Setting Up the Thin Client 31
Figure 14 Network Setup - Servers tab
Use the following guidelines:
File Servers/Path, Username, and Password - IP address or host name of the FTP
server that provides the system software and update images. The address can be
supplied through DHCP if DHCP is used. Use the following guidelines:
File Servers/Path - Allows 128 characters maximum. The data specifies part of the
path to be used when the server is accessed. Multiple file servers/paths may be
named, as long as all data fits in the length limitation.
Username - To log in to the FTP server. Use 15 characters maximum.
Password - To log in to the FTP server. Use 15 characters maximum.
Note
The FTP server also provides Global and User profiles (if they exist), optional
custom bitmaps to modify the appearance of the login window (if used), and
bitmaps for custom icons to be used when displaying connections on the
desktop.
PN Agent/Lite Servers, Rapport Servers, Time Servers and VDI Brokers - List of IP
addresses or host names with optional TCP port number of Time servers. Each entry
with optional port number is specified as Name-or-IP:port, where :port is optional. If not
specified, port 80 is used. Locations can be supplied through user profiles if user
profiles are used. The Time server(s) provide thin client time based on the settings of
time zone and daylight saving information. If DHCP is used, locations can be supplied
through DHCP. You can also click the PNA command button to open the Reconnect
Options dialog box, and further configure the connection for automatic reconnection.
Note
The Virtual Desktop Broker supports both http and https, and depends on the
Virtual Desktop Broker server support. If http or https is not specified on the
Virtual Desktop Broker server, then http is used by default. If https is
specified, the client side must install a corresponding root certificate.
After making a VDI Brokers entry, be sure to reboot the thin client to have
the changes take effect.
