Preface  
Overview  
The Cisco Virtualization Client 6215 (Cisco VXC 6215) delivers superior voice and video collaboration  
capabilities in desktop virtualization. It unifies voice, video, and virtual desktop in one device.  
The Cisco VXC 6215 provides workers with secure, real-time access to business applications and  
content without compromising the collaborative user experience. Cisco VXC 6215 supports the  
following capabilities:  
Combines virtual desktops with voice and video capabilities  
Supports processing capabilities that use network and data center CPU resources efficiently  
Supports high-quality, scalable voice and video, delivering an optimal user experience  
The Cisco VXC 6215 provides support for the following hosted virtual desktop protocols:  
Citrix Independent Computing Architecture (ICA)  
PC over IP (PCoIP) (in base virtual desktop infrastructure [VDI] mode only)  
Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) (in base VDI mode only)  
By default, the firmware installed on the Cisco VXC 6215 client is Base VDI Firmware. The Base VDI  
firmware supports desktop virtualization capabilities, but does not provide the additional voice and video  
functionality required for Unified Communications. To support Unified Communications, you must  
purchase and install the Voice and Video Firmware Add-on. For more information, see the Deployment  
Guide for Voice and Video Firmware for Cisco Virtualization Experience Client 6215.

Central Configuration Using Cisco VXC Manager  
This chapter provides information to help you manage your thin clients. It describes basic thin client  
management functions and provides information about setting up the thin client for your users.  
Cisco thin clients are designed to be centrally managed and configured using INI files and the Cisco  
VXC Manager. Cisco VXC Manager allows you to automatically push updates and any desired default  
configuration to all supported thin clients in your environment.  
This chapter includes:  
Cisco VXC Manager  
Cisco VXC Manager is the standard tool used to push and schedule INI configuration updates to your  
thin clients. Cisco VXC Manager allows you to configure, upgrade, and administer your clients from a  
single interface. Cisco VXC Manager also allows you to specify default configurations that are common  
to all of the thin clients in your environment. It also allows you to enable or disable add-ons, which can  
provide additional functionality in addition to the underlying firmware.  
Administration Guide for Cisco Virtualization Experience Client 6215 Firmware Release 8.7

Chapter 1 Central Configuration Using Cisco VXC Manager  
Cisco VXC 6215 Add-Ons  
INI files are employed as follows:  
wlx.ini—This is the global INI file. One wlx.ini file is available to all users. It contains global  
parameters for all thin clients accessing the server.  
$MAC.ini—This file is used for device-specific configuration. It is stored in the same directory as  
the wlx.ini file. If the thin client locates this INI file on the server, the thin client uses the $MAC.ini  
file for its configuration rather than the wlx.ini file. In this case, the thin client does not access the  
wlx.ini file unless you specify the include=wlx.ini parameter in the $MAC.ini file.  
When a thin client is initialized, it accesses the global wlx.ini file (or $MAC.ini file, if present).  
For detailed information on constructing and using INI files with the Cisco VXC 6215, see Cisco  
Virtualization Experience Client 6215 INI Files Reference Guide.  
Cisco VXC 6215 Add-Ons  
The Cisco VXC 6215 firmware includes default add-ons that provide increased security for the thin  
client and minimize the exposure of the SUSE Linux base operating system to users, while still providing  
users with useful functionality.  
Add-ons are feature-specific software components that provide additional customized functionality on  
the Cisco VXC 6215 thin clients without affecting the underlying operating system files.  
The Cisco add-on applications that are bundled by default on the Cisco VXC 6215 include the following:  
Autologin  
The Autologin (autologin-1.0-2.sletc11sp1.rpm) add-on allows the Cisco VXC 6215 to boot with the  
thin user credentials without requiring the user to provide the credentials.  
After the thin client boots up, the login screen initially appears, and after approximately 10 to 15  
seconds, the thin client automatically logs the user into the thin client using thinuser/thinuser as the  
default username and password.  
Caution  
For proper operation of the Cisco VXC 6215, the Autologin add-on must always be enabled and running  
on the thin client (the default configuration). Do not remove or disable the Autologin add-on as this is  
an unsupported configuration. Operation with the Autologin add-on enabled is the only supported mode  
of operation. If you do remove the Autologin add-on, you must reinstall it by reinstalling the latest Base  
VDI Firmware Release available on cisco.com.  
CiscoConfig  
The CiscoConfig add-on (ciscoconfig-1.0-2.sletc11sp1.rpm) provides additional functionality to the  
user beyond that provided by the Autologin add-on. With the CiscoConfig add-on, the Cisco VXC 6215  
provides access to additional applications including system information, display settings, Cisco VXC  
Manager settings, and the Firefox browser through the Application Browser (Computer > More  
Applications).  
Caution  
As the CiscoConfig add-on is required for proper functioning of the Autologin add-on, the CiscoConfig  
add-on must always be enabled and running on the thin client (the default configuration). If you do  
remove the CiscoConfig add-on, you must reinstall it by reinstalling the latest Base VDI Firmware  
Release available on cisco.com.

