Using the Getting Started Assistants

The Getting Started assistants display steps and help on how to complete common tasks. Getting Started is a section in the sidebar that appears when you log in to the system if the Show Getting Started on Startup check box is selected. The Getting Started topics are context sensitive per application. Getting Started displays all the steps in a task. From a step in a task, you can jump that point in the user interface to actually complete it.

To use a Getting Started assistant, follow these steps:

1. In Application Chooser, select an application.
2. Click the Help icon. The sidebar appears.
3. In the sidebar, expand Getting Started.

   A main Getting Started topic link appears in the sidebar.

4. Select the main topic. For example in the Ethernet Activator application, click Provision a Service. A list of required steps appears in the sidebar. Each step contains a task link and a link to the help.
5. To perform a specific step, click that link. You jump to that point in the user interface. The assistant remains visible in the sidebar to aid navigation to subsequent tasks.
6. To access Help for a specific step, click the Help icon next to that step.
