Acer Veriton N2620G - Manual (Page 10)

10 | Getting Started
Management Server Splash Screen
During bootup, if the terminal cannot make contact with a Management
Server, then a black splash screen will appear just prior to the DeTOS
desktop loading. This screen contains the Acer logo and displays a
message saying, Attempting to connect to Management Server. The
splash screen will be displayed until successful contact is made with a
management server, the cancel button is pressed, or the specified
timeout (30 seconds by default) is reached.
The Management section, found under the Control Panel, allows you to
configure the behavior of this splash screen. Configuration options
include:

Setting the terminal to Managed or Unmanaged modes.

Specifying a different management server address

Adjusting the timeout value

Enabling or disabling the splash screen Cancel button
Management Server Indicator
Once you are on the DeTOS Desktop, the Echo Agent running on your
terminal will continue to periodically contact a Management Server
named ws-broker on your local area network. When successful, the
Management Server Indicator box found along the bottom of the
Control Panel will read Managed. Otherwise, the icon will change to a
red circle and the status will say Unmanaged. In this case, verify that
your management server is online and accessible on your LAN. Also be
sure to check your DNS server to verify that an entry for ws-broker exists
and points to the IP address of your management server.
