1 -A thin client can be automatically added to a TCMS through a DNS entry.
2 -The thin client sends a ping request to **"defaulttcms"** or **"defaulttcms.%domain%"** (e.g., *defaulttcms.domain.local*) and then receives the IP address of your TCMS.
3 -To enable this, create a DNS entry on your DNS server with the name **"defaulttcms"** and the IP address of your TCMS.
