Console identity

Use Console Identity to define a string (keyword, name, or phrase) to be displayed in the console banner. This string can be used to distinguish this console from other console instances.

To access this page, click System administration > Console Identity in the console navigation.

The console identity string is rendered differently in the banner and browser title bar.
  • Console identity in the banner
    The console identity string is displayed in the console banner after the greeting to the console user, separated by a dash. For example, if the identity string is set to Jupiter and the user is logged in as consoleadmin, the banner displays the following greeting.

    Welcome consoleadmin - Jupiter

    On the login page, the console identity is displayed without the greeting.

  • Console identity in the browser title bar
    The console identity string is displayed in the title bar after the console brand name, separated by a space. For example, if the identity string is set to Saturn, the title bar displays the following information.

    Integrated Solutions Console Saturn
