The goals of these guidelines are:
For Switch edu-ID enabled services refer to the Switch edu-ID Design Guidelines
Example:
Example:
The AAI login area may be any size appropriate in the context of the page, provided the logos are not resized.
It's up to the web page author to include other information as deemed appropriate into the AAI login area. Switch provides and maintains a number of multilingual links leading to information pages that may be re-used:
http://www.switch.ch/aai/about/ | About AAI |
http://www.switch.ch/aai/faq/ | FAQ |
http://www.switch.ch/aai/help/ | Help |
http://www.switch.ch/aai/participants/ | Participating Organizations |
http://www.switch.ch/aai/privacy/ | Privacy Policy |
A dual login is required if a resource should be accessed by AAI users as well as non-AAI users (e.g. users from foreign universities or private companies). Accounts of non-AAI users have to be managed by the resource itself.
Example 1a, Dual Login, horizontal alignment with two boxes of the same height:

The login field for non-AAI users typically contains form fields for username and password (see example 1a), or alternatively just the login button leading to another page or another server.

This button can be used instead of an AAI Login field when room is scarce. It may also be appropriate when one can assume the user to be familiar with AAI.
This button can be used instead of an AAI Login field when room is even more scarce. It may also be appropriate when one can assume the user to be familiar with AAI.
If a page contains links to non-AAI resources as well as AAI resources, an AAI Login icon may be placed on the right hand side of a link. This clearly indicates which resources are AAI-protected.
Example:
Journal of Science and Fiction, Vol 324
Organization of Public Knowledge
Professor Genius' Homepage
IoE Research Database
Institute of Example
This should then look like this:
And the resulting messages generated by the Service Provider look like shown in this example:
Although there is no official AAI product logo anymore, it is recommended to use the following image to refer to AAI:
This is the general-purpose AAI logo to be used for presentations or on SWITCHaai related websites. The logo should be an active link to http://www.switch.ch/aai/ on any pages used for information about AAI.
Alternatively, there is a smaller and coloured version of it available:
