Defining Packages 
Not just any software can be installed on the device – the software must be compatible with 
the container method. In addition to the software provided on the eLux NG CD, software 
updates are available on the Internet 24 hours a day! These include new client software, base 
OS updates, new drivers, etc. For ease of use, these “packages” are already in eLux NG-
compatible format. 
In addition, you can create your own packages – for example, to install a specific driver – 
using the eLux Builder Kit (EBK). Advanced Linux knowledge is required. More information 
on this product is available at the Web site 

.  

eLux NG offers the following features: 
•  Easy installation Installs on flash cards or hard disks. eLux NG can also be installed on 

CD-ROMs or USB sticks to boot from the peripheral device. 

You can install eLux NG on a device that does not yet have eLux NG installed or has 
another operating system installed by performing a recovery installation. This can be 
done using a recovery CD or the PXE EPROM of the network card. 

•  User-friendly interface The QT GUI has been streamlined to insures a low start time. 

The appearance of the eLux NG desktop is  modern and can be personalized using 
desktop themes. In addition, corporate branding is possible by setting the background 
color or transferring a background image. 

•  Network hardware support Extensive support of all current technologies and additional 

legacy technologies, including Ethernet, gigabit Ethernet, fiber optics, modem, ISDN, USB 
ISDN, DSL and Token Ring. 

•  Wireless LAN support You can connect to an access point using a Cisco Aironet card. 
•  Simple desktop management The first time the device starts, a First Contact Wizard 

appears to help the user through the initial configuration. After that, customizing the 
desktop settings to fulfill the needs of the user is simple for the administrator using the 
easy-to-use “eLux NG starter” (Setup tab). The options are laid out logically and intuitively. 

•  Application management Applications can be easily created using the eLux NG starter 

(Configuration tab). The applications can be set to automatically start at device boot or 
automatically restart when the application is closed. 

•  Easy firmware management The firmware installed on the device can be easily 

managed using the “container method” and the image definition file editor ELIAS NG, 
Windows-based software available to users of eLux NG at no additional charge. 

•  Comprehensive management eLux NG can be 100% managed from a central location, 

again without any Linux know-how, using the management tool Scout Next Generation 
(“Scout Enterprise”). Scout Enterprise offers additional features such as automatic 
software license distribution, license transfer, recovery settings configuration, background 
image transfer, configuration file transfer, help desk and more. 

•  License transfer If the device becomes defect, the eLux NG license is not lost. Note: The 

device must be managed by Scout Enterprise. 

•  Security Support of authentication servers during logon, including LDAP and ADS. This 

provides greater system entry security into networked environments by limiting user 
access to the system. Smart card support for local authentication, user roaming, and Citrix 
ICA logon. SSH and virtual private networks are supported. 

•  User variables In conjunction with an authentication server, user variables allow for 

configuration consolidation, reduce configuration time for the administrator and simplify 
the configuration overall. In addition, special ICA variables are available when you log on 
to MetaFrame server using Program Neighborhood, allowing you to set a unique client 
name in the Citrix MetaFrame session.  

•  Network drives Connect to network drives with SMB or NFS protocol.
