This section explains how to recognize and use common features of the CLM UI.

The main starting point for users is the default landing page, the System Health dashboard. Once you drill down from this default view, you start navigating in context.

The CLM UI uses breadcrumbs that orient you to your current main menu selection and allow you to navigate easily between different views. For example, you can navigate from Centralized License Manager, Network Pool Keys to a different view by clicking the view selector. This opens a drop-down menu of other CLM views. To return to the default view, click the breadcrumb Centralized License Manager.

Clicking the Nokia logo from any view will take you back to the default view, System Health.

The Centralized Licence Manager banner bar is accessible at the top at of every view and comprises the following elements (left to right):

• Menu

• User menu

• Help button

Menu

The menu provides access to the NSP ADMINISTRATION areas that include System Health, Users and Security, and Centralized License Manager. It is your primary navigation tool within the CLM UI.

To access the menu, click on the top left corner of the Centralized License Manager banner bar.

User menu

The user menu provides access to release information and settings. Users can also change their password or sign out of CLM.

Help button

A button on the right-hand side of the CLM banner bar gives you access to the user documentation. You can read Quick Help topics related to the current view, or click OPEN HELP CENTER at the bottom of the Quick Help menu to open the full Help Center in a new browser tab.

The CLM UI layouts include dashboards and lists.

Dashboards

A dashboard is a summary of a functional area within the CLM. For example, the System Health dashboard provides the status summary of all system elements in the CLM, including Database Synchronization Status and Kubernetes Cluster Status.

You can customize a dashboard to suit your personal requirements by rearranging or re-sizing dashlets using (More), Edit dashboard.

Lists

Lists display information based on which view was selected in the view selector. They share a common layout and may include the following components:

• Columns and column headers

  Column headers group related data in each column. For example, the column header Product groups the product types in Centralized License Manager, Network Functions. You can scroll the list left/right or up/down to see more of the available data, if applicable.

• Rows and row actions

  Rows contain information based on the view selected. You can right-click a row or click (Table row actions) for contextual menus.

• Table settings and actions

  In (Table settings & actions) you can, for example clear filters or manage columns. The selection you make affects the entire list.

• Filters

• Info panel

When needed, the lists are paginated. Use the page controls at the bottom of the screen to navigate between pages.
