Basic Overview of the IGEL UMS Web App

The following article provides general information on the features implemented in the IGEL Universal Management Suite (UMS) Web App.

The UMS Web App can currently be used only in addition to the Java-based UMS Console. Some features are currently available only in the UMS Web App, others – only in the UMS Console; see the feature matrix under Overview of the IGEL UMS.

The range of functions available in the UMS Web App will constantly be expanded.
