Menu path: Structure tree > Devices
In the Devices area, you can manage endpoint devices registered on the UMS Server. All devices registered on the UMS Server are shown.
The name of a device shown in the structure tree is used for identification in the UMS and does not need to be identical to the name of the device in the network. The name shown in the structure tree does not need to be unique and can be used a number of times.
The unit ID serves as a unique identifier. With IGEL devices, IGEL zero clients, devices converted with the IGEL UDC/OSC, and devices with the IGEL UMA, the unit ID is set to the MAC address of the device.
You can structure the Devices area by creating directories and, possibly, sub-directories. When doing so, you should bear in mind that each device can only be shown once in the structure tree. You can move a device by dragging and dropping it from one directory to another.
Icons for an IGEL OS Device
The following icons in the structure tree show the status of an IGEL OS device:
When the device is connected via IGEL Cloud Gateway (ICG), a cloud symbol icon 
is added to the device.
| The device is online. Please note that Misc > Settings > Online Check must be activated for indicating the online status. |
| The device is offline. Please note that Misc > Settings > Online Check must be activated for indicating the online status. |
| Changes have not yet been transferred to the device (possible with all statuses). |
To enable the following status displays, the Devices send updates option under UMS Administration > Global Configuration > Device Network Settings > Advanced Device's Status Updates must be enabled (default).
| The device is showing the login screen (if configured). |
| The device is being updated. |
| The UMS has no license for the device. |
| The device has never been registered. |
The UMS monitors the status of the devices by regularly sending UDP packets. In accordance with the preset, this occurs every 3 seconds. You can specify the interval for the online check in the Misc > Settings > Online Check menu. You can also update the status manually.
Icons for a UD Pocket
The following icons in the structure tree show the status of a UD Pocket:
| The registered UD Pocket (no further information is available at the moment). |
| The UD Pocket is online. Please note that Misc > Settings > Online Check must be activated for indicating the online status. |
| The UD Pocket is offline. Please note that Misc > Settings > Online Check must be activated for indicating the online status. |
| The UD Pocket is showing the login screen (if configured). |
| The UD Pocket is being updated. |
| The UD Pocket is not licensed. |
