In the IGEL Universal Management Suite (UMS), you can create as many directories and sub-directories as you want in order to group the devices together. When you create sub-directories, the devices organized in it form sub-groups of a group.

A device that is unequivocally identified by its MAC address can only be stored in a single directory, i.e. only as a member of a single group.

Alternatively, you can import a directory structure, see Importing a Directory.


To create a directory or sub-directory, proceed as follows:

  1. Select a directory, e.g. Devices.

  2. Select the option New Directory from the context menu of the selected directory
    OR
    Click System > New > New Directory in the main menu bar.


  3. Enter a name for the new directory. (Max. 100 characters)

  4. Click OK.
    The new directory will be displayed directly below the selected directory in the structure tree.

You can now move devices to this new directory.
