Configuring Zero Clients for VM Connections

Overview

Interaction between a KM, zero clients, and VMware components requires setting options on the zero
client to bridge the USB keyboard and mouse to VMs. Set bridging options from the zero client Web
interface before connecting to VMs.

NOTE

Be sure that zero client TERA firmware is version 4.2 when connecting to
VMs. Higher firmware versions can cause mouse-related display issues. See
PC-over-IP System User’s Guide on Support site for information about
identifying the zero client firmware version.
