IGEL Client 19.1.100

This release includes new features and bug fixes available within deviceTRUST 19.1.100 for IGEL OS.

New IGEL Properties

We have added a new IGEL category of properties, which provide properties specific to the IGEL device. Control of these properties requires the deviceTRUST 19.1 Host.

  • DEVICE_IGEL_STRUCTURETAG - The structure tag of the IGEL device.
  • DEVICE_IGEL_UMS_SERVER - The name and port of the UMS server.
  • DEVICE_IGEL_UMS_CERTIFICATE_SERIALNUMBER - The serial number of the UMS server certificate.
  • DEVICE_IGEL_UMS_CERTIFICATE_SUBJECT - The subject of the UMS server certificate.
  • DEVICE_IGEL_UMS_CERTIFICATE_THUMBPRINT_SHA256 - The SHA256 hash of the UMS server certificate.
  • DEVICE_IGEL_ICG_SERVER - The name and port of the ICG server.
  • DEVICE_IGEL_ICG_CERTIFICATE_SERIALNUMBER - The serial number of the ICG server certificate.
  • DEVICE_IGEL_ICG_CERTIFICATE_SUBJECT - The subject of the ICG server certificate.
  • DEVICE_IGEL_ICG_CERTIFICATE_THUMBPRINT_SHA256 - The SHA256 hash of the ICG server certificate.

New Custom Properties

We have added a new CUSTOM category of properties, which allows custom meta-data of the remote device to be delivered to the virtual session. On IGEL, these properties are determined by the system Environment Variables defined by the IGEL configuration. Control of these properties requires the deviceTRUST 19.1 Host.

  • DEVICE_CUSTOM_X_PATH - The identifying location of the IGEL Environment Variable within the IGEL registry.
  • DEVICE_CUSTOM_X_NAME - The name of the IGEL Environment Variable.
  • DEVICE_CUSTOM_X_VALUE - The value of the IGEL Environment Variable.
  • DEVICE_CUSTOM_COUNT - The number of IGEL Environment Variables.

New Screensaver Properties

The new SCREENSAVER category of properties defines the screensaver configured on the IGEL device.

  • DEVICE_SCREENSAVER_ENABLED - Determines if the screensaver is enabled.
  • DEVICE_SCREENSAVER_SECURE - Determines if a password is required when the screensaver is deactivated.
  • DEVICE_SCREENSAVER_TIMEOUT - Determines the amount of user idle time in seconds before the screensaver is shown.
  • DEVICE_SCREENSAVER_FILENAME - The filename of the screensaver that is shown to the user.

New Remote Controlled Properties

The new REMOTECONTROL category of properties defines whether the IGEL device is being remote controlled using remote shadowing. These properties are real-time. Control of these properties requires the deviceTRUST 19.1 Host.

  • DEVICE_REMOTECONTROL_ACTIVE - Determines if the device is being remote controlled.
  • DEVICE_REMOTECONTROL_PROTOCOL - Determines the protocol used to remote control the device. On an IGEL device, this is set to “VNC” whilst remote shadowing is active.

Additional Hardware Properties

The HARDWARE category of properties have been extended with two additional properties.

  • DEVICE_HARDWARE_SECUREBOOT - Determines if the device was booted using secure boot.
  • DEVICE_HARDWARE_LID - This real-time property determines if the lid of the device is open or closed.

Breaking changes

Whilst every effort is made to minimize breaking changes, sometimes this is unavoidable. It is therefore important to review these changes to determine whether an upgrade to 19.1 could impact your current implementation.

  • All domain properties previously part of the USER category have been moved into their own domain category of properties. Control of these properties requires the deviceTRUST 19.1 Host.
  • The DEVICE_SOFTWARE_VERSION property has been moved to DEVICE_DEVICETRUST_VERSION. Control of this property requires the deviceTRUST 19.1 Host.
  • The DEVICE_HARDWARE_ROLE and DEVICE_OS_TYPE properties have been made consistent with the values provided by deviceTRUST Windows Client.

Bug Fixes:

  • Fixed an issue on multi-monitor displays where all displays were presented as a single, wider display.
  • Fixed an issue performing WHOIS requests for IP addresses belonging to non-RIPE NCC internet registries.
  • Fixed an issue where DEVICE_USER_LOCALADMIN was incorrect.
