Administration

The administration utilities, represented by the icons located across the top of the B051-000 web page, are used to configure the B051- 000’s operating environment.

This chapter discusses each of them in turn.

After you have made all your configuration changes, in order for them to take effect, you have to put a check in the Reset on Exit box (see Customization, page 26), and log out. If you don’t have configuration privileges, the administration icons will not be available.
