Navigation Tree

Next to the button column on the left side is the navigation pane. Similar to many other Windows products, this navigation pane displays items that you can interact with. Right clicking most items will give you a menu of choices. Clicking a button in the column will control what is shown in the navigation tree.

The right panel displays details about the item selected in the navigation pane. Some times that information being viewed is a report, or monitor or action configuration details.

Command Line Options

Normally the Console is started without any command line parameters, but occasionally a command line option may be useful.

See Command Line Options for details.
