Menu path: Setup > System > Remote management > Legacy 'setup.ini' transfer

You can also set up the thin client by directly transferring the setup.ini configuration file:

  1. In System > Remote Administration, disable the Allow remote management option in order to disable the IGEL remote management service.

  2. Click on Transfer the setup.ini configuration file to load the configuration needed for the thin client directly via DHCP.
    The setup.ini file will then be administered manually without the graphical setup, e.g. of the IGEL UMS.
    Two transfer protocols are available – TFTP and FTP. The corresponding DHCP tags are:

    TFTP (disabled by default)

    ID 66

    Name or IP of the server

    ID 67

    File path on the server The setup.ini file will be searched for in /.

    FTP (enabled by default)

    ID 161

    Name or IP of the server

    ID 162

    File path on the server The setup.ini file will be searched for in /igel/ud/.

    ID 184

    User name

    ID 185

    Password



    It is recommended that you set the Disable when updating option at the same time. This will ensure that the setup.ini and the update data are transferred separately.
