Chapter 7: General Configuration Using Local Management

Navigating Within Local Management Screens

To navigate within a Local Management screen, use the arrow keys of the terminal or the workstation providing terminal emulation services. The Local Management screen cursor responds to the LEFT-ARROW, RIGHT-ARROW, UP-ARROW, and DOWN-ARROW keys. Each time you press an arrow key, the Local Management screen cursor moves to the next available field in the direction of the arrow key.

The Local Management screen cursor only moves to fields which can be selected or used for input. This means that the cursor jumps over display fields and empty lines on the Local Management screen.

The Local Management screen cursor provides wrap-around operation. This means that a cursor located at the edge of a screen, when moved in the direction of that edge, “wraps around” to the outermost selectable item on the opposite side of the screen which is on the same line or column.
