Corporate Identity Customizations in the IGEL UMS

The function was formerly known as Firmware Customizations. It was renamed with the introduction of the function to the UMS Web App with UMS 12.05.100. For more information, see How to Use Corporate Identity Customizations in IGEL UMS Web App .

You can customize the user interface of your IGEL OS devices to suit your corporate design using the Corporate Identity Customization (CIC) function in the IGEL Universal Management Suite (UMS). The configuration takes place in a dedicated wizard; for a minimal configuration, only a name and a file object need to be specified.

The management of CICs is synchronized between the UMS Web App and UMS Console. If you create a CIC either in the UMS Web App or in the UMS Console you can later edit it both in the UMS Web App and UMS Console, except for CICs with multiple use cases. Multi-use CICs are only editable in the UMS Web App.

Menu path: UMS Console > Corporate Identity Customizations

Mode of Action

A CIC can be assigned to a device (both OS 11 and OS 12) or a device directory.

CICs override standard profiles but in turn can be overridden by priority profiles. They are therefore between priority profiles and standard profiles in terms of their priority. Further information regarding the prioritization of profiles can be found under Prioritization of Profiles in the IGEL UMS.

If several use cases of the same type are assigned to a device, e.g. a background image, only the use case with the highest priority will be effective. The priority is determined by how direct or indirect the assignment to the device is: A CIC assigned directly to the device has a higher priority than one which is assigned to the device directory. If both CICs have the same priority, the CIC with the higher ID will be effective.

In order to obtain the ID of a CIC, move the mouse pointer over the relevant object in the structure tree.