Chapter 1 Central Configuration Using Cisco VXC Manager  
Cisco VXC 6215 Deployment with a Cisco Virtual Office Router  
Caution  
By default, an administrator username and password admin/admin is specified on the thin  
client. Cisco VXC 6215 does not support operation of the client using the administrator  
username and password in the current release (the only supported mode of operation is using  
the thinuser credentials). However, Cisco recommends that you change the administrator  
password using INI parameters to prevent unauthorized access to the client.  
Step 4  
Step 5  
Set up a configuration package in Cisco VXC Manager referencing the desired INI configuration. You  
can also optionally set up an add-on package to push additional add-ons to the thin clients (see  
Administration Guide for Cisco Virtualization Experience Client Manager).  
Set up device discovery in Cisco VXC Manager (DHCP is the recommended method—see  
Administration Guide for Cisco Virtualization Experience Client Manager).  
Caution  
For proper operation of the thin clients, you must specify a value either for DHCP Option 15  
(Domain Name) or for DHCP Option 6 (Domain Server) in the DHCP server configuration. If  
you do not specify a standard domain name for DHCP Option 15, and you do not specify a  
standard domain server for DHCP Option 6, you must specify “none” for DHCP Option 15.  
This configuration is necessary whether or not you are using DHCP to direct the thin clients  
to the central server.  
Step 6  
Connect the thin clients to the network and power them up.  
The thin clients automatically update to the latest INI file configuration and add-ons, as applicable.  
Cisco VXC 6215 Deployment with a Cisco Virtual Office Router  
When the Cisco VXC 6215 is first deployed behind a Cisco Virtual Office Router, the thin client must  
authenticate with the Cisco Virtual Office Router VPN tunnel before accessing the network and  
connecting to the Cisco VXC Manager. To authenticate the thin client, the user must use the Firefox  
browser to enter the necessary credentials. In addition, to communicate with the Cisco VXC Manager,  
the user must provide the Cisco VXC Manager server IP address.  
Note  
This procedure is required only for the initial connection to the network from behind a Cisco Virtual  
Office router. The procedure assumes a factory new Cisco VXC 6215. Subsequent connections do not  
require these steps. The procedure also assumes that you have set up the thin client environment,  
including the configuration of connection parameters (Connect options) in the INI file to allow  
connection to a virtualization server.  
Procedure  
Step 1  
Step 2  
Step 3  
Connect the Cisco VXC 6215 to the Cisco Virtual Office router.  
Power up the Cisco VXC 6215.  
Click Computer > More Applications > Firefox to launch the Firefox web browser.  
The Cisco Virtual Office router prompts the user for credentials.  
Enter the required Cisco Virtual Office router credentials.

