Navigating the Menus
Navigating via Terminal or Telnet Sessions Recommended for first-time users
Local console and Telnet sessions use multi-layered text menu systems that are nearly
identical.
▪ To select a menu item, press the letter shown at the beginning of that item. This takes you
to an associated screen where settings may be viewed or changed.
▪ To return to the previous menu (in most cases), press ESCAPE.
In general, the top portion of menu screens show read-only information (with no menu
selection letter). The bottom portion of the screen contains parameters that can be selected
for further information, alteration of values, or to navigate to other submenus.
When you arrive at a screen with user-definable parameter fields:
▪ Press the letter shown at the beginning of the user-definable parameter.
If there is a user-definable value, the field clears to the right of the menu item, and you can
enter the value you wish to use.
In some cases, when you select a parameter, you see a prompt at the bottom of the
screen that says Choose an Option. Press SPACE to step through the available
selections.
▪ Press ENTER to accept the displayed parameter (the one you entered, or the one you
chose by pressing SPACE ). In some cases, several parameters may be changed and
then saved by a single keystroke.
▪ To cancel the parameter change, simply press ESCAPE to restore the previous value.
