(12.05.100-en) Search for Devices in the IGEL UMS Web App

In the Search area of the IGEL Universal Management Suite (UMS) Web App, you can search for devices according to the configured criteria and save your search for later.

You can also create Advanced Searches, that you can use in Jobs and Administrative Tasks in the UMS Console, see Using Advance Searches in Jobs and Administrative Tasks in the UMS Console.