Recognizing USB Devices with Citrix XenDesktop  
With HDX Plug-n-Play technology, the USB camera is detached from the Cisco VXC 6215 and virtually  
attached to the XenDesktop session. All the native functionalities of the USB camera are available in the  
XenDesktop session.  
Both HDX RealTime Webcam and HDX Plug-n-Play are supported with Base VDI-only firmware and  
with the Voice and Video Firmware Add-on. However, HDX RealTime Webcam is the recommended  
option as it is a more scalable and robust solution.  
Note  
HDX Plug-n-Play is available in XenDesktop 4.0, 5.0, and 5.5, but HDX RealTime Webcam is only  
available in Release 5.0 and later.  
For additional details, see XenDesktop documentation.  
Guidelines for HDX Plug-n-Play with XenDesktop 4.0  
To use HDX Plug-n-Play for USB camera operation with XenDesktop 4.0, see the following guidelines:  
To allow the client to recognize any USB device, configure the XenDesktop policies to allow USB  
redirection. (See XenDesktop documentation for details.)  
In addition, include the ICAAllowUSB parameter in the INI file for the client, specifying the  
VID/PID combination for the specific devices to be recognized.  
For example, to recognize the Logitech Quickcam Pro 9000 (VID=046d, PID=0809) and the  
Microsoft LifeCam Cinema (VID=045e, PID=075d), include the following in the INI file:  
ICAAllowUSB=vid=046d,pid=0809,vid=045e,pid=075d  
Guidelines for HDX Plug-n-Play with XenDesktop 5.0 and 5.5  
To use HDX Plug-n-Play for USB camera operation with XenDesktop 5.0 and 5.5, see the following  
guidelines:  
To allow the client to recognize any USB device, configure the XenDesktop user policy to allow  
USB redirection. (See XenDesktop documentation for details.)  
To allow all USB devices or all devices of a certain class (for example, CD drives or cameras) to be  
recognized, configure the XenDesktop default USB policy rules. (For details, see the XenDesktop  
Administrator's Guide.)  
Alternatively, or if you still encounter issues with particular devices even after configuring allowed  
device classes, do the following:  
Configure the user policy to specify the PID and VID of the USB devices in use. (See  
XenDesktop documentation for details.)  
Include the ICAAllowUSB parameter in the INI file for the client, specifying the VID/PID  
combination for the specific devices to be recognized.  
For example, to recognize the Logitech Quickcam Pro 9000 (VID=046d, PID=0809) and the  
Microsoft LifeCam Cinema (VID=045e, PID=075d), enter the following:  
ICAAllowUSB=vid=046d,pid=0809,vid=045e,pid=075d

Chapter 2 Cisco VXC Manager Configuration Quick Reference  
Client Discovery Using Cisco VXC Manager  
Client Discovery Using Cisco VXC Manager  
Cisco VXC Manager is the standard tool for managing the Cisco VXC 6215. Cisco VXC Manager allows  
you to configure, upgrade, and administer your thin clients from a single interface. It also allows you to  
specify default configurations that are common to all of the thin clients in your environment. You can  
also use it to enable add-ons, which provide additional functionality in addition to the underlying  
firmware.  
Cisco VXC Manager can discover the Cisco VXC 6215 devices in your network using either dynamic  
discovery or a manual process. After Cisco VXC Manager identifies the devices in the network, it stores  
information about them in the Cisco VXC Manager Database. You can then use Cisco VXC Manager to  
manage the devices.  
For the Cisco VXC 6215, the recommended discovery method uses a DHCP server. In this case, you must  
configure DHCP Option Tags (186 and 190, or 186 and 192) on your DHCP server to specify the IP  
address and port of the Cisco VXC Manager Web Server. The Cisco VXC Manager Agent (HAgent) on  
the Cisco VXC 6215 uses this information to communicate with the Cisco VXC Manager Web Server,  
performing check-ins at boot up and at regular intervals. The Hagent provides the Cisco VXC Manager  
with device information including device name, hardware information, network information, and image  
version.  
For detailed configuration steps for DHCP discovery, see Configuring the DHCP Server for Device  
Caution  
For proper operation of the thin clients, you must specify a value either for DHCP Option 15 (Domain  
Name) or for DHCP Option 6 (Domain Server) in the DHCP server configuration. If you do not specify  
a standard domain name for DHCP Option 15, and you do not specify a standard domain server for  
DHCP Option 6, you must specify “none” for DHCP Option 15. This configuration is necessary whether  
or not you are using DHCP to direct the thin clients to the central server.  
For information about additional discovery methods with Cisco VXC Manager, see Administration  
Guide for Cisco Virtualization Experience Client Manager.  
Configuring the DHCP Server for Device Discovery  
To allow Cisco VXC Manager to discover the Cisco VXC 6215 devices, configure the following option  
tag values on your DHCP server:  
Option tag 186—IP address of your Cisco VXC Manager server (for example, 192.168.1.10). The  
value should be in 4-byte IP address format.  
Option tag 190—Secure port number to which Cisco VXC Manager server listens (for example, port  
443). The value should be in word format (value = 0x01bb) or 2-byte array format (value = 0x01  
0xbb).  
Option tag 192—Non-secure port number to which Cisco VXC Manager server listens (for example,  
80). The value should be in either word format (value = 0x0050), or 2-byte array format (value=  
0x00 0x50).  
Tip  
Do not run the Cisco VXC Manager server and the DHCP server on the same machine.

Create a wlx.ini File for Client Configuration  
Create a wlx.ini File for Client Configuration  
Cisco VXC 6215 Initialization (INI) files are plain-text files that you construct to specify the  
configuration parameters you want to apply to your thin clients. The most commonly used INI file,  
wlx.ini, contains the global parameters you want to apply to all thin clients in your environment. (Cisco  
VXC Manager also allows you to specify a subset of thin clients to which a particular wlx.ini  
configuration applies.)  
The Cisco VXC 6215 supports a number of INI configuration parameters. See INI File Examples,  
page 2-8 for some useful examples, including configurations required to create XenDesktop, VMware  
View, and RDP connections. For a complete list of supported INI parameters, see Cisco Virtualization  
Experience Client 6215 INI Files Reference Guide.  
Caution  
By default, an administrator username and password admin/admin is specified on the thin client. Cisco  
VXC 6215 does not support operation of the client using the administrator username and password in  
the current release (the only supported mode of operation is using the thinuser credentials). However,  
Cisco recommends that you change the administrator password using the ChangeAdminPassword INI  
parameter to prevent unauthorized access to the client.  
To create the wlx.ini file, perform the following procedure.  
Procedure  
Step 1  
Step 2  
Open a text file.  
Enter the INI parameters required in accordance with INI File Examples, page 2-8 or Cisco  
Virtualization Experience Client 6215 INI Files Reference Guide.  
Step 3  
Step 4  
Save the file as wlx.ini.  
After you create the wlx.ini file, you must create a Cisco VXC Manager package to push the wlx.ini  
INI File Examples  
Firefox Browser Configuration Example  
The following is a simple INI file that you can use to test the Cisco VXC Manager client update process.  
After the package process is successful using this file, the client will load the INI file, and launch the  
Firefox browser with cisco.com as the home page.  
Example:  
CONNECT=BROWSER \  
Description="Cisco Home Page" \  
Resolution=FullScreen \  
Mode=Normal \  
autoconnect=yes \

Create a wlx.ini File for Client Configuration  
XenDesktop INI Configuration Example  
To create XenDesktop server connections, use the Mozilla Firefox Connect options to specify the URL  
of the XenDesktop server to which users must connect. When the server URL is specified in the INI  
configuration, Firefox opens to this URL and the user can enter their credentials to initiate the  
connection to the HVD.  
Example:  
CONNECT=BROWSER \  
Description="Windows Desktop" \  
Reconnect=yes \  
ReconnectSeconds=5 \  
AutoConnect=yes \  
mode=kiosk  
Caution  
In the above example, replace xd.company.com with the URL of your XenDesktop server.  
With the optional Autoconnect=yes parameter specified in the preceding example, the browser connects  
to the specified URL when the client boots up. In addition, the optional Reconnect=yes and  
ReconnectSeconds=5 parameters specify to reconnect a disconnected connection after 5 seconds.  
Finally, the optional mode=kiosk parameter specifies to operate in kiosk mode, in which Firefox operates  
in full-screen mode with no access to the address bar.  
VMware View INI Configuration Example  
The following is an example configuration for a VMware View connection.  
Example:  
CONNECT=VMWARE_VIEWCLIENT \

