Configuring the WYSE V10L
Now that we have configured the necessary boot options, we need to create a custom configuration file (wnos.ini) containing the remaining parameters for our WYSE V10L. WYSE has a wealth of documentation on their site for creating the parameters for the wnos.ini, but I prefer to use the Configuration Generator, a.k.a. ConfGen provided by Thomas Moellerbernd and the team over at www.technicalhelp.de. ConfGen is a great little tool that has almost every option available for the WYSE V10L in a nice easy to use GUI. We have ConfGen available in our Downloads area as well as a sample wnos.ini.
- If you do not already have a wnos.ini file, download our quick start file from the downloads area or, generate a new file using the ConfGen utility.
- Modify the wnos.ini to suite your environment. In particular, pay close attention to the following directives:
- AddCertificate=rootcert.cer
If you are using a self signed certificate, it’s important that the certificate file name be included here. If you do not provide the self signed certificate, the WYSE V10L will fail to authenticate to your connection broker. If you are not using a self signed certificate, or use a certificate authority, you can comment out this option.
- VDIBroker=https://view.tcpdump.com
If you have not set the DHCP option 188 on your DHCP server, you must provide the URL for your connection broker here. If your connection broker requires https, make sure the URL contains https. Otherwise, you may use http.
Note: If you are using TCX MMR, please see our WYSE TCX MMR and VMware VDI KB for additional details on configurations with TCX MMR support
- Copy your newly created wnos.ini to your FTP server in the following path:
/wyse/wnos/
- If using a self signed certificate, copy it to your FTP server in the following path:
/wyse/wnos/cacerts/
If all has gone well, you are now ready to use your new thin client! Plug it in and turn it on! Once it has booted up, you should see a screen similar to the following:

Log in as an entitled user and enjoy your new thin client virtual desktop!
