The Navigational Path

The Navigational Path appears at the top of the WebPortal's Domain View, the Host View, the Module Objects View and the Module Properties View. A sample Navigational Path is shown below.

Figure 4 - The Navigational Path

The Navigational Path serves two functions. The first is to indicate the location of the current view in detail. The second is to provide quick navigation links to each level above the current view in the managed object hierarchy.

Each entry in the Navigational Path shown in Figure 4 is described in the table below:

Path Entry Description
Home:
Clicking on this entry will navigate to the Home Domain. If the Home Domain has not been set, it will navigate to the server's Default Domain.
Domain:
Clicking on this entry will navigate to the root of the current view's domain. This entry will not appear if the current view was loaded using the Navigation Bar's Go to Form.
Group:
This entry will only appear if the current view was navigated to through a topology group. Clicking this entry will navigate to the root of the current topology group. Note that nested groups will not appear in the path - only one group will be shown.
Host:
If the current view is located within a host, this entry will appear. Clicking this entry will navigate to the Host Module Summary of the currently viewed host.
Module:
If the current view is located within a module, this entry will appear. Clicking this entry will navigate to the root of the currently viewed module.
Module Folders:
One or more of these entries will appear if the current view is within a module folder. Clicking these entries will navigate to the root of the selected module folder. The last entry in the path indicates the current location and is therefore not a link.
