2.2.3 Navigating the Menus

Via Terminal Telnet or SSH Sessions

Recommended for first-time log-in

Local Console Telnet and SSH sessions use multi-layered text menu systems that are nearly identical. To
move further down a menu tree, you type the letter assigned to an item of interest. This takes you to an asso-
ciated screen where settings may be viewed, or changed. In most cases, pressing the
key moves the
ESCAPE
screen back one level in the menu tree.
In general, the top portion of menu screens show read-only information (with no user 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-controllable parameter fields, you select the menu item by pressing
an associated letter on the keyboard. If there is a user definable value, the field will clear to the right of the
menu item and you can type in the value you wish to use. Follow this action by pressing the
key to
ENTER
save the changes. If you make a mistake or change your mind before pressing the
key, simply press
ENTER
to restore the previous value.
ESCAPE
In some cases, when you type a letter to select a parameter, you will see a prompt at the bottom of the screen
that says
. In these screens, press the keyboard's
to step through the available

SPACEBAR
selections. When the desired option appears, press the
key to choose that selection. In some cases,
ENTER
several parameters may be changed and then saved by a single keystroke. The
key can be used to
ESCAPE
cancel the action and restore the previous values.