can then schedule for distribution to your devices.  
Caution  
Do not modify INI files directly on the Cisco VXC 6215 as doing so can cause configuration issues and  
operational errors. Only use Cisco VXC Manager to push the INI files to the clients.  
Required Folder Structure with Cisco VXC Manager  
With Cisco VXC Manager, you must create and register specific packages to push upgrades and  
configurations to your clients.  
Cisco VXC Manager packages are structured relative to the location of an RSP file. To register the  
package with Cisco VXC Manager, the package must contain a unique RSP file and, at the same folder  
level, a folder with the same name as the RSP filename. This folder serves as the root folder for the  
remaining configuration files in the package.  
For example, assuming <packagename>.rsp is the RSP file, the folder structure required to register the  
package is as follows:  
~/<packagename>.rsp  
~/<packagename>/wlx  
~/<packagename>/wlx/bitmap  
~/<packagename>/wlx/certs  
~/<packagename>/addons  
You can create this structure in any location on your Cisco VXC Manager server, as long as the  
placement of the folders relative to the RSP file remains the same.  
Note  
If a folder does not contain a required file for the package, the folder can be omitted from the package  
directory structure. For example, if the package contains no graphics, the /wlx/bitmap folder is not  
required.  
After you register the package, Cisco VXC Manager stores the package files in the software repository  
under c:\inetpub\ftproot\Rapport\<packagename>.

Create a Cisco VXC Manager Package for the wlx.ini File  
Caution  
Do not attempt to modify a registered package located in the Rapport folder. To modify a package, you  
must create and register a new package that includes the required changes.  
Use the following procedure to create a Cisco VXC Manager package containing the wlx.ini file for  
Cisco VXC 6215 client configuration (see Create a wlx.ini File for Client Configuration, page 2-8 for  
information on creating the wlx.ini file).  
Procedure  
Step 1  
Step 2  
Create a folder to contain the client configurations, for example 6215Configs.  
In the 6215Configs folder, create an RSP file, for example SLE1.rsp, with the following content (to  
create the RSP file, enter the required content in a text editor, and then save the file with a .rsp extension):  
[Version]  
Number=SLE1  
OS=SLX  
Category=Other Packages  
USE_Pxe=NO  
[Script]  
RP "<regroot>"  
EX "/usr/bin/perl /sbin/dhcp2registry"  
EX "/usr/sbin/thinclient-config --set-update-mode both"  
EX "/usr/sbin/thinclient-config --set-force-image-update no"  
EX "sync"  
EX "sleep 2"

Note  
This RSP script is provided as an example; you may need to reconfigure the parameters depending on  
your environment. See the Administration Guide for Cisco Virtualization Experience Client Manager for  
details about configuring RSP files.  
where the "Number=" segment must have the exact same value as the RSP file name.  
Step 3  
Also in the 6215Configs folder, create a subfolder using the same name as the RSP file name, for  
example SLE1.  
Step 4  
Step 5  
In the SLE1 folder, create a subfolder named wlx.  
In the wlx folder, copy the wlx.ini that contains the required configuration.  
For example:  
Location and name of the .rsp file:  
C:\VXC-M\6215Configs\SLE1.rsp  
Location and name of the wlx directory:  
C:\VXC-M\6215Configs\SLE1\wlx  
Location and name of wlx.ini file in the wlx directory:  
C:\VXC-M\6215Configs\SLE1\wlx\wlx.ini

A DDC allows you to set default configurations for a group of devices and ensures that the devices  
conform to your configurations. That is, if there is any deviation from your default configurations, Cisco  
VXC Manager reverts the devices to your specified configurations automatically (Cisco VXC Manager  
automatically sends the Cisco VXC Manager packages in the DDC to the devices according to your  
schedule and without your intervention).  
See the following sections to configure a DDC:

