Completing Initial System Configuration

You should complete the following steps prior to using the Unified Navigation WorkCenter to configure unified navigation on your systems:

  1. On both the portal system and the content provider system, set the authentication domain to the lowest level domain shared by all sytems—for example, if all systems share the same subdomain, then .us.mycompany.com would be appropriate; otherwise, use .mycompany.com instead.

    See the product documentation for PeopleTools: Portal Technology, “Configuring the Portal Environment,” Configuring Web Profiles, Configuring General Portal Properties.

  2. Stop and restart each web server after making these changes.

  3. On both the portal system and the content provider system, enable the drop-down menu.

    See the product documentation for PeopleTools: Portal Technology, “Administering Portals,” Managing General Settings for Portals.
