Lookout Runtime Menu
Commands
This chapter describes Lookout menu bar pull-down commands available
in run mode. Some menu items may be disabled, depending on your
security level.
Every menu command has a predetermined security level associated with
it. Only operators whose security levels are equal to or greater than that of
a particular command can access that menu command. Contact your
Lookout administrator to find out what security level you have.
