NetScaler Console Graphical User Interface (GUI) provides an enriching experience with several key features. These features provide:

Optimized screen space: Users can show or hide the sidebar based on their preference.
Quick access to favorites: Pin frequently used menu items for faster navigation.
Enhanced submenu visibility: Hover over menu items to reveal submenus, offering a clearer view of all available options.
Improved submenu structure: A consistent, three-level submenu system ensures seamless navigation across NetScaler Console, providing a uniform experience throughout.

This page walks you through the features of the NetScaler Console GUI providing an enriching user experience.

Previously, the secondary-level submenu was displayed in a tree structure. NetScaler Console GUI provides a seamless navigation where the secondary menu appears on hover, revealing the submenu. This navigation elevates the viewing experience by displaying all submenu options without the need for scrolling.

Hover and display submenu

The menu hierarchy is streamlined to a maximum of three levels. Submenus that were previously displayed beyond the third level are now positioned at the third level. Navigation is updated for the following:

Infrastructure > Configuration
NetScaler Licensing > Pooled Licensing
Gateway > HDX Insight

Updated submenu labels

The names of some submenus are changed to align with this navigation approach. Screen navigation changes and submenu label updates are:
