Editable Fields
GUI pages allow you to enter values or select options through a range of field
types. These include:
• text fields, to enter character strings or numbers, especially for fields
where there are few limits on the entries (such as names). See the online
help for valid characters and field length
• select lists, to select one option from a small number of possibilities.
Only valid options are listed. For example, if you are asked to select an
IP interface from a drop-down list, the only interfaces displayed will be
those you have assigned an IP address to
• radio button lists, to choose one of a set of mutually-exclusive options
• checkboxes, to enable or disable features.
Apply Button
An Apply button applies the configuration settings on the page or the section
of the page. The new settings will take effect immediately, but are not
automatically saved. To save the settings after clicking Apply, click the Save
button above the menu.
Cancel Button
A Cancel button closes a popup page without making any changes to the
configuration.
