You select a menu option by typing the selection number and pressing [Enter].
Displays that contain information and no selections include the prompt:
Press Esc for previous menu
Multi-page displays also prompt you to press "N" for the next page or "P" for the
previous page.
Only the Main menu contains the Exit selection to log out. Selecting Exit returns
you to the title screen with the password prompt. All other menus have a Previous
Menu selection which returns you to the Main menu one screen at a time. You can
also press [Esc] to move back one menu at a time.
The auto logout feature automatically logs you out and returns you to the title
screen if you do not press a key for a specified time (1 - 99 minutes). To set the
autolog timeout, select [1] System Administration from the Main menu, then
select [1] General System Information, then select [6] Set Auto Logout Time.
The PathBuilder S600 menu hierarchy includes several layers of menus. Each
submenu has a name that is the same or similar to the name of the option that
displays it. For example, selecting [2] Configuration Management on the Main
Menu displays a submenu titled Configuration Management, and selecting [4]
Manage System Clock from the System Administration menu displays a submenu
titled System Clock Configuration.
You can then select options on the submenus to display additional submenus or
prompts that allow you to set various parameters. The options that appear on
some submenus vary, depending on what modules you have installed. For
example, the System Clock Configuration menu includes a Set CBR option only if
you have installed a CBR module, a Set DS3 option only if you have installed a DS3
UNI module, a Set IMA option only if you have installed a DS1 UNI or E1 UNI
module, and so on.
