Using System Information Function

Menu path: Accessories > System Information

To obtain system information regarding a specific component of your IGEL OS device, proceed as follows:

1. Start the System Information function. The start options are described under System Information.

   

   As of IGEL OS 11.08.290, an administrator password is by default required to open System Information. If necessary, you can change the default value in the IGEL Setup under Accessories > System Information > Password protection.

2. Click on the desired area, e.g. Computer > Operating System.
   The information regarding the desired area will be shown.
   

3. To send the information shown, e.g. to the IGEL Support department, click on the Copy to Clipboard button.
   The information is on your clipboard. With Paste or [Ctrl] + [V], you can paste the information into an e-mail or a web form.

You can use the System Information function to find out the Vendor ID and Product ID of your connected hardware. They are required, for example, if you want to configure Device Rules, see e.g. USB Access Control or Native USB Redirection.
