Access the terminal window

1. On the Advanced Settings screen, click Terminal.
   A security warning is displayed.
2. Read the security warning and click Yes.
   The terminal window is launched.

   NOTE:If the system is idle for 5 minutes, the terminal window is hidden. Administrator needs to reauthenticate to view the terminal.

   By default there is no user with sudo privileges in the system. Only after the terminal window is opened, the admin user is enabled with sudo permissions. If the terminal window is closed or if you log in to the device again, the admin user access is disabled.

   The admin password can be determined as per the device compliance status.

   • If the device is compliant, the admin password is same as the System Password that is set from Wyse Management Suite.
   • If the device is non-compliant, the admin password is same as the randomized password that can be generated from Wyse Management Suite. The randomized password is based on the serial number and UUID of the device. For more information about how to generate the System password, see Generate the default System password.
