Figure 6-13:Web Manager Access>Terminal Profile Menu Screen
On the screen shown in Figure 6-13, an administrative user can define a
terminal command menu to appear when a user turns on a dumb terminal that
is connected to one of the serial ports and that is configured as a local
terminal. A dumb terminal configured as a local terminal launches a session
directly on the OnSite with access to all the Linux commands on the OnSite
unless you configure a menu here. The Figure 6-13 shows an empty menu.
The menu can contain any command recognized by the Linux operating
system on the OnSite. The most common use of this feature is to create
multiple menu options for launching SSH sessions on remote hosts.
When you click “Add,” the “Add Option” dialog box appears, as shown in the
following screen example.