EX "echo 'export NO_PROXY=<.local-domain.com>' >> /etc/bash.bashrc.local"  
RB  
RB  
Where:  
You must replace <proxy-server.com:443>with the address and port of the proxy server for the  
specified protocols.  
You must replace <.local-domain.com>with your local domain name to be added to the proxy  
bypass list. For example:  
EX "echo 'export no_proxy=.cisco.com' >> /etc/bash.bashrc.local"  
You must ensure the Number=segment has the exact same value as the RSP file name.  
Step 3  
Also in the 6215Configs folder, create a subfolder using the same name as the RSP file name, for  
example ProxyConfig.  
Step 4  
Step 5  
In the ProxyConfig folder, create a subfolder named wlx.  
In the wlx folder, copy the wlx.ini file containing your existing INI configuration that you want retained  
after the configuration update.  
For example:  
Location and name of the .rsp file:  
C:\VXC-M\6215Configs\ ProxyConfig.rsp  
Location and name of the wlx directory:  
C:\VXC-M\6215Configs\ ProxyConfig\wlx  
Location and name of wlx.ini file in the wlx directory:

Desktop Basics  
This chapter provides information to help you quickly get started using your thin client. It describes  
basic thin client functions and provides instructions for setting up the thin client for you and your users.  
It includes:  
Tip  
Cisco thin clients are designed to be centrally managed and configured using Cisco VXC Manager and  
INI files. You can use Cisco VXC Manager to automatically push updates and any desired default  
configuration to all supported thin clients in your environment. For more information, see Central  
Logging In  
The options and menus that are available on the thin client depend on access levels and on the add-ons  
that are enabled on the thin client. By default, the Autologin add-on is enabled on the thin client, which  
automatically logs users into the local thin client desktop after they power up the thin client.  
On initial connection to central configuration, plug in the network-connected Ethernet cable to the thin  
client before starting the thin client to obtain the configuration settings (connections, system settings,  
required certificates and so on) desired by the administrator.  
Note  
After the thin client boots up, there is a short delay before it initiates the autologin process. The user is  
initially presented with the login screen, and after approximately 10 to 15 seconds, the thin client  
automatically logs the user into the thin client using thinuser/thinuser as the default username and  
password.  
After the thin client is powered on, the users are presented with a Firefox connection icon on the desktop  
which they can use to log into the HVD. To connect to the HVD, double-click the icon and enter the  
required login credentials.

Central Configuration Using File Server  
This appendix contains information about configuring thin clients using a central file server as an  
alternative to Cisco VXC Manager.  
Cisco VXC Manager is the standard tool for central management. As an alternative method for thin client  
management, you can configure a local file server from which the thin clients can obtain INI files for  
their configuration.  
Caution  
Central configuration using a file server provides fewer capabilities for hands-on client management,  
and is therefore recommended only in test environments or for troubleshooting. Cisco VXC Manager is  
the standard tool for thin client management.  
For information about configuring thin clients using Cisco VXC Manager, see Central Configuration  
Using Cisco VXC Manager, page 1-1 and the Administration Guide for Cisco Virtualization Experience  
Client Manager.  
This appendix includes:  
For detailed information on constructing and using INI files, see the Cisco Virtualization Experience  
Client 6215 INI Files Reference Guide.  
How INI Files Are Employed  
INI files (created and maintained by the network administrator) determine how the thin client is  
configured and updated. The thin client accesses INI files from the server during the initialization  
process. Typically, INI files are accessed through FTP, HTTP, or HTTPS; if no protocol is specified, the  
default is anonymous FTP.  
INI files are employed as follows:  
wlx.ini—This is the global INI file. One wlx.ini file is available to all users. It contains global  
parameters for all thin clients accessing the server.  
$MAC.ini—This file can be used for device-specific configuration. If the thin client locates this INI  
file (it is stored in the same directory as wlx.ini), wlx.ini is not accessed, unless you use the  
include=wlx.ini parameter.  
When a thin client is initialized, it accesses the global wlx.ini file.

