Refer to the password sheet provided separately for the initial user name and
password combinations for view and edit access.
Navigating Through the Interface
The Equalizer Administration Interface provides two navigation mechanisms, links and
menus.
You can directly access the status information and current parameters of any of the items
in the hierarchical list in the left frame by clicking the name of the item you want to view.
The hierarchical list contains all of the currently configured clusters, servers, geographic
clusters, and sites.
To access Equalizer’s reporting mechanisms, modify the configuration, and view help
information, you use the menus in the main menu bar in the top frame and the local
menus available from the parameters pages.
