ProCurve Secure Access 700wl Series Management and Configuration Guide 2-7
Using the 700wl Series System
The various pages of the Administrative Interface have many elements in common, as well as elements
specific to certain pages.
All pages have the following elements in common:
• The Header bar—Administrative Interface session information
• The Navigation bar—Navigation and Logout buttons
• Tabs—Main function pages under each Navigation button containing left and main panels
• Left Panel—Instructive page information, page and component links, and data filters
• Main Panel—Input interfaces in the form of tables or sub-tabs, and tables displaying logs or status
Header Bar and Navigation Bar
The Header bar identifies the Access Control Server on which you are running the Administrative
Interface. The Navigation bar shows the top-level set of options provided by the Administrative
Interface based on the type of access the logged-in Administrator is permitted. Figure 2-3 shows the
Header and Navigation bars of a single Access Control Server for an administrator with Super Admin
access.
Figure 2-3. Header and Navigation Bars for a Access Control Server
Information at the right side of the Header bar shows the username of the logged in Administrator, the
IP address of the Access Control Server, and the current date and time.
• If the IP address is labeled simply Access Control Server, this Access Control Server is functioning
as the only Access Control Server in the 700wl Series system. If the system is an Integrated Access
Manager, the label will reflect that.
• If the IP address is labeled Primary Access Control Server, this Access Control Server is currently
functioning as the primary Access Control Server in a redundant configuration. You can perform all
management and configuration functions for your 700wl Series system from this Access Control
Server.
• If the IP address is labeled Secondary Access Control Server, this Access Control Server is
functioning as a secondary Access Control Server in a redundant configuration. In this case, the
Header bar is also labeled with a large “secondary” and only a subset of the Navigation buttons are
available (see Figure 2-4). Limited configuration capabilities are available directly through the
Secondary Access Control Server.
