThinOS Wyse Management Suite automation values.

NOTE: If the Group Token parameter is not specified, the device is moved to the unmanaged group or quarantine group. This is applicable for on-premises Wyse Management Suite.
NOTE: If you set both WMS server and secure WMS server, secure WMS server takes priority. If you set both unique group token key and secure unique group token key, secure unique group token key takes priority.