Appendix A Central Configuration Using File Server  
How to Set Up Central Configuration Using a File Server  
How to Set Up Central Configuration Using a File Server  
For the thin client to successfully access INI files and update itself from a server, you must set up the  
server with the correct folder structure (where the INI files and other update files are located), direct the  
thin client to the server, and then reboot or start the thin client.  
After DHCP and servers are configured and available, the thin client checks (at each bootup) to see  
whether or not any updates are available on a predefined server (DCHP Option 161 specifies the server  
URL; DCHP Option 162 specifies the root path to the server). If updates are available, the updates are  
automatically installed.  
Step 1: Prepare the Root Directory and Folder Structure on the File Server  
Set up the following folder structure on your server under the C:/inetpub/ftproot folder (for FTP) or  
C:/inetpub/wwwroot folder (for HTTP or HTTPS) and place your INI files and other necessary files  
inside the structure as noted (this list describes the folder structure, starting with the root directory).  
/wyse/  
The root directory. It stores the wlx folder and the add-ons folder. It  
also stores the following files, which are used for imaging and  
updating devices:  
Latest-image.raw  
Latest-image.raw.info  
/wyse/wlx  
The main INI configuration folder. It stores the following:  
wlx.ini file or $MAC.ini file  
bitmap folder  
certs folder  
/wyse/wlx/bitmap  
/wyse/wlx/certs  
The folder where you can place custom images you plan to use.  
The folder where you can place the CA certificates that can be  
imported to a thin client.  
Note  
Use the Certs and ImportCerts INI parameters in the wlx.ini  
file to import the certificates to thin clients.  
/wyse/addons  
The folder where you can place the add-ons you want to use. It also  
stores the directory file and the *.rpm packages available to be  
installed on the thin client. The directory file should list all available  
add-ons. The directory file is required in the add-ons folder to  
guarantee that add-ons are properly located.  
The following figure shows how to set up the folder structure on your file server and where to place INI  
files and other necessary files inside the structure.

Appendix A Central Configuration Using File Server  
How to Set Up Central Configuration Using a File Server  
Figure A-1  
Folder Structure  
Be sure to create/activate the required MIME Types (.ini, .raw, .info, .rpm, and .) under IIS (on a per site  
basis) to enable downloading. Also be sure your web server can identify the file types used by Cisco thin  
clients.  
To create/activate a MIME Type:  
Step 1  
Step 2  
On your IIS server, use the File Types menu to add a New Type.  
In the File Type dialog box, enter the Associated extension: (.ini, .raw. .info, .rpm, or .). and Content  
type.  
Step 3  
Click OK to apply the settings.  
Repeat the steps above for each required MIME type, specifying the appropriate extension and content  
type.  
Step 2: Direct the Thin Client to the Server  
After you set up the folder structure and populate it with the correct files, you must then direct the thin  
client to the location of the server using DHCP.

Appendix A Central Configuration Using File Server  
How to Set Up Central Configuration Using a File Server  
Using DHCP  
With the DHCP method of configuring the file server location (recommended), the thin clients obtain  
information about the server and root directory using the following DHCP options:  
161—Specifies the server  
162—Specifies the root path to the server (ftp/http/https)  
If no root path is defined, /wyse is assumed.  
If a root path is defined, the additional path is appended to the URL supplied by Option 161.  
184—(Optional) Specifies the server username (for the server specified in Option 161)  
185—(Optional) Specifies the server password (for the server specified in Option 161.  
Tip  
The thin clients perform the check-in for firmware updates early in the boot process. For that reason, a  
unit may not receive changes in DHCP information until it completes a full boot. However, you can avoid  
this scenario by forcing a renewing of the DHCP lease, which ensures that the unit has the latest  
file-server location before the next firmware check.  
Use the guidelines shown in Table A-1 when you create and add the DHCP options you need.

Notes  
161  
Server (ftp/http/https)  
Optional string. If this is an IP address or resolvable hostname, the  
protocol is assumed to be FTP; however, it may be the leading  
portion of a URL that specifies another protocol. If the URL form  
is used, it should not include a trailing slash (for example,  
162  
Root path to the server (ftp/http/https)  
Optional string. The relative directory starting from the root  
directory must be given. For example, on an FTP server, the full  
directory may be C:/Inetpub/ftproot/wyse, where wyse is the  
directory that contains the firmware. In this example, the correct  
string value for this DHCP option is /wyse.  
On a Linux server, an FTP user-based directory might be  
/home/test/wyse. In this example, if the FTP user is test, then the  
FTP root path is /wyse and not the full path (/home/test/wyse).  
This value should use URL path notation (start with a forward  
slash, /, and use a forward slash as folder separators).  
181  
182  
PN Server  
Optional string. IP address or FQDN of the PNLite server.

