Main Menu

The Main Menu, as shown in Figure 5-4 , is used for
accessing the various VT100 screens.
Figure 5-4 Main Menu
If you are using the management facility for the first
time, we suggest that you:
Set up logons for any other users and assign each
user an appropriate security level. See "Configuring
Local Security" on page 5-15 .
Assign new passwords for the default users. See
"Editing Users" on page 5-18 .
Getting Started
To carry out a particular management task, scroll to
the relevant option and press [Return]. This chapter
describes the screens which perform management
tasks that Quick Config Manager does not.

Logoff

If you have finished using the facility, select the
Logoff option from the bottom of the Main Menu. If
you accessed the facility using a Telnet session or
modem connection, the connection is closed
automatically.

Auto Logout

There is a built-in security timeout on the VT100
interface. If you do not press any keys for three
minutes, the management facility warns you that
the inactivity timer is about to expire. If you do not
press a key within 10 seconds, the timer expires and
the screen is locked (any displayed statistics
continue to be updated, however). When you next
press any key, the display changes to the Auto
Logout screen, which requests that you enter your
password again. If entered correctly, you are returned
to the screen that was previously active. If entered
incorrectly, you are returned to the Logon screen.
