Main Menu

Fields enclosed in brackets [

] offer you a list of selections from which to choose.

The selections may be toggled by pressing the Spacebar. Each time it is pressed, a
new item appears. When the appropriate choice is displayed, press Enter to select
it.

There are two methods for manipulating fields enclosed in parentheses ( ).
Pressing the Enter key on a field such as (Reset) and (Start Test) immediately
executes the function. Typing input when the field is highlighted, such as the
Subnet Mask field) causes the current entry to be replaced with the new characters.
To edit an existing entry rather than replace it, you need only move the cursor to
the point that needs editing. Characters may then be inserted or deleted. Typed data
is always inserted rather than typed over. If the field is full, at least one character
must be deleted to add another. Many fields of this type may also be toggled by
pressing the Spacebar. Other fields are range checked, where you are not allowed
to exit with an illegal value set.

Main Menu

The terminal interface main menu allows you to choose from five options: Alarms,
Performance, Maintenance, Configuration, and Utilities (Figure 4-2). Each menu
screen allows you to access the local or far end menu screen.
