Configuring the Menu

The Manager interface contains a structured navigational menu which provides hierarchical access to all the configuration, monitoring and maintenance pages in the Manager. The organization of your Manager's menu groups and items can be customized by adding and removing menu groups and sub-menu groups, moving menu items from one group to another, editing the names groups and menu items, and restricting user access to items.

To configure the menu:

1. In your Manager, select Administration > Manager > Menu.
2. Click Add to create a new menu group, or click Edit to modify the properties of a selected menu group or item.

For menu groups, only the General tab is available. For a menu item, you can also configure Permissions.

General

To specify general properties for menu groups, enter a name for the menu group and click OK.

To specify general properties for menu items, enter a name for the menu item. To automatically give users access to a menu item, you can enable New User Default Access. If the option is deselected, the administrator will have to manually add permissions for new users to access the selected menu item.

Enabling Permissions

Permissions allow administrators to control user and group access to management objects. For information on enabling permissions, see Understanding Users.

Deleting Menu Items

To delete a menu group or item:

1. Under Administration > Manager > Menu, select the group or item to remove.
2. Click Delete and confirm the deletion.

Moving Menu Groups and Items

To move a menu group or item:

1. Under Administration > Manager > Menu, select the menu group or menu item to relocate.
2. Drag the group or item to a new location in the menu.

The icon on the dragged group or item indicates where it can be dropped in the menu. The menu updates automatically.
