Accessibility features
Accessibility features enable a user with a physical disability, such as restricted mobility or limited vision, to operate software products successfully.
The administrative console is the primary interface for interacting with the product. This console is displayed within a standard Web browser. By using an accessible Web browser, such as Microsoft Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator, administrators are able to:
- Use screen-reader software and a digital speech synthesizer to hear what is displayed on the screen
- Use voice recognition software, such as IBM ViaVoice, to enter data and to navigate the user interface
- Operate features by using the keyboard instead of the mouse
One can configure and administer product features by using standard text editors and scripted or command line interfaces instead of the graphical interfaces provided.
When appropriate, the documentation for specific product features contains additional information about the accessibility of the features.