Server Password  
Optional string. Password to use when authenticating to the server  
specified in Option 161.  
Cisco VXC Manager  
XenDesktop DDC URL  
Cisco VXC Manager FQDN  
Optional binary IP address of the Cisco VXC Manager server. This  
option can specify up to one Cisco VXC Manager server.  
Optional string. You can connect to your XenDesktop URL by  
using DCP Option tag 191 to specify the XenDesktop DDC URL.  
Optional FQDN of the Cisco VXC Manager server. This option can  
specify up to one Cisco VXC Manager server.  
Step 3: Rebooting  
To reboot your thin client, click Computer > Shutdown and choose Restart.  
Note  
To reboot the client, use the Restart option to ensure the client performs a full boot sequence. This step  
is especially important when you are upgrading client firmware or configurations; otherwise, the  
upgrades may not take effect.  
After you reboot (or start the thin client), the thin client searches in the defined root path for the latest  
available image and updates if necessary. Additionally, it checks the directory file in the add-ons folder  
to determine whether any updates for installed add-ons are defined. Add-ons that exist in the add-ons  
folder but are not listed in the directory file are ignored during update check-in.

Using TightVNC Viewer to Shadow or Monitor a  
Thin Client  
TightVNC Server is installed locally on the thin client. It allows administrators to  
shadow/operate/monitor a thin client from a remote machine on which TightVNC Viewer is installed  
(TightVNC Viewer is available from the TightVNC website and must be installed on the  
remote/shadowing machine before use; it is also included as a component of Cisco VXC Manager  
software).  
TightVNC (Server and Viewer) allows a remote administrator to configure or reset a thin client from a  
remote location rather than making a personal appearance at the thin client site (VNC is intended  
primarily for support and troubleshooting purposes). TightVNC Server starts automatically as a service  
at thin client startup if the administrator has configured it using the INI file.  
The administrator must configure the client using INI parameters to enable VNC access. You must use  
the same INI file configuration to enable VNC whether you are using Cisco VXC manager or TightVNC  
Viewer to access the thin client. See INI Configuration Example for Enabling VNC, page B-2 for an  
example configuration, and see the Cisco Virtualization Experience Client 6215 INI Files Reference  
Guide for additional configuration details.  
Before an administrator on a remote machine (on which TightVNC Viewer is installed) can access a thin  
client (with TightVNC Server) the administrator must know the following:  
The IP address (or valid DNS name) of the thin client that is to be shadowed/operated/monitored  
The security password of the thin client that is to be shadowed/operated/monitored.  
To shadow a thin client from a remote machine:  
Procedure  
Step 1  
Open the New Tight VNC Connection dialog box (for example, from Microsoft Windows, click Start >  
All Programs > TightVNC > TightVNC Viewer).

Step 2  
Step 3  
Enter the IP address or valid DNS name of the thin client that is to be shadowed/operated/monitored (you  
can also set other options using the command buttons).  
Click OK to open the VNC Authentication dialog box.  
Figure B-2  
Standard VNC Authentication Dialog Box  
Step 4  
Enter the password of the thin client that is to be shadowed (this is the Security Password of the thin  
client that is to be shadowed), and click OK. The thin client that is to be shadowed/operated/monitored  
is displayed for the administrator in a separate window on the remote machine. Use the mouse and  
keyboard on the remote machine to operate the thin client just as you would if you were operating it  
locally.  
INI Configuration Example for Enabling VNC  
You can use the following example INI file configuration to enable VNC on the thin client:  
Example:  
DisableVnc=no  
VNCAuthTypes=none  
VNCPrompt=no  
This example enables VNC connections on the client, with no password authentication required to access  
the client, and without prompting the user to accept VNC shadowing before the shadowing starts.  
For details about using INI files, see Cisco Virtualization Experience Client 6215 INI Files Reference  
Guide.
