IBM COLLABORATIVE PORTAL 2.2.1 User Manual

specific clients and now can be accessed using a single browser access point. Explain that 
employees can use their customized environment with all required applications, from everywhere, 
when they can access the portal.  

The easiest way to do this is to center your navigation on what each user role can see. For each 
one, describe the available features for a normal end user and for a content manager user and 
how they can access and use the portal. 

Several different user IDs are used, one for each role. These users and groups, listed in 

 below, 

should have been created in 

 on page 48.

Use the administrative ID (wpsadmin) if you want to show administrative tasks to your audience. 

Remember, each user must enable instant messaging when they access their mail on the Directory 
Server. At a minimum, do this for Kristen Baker and Vic Sargent for the use case, 

1.  Log onto the portal and navigate to Intranet Jump Start -> Home -> Collaboration. 

2. In 

the 

Sametime Contact List portal window, click Options and then select Change online 

status. 

3. Check 

the 

I am active radio button and click OK. 

4. Click 

Save & Close. 

5.  You should now see the user name turn green indicating that you are active in Sametime. 

To enter the intranet portal, a user should open a browser and type the following URL: 

 

where portal_server_name.com is the hostname of the Portal Server. 

The first page that appears contains general news and information and can be accessed by all non-
authorized users.
