Functional areas of management console

The Wyse Management Suite console is organized into the following functional areas:

• The Dashboard page provides information about the current status on each functional area of the system.

Users are given permissions to perform operations based on the roles that are assigned to them. Also, the End User tab is added for end user management.

• The Devices page enables you to view and manage devices, device types, and device-specific configurations.

• The Apps & Data page enables management of device applications, application inventory, and file repository.

• The Rules page enables you to add, edit, and enable or disable rules such as auto grouping and alert notifications.
