iLO 2 browser interface overview

are organized under high-level tabs across the top of the iLO 2 interface. These tabs appear on
the browser interface and include System Status, Remote Console, Virtual Media, Power
Management, and Administration.
Each high-level iLO 2 tab has a menu on the left side of the interface with various options. When
you select a different high-level tab, the menu changes, and displays the options available from
that tab. Each menu option displays a page title, which is a description of the information or settings
available on that page. This page title might not reflect the name that appears on the menu option.
