Introduction

The Digi CM has several default menus for easy configuration and access by
different users. Depending on access privileges, the menus available are the
Web Interface, Configuration Menu, and Port Access menu. A custom menu
feature for creating menus is also available through the web interface.
The custom menu feature enables system administrators to create menus for
specific users, which provide each with a customized interface to selected
ports.

Making Custom Menus

Before making custom menus, plan the kind of menus and menu items you
want available to your users. A good plan would be to:
1. Add users to the system.
2. Create a menu name with sort and display features.
3. Add menu items and submenus to the new menu.
4. Assign users to the menus.
Adding Users
You cannot assign users to a menu until you have added users to the system.
To add users, do the following:
1. Access the web interface.
2. Choose Users administration under the System Administration heading.
3. Choose Add User and then fill in settings to assign the user.
4. Choose Custom menu for the Shell program.
5. Choose Add to add the user.
6. Continue to add users as needed.
