====The ARDI Web Interface====

When looking up information or configuring your system, most of your time will be spent in the ARDI Web Interface.

===Sidebar and Content===

Each page is broken into two distinct areas, one dark and one light.

The dark region on the left-hand side of the image above is the [[the_sidebar|sidebar]], which is used to navigate around ARDI. It doesn't change a great deal between pages.

The light region on the right contains the content of your current page and will change depending on what you are currently looking at.

===Using ARDI===

Standard users will spend most of their time in the [[dashboard|dashboard]], which gives you access to the bulk of your asset information, and in the [[diagrams|diagrams]], which show you how your assets are connected.

To discover how to really //use// ARDI, we will guide you through a few common tasks - you'll find them in the next page, [[common web-interface tasks|common web-interface tasks]].
