Customization of the web portal helps to change the settings of the web portal in accordance to the requirements of the customer. These settings are applied on a per-browser basis for all the customers, so these settings will be applied on the current web browser. If there is a change in the web browser or change in the device when the portal is accessed the next time, then it is necessary to reset these options.
This article explains how to Customize Customer's Dashboard Settings on OnPlus Web Portal.
• OnPlus 100
• 7.6.2.038
Step 1. Log in to the Cisco OnPlus Portal, click the desired customer, and choose Dashboard.
Step 2. Move the mouse over Customize. A flyout menu appears which has four sets of settings to customize.
• General Settings - This helps the user to change some general settings like how the view should be and what notices need to be suppressed.
• Topology Settings - This helps the user to set how the topology of the devices should look.

Step 1. Click General Settings at the top of the flyout menu to view its settings. These settings apply both for the Network Topology view and the Device Listing view.
Step 2. Choose the default view from the Default View drop-down list. This represents how the view should be in default. The default view drop-down list has the following options:
• Auto Select — Represents the view depends on how many devices are discovered on the network. This chooses in such a way that for up to 99 devices it will use the Topology view, and for 100 or more devices it will use the Device Listing view.
• Topology — Represents all the devices on the network as topology view without any concern of how many devices are there on the network.
• Device Listing — Represents all the devices on the network as device listing view without any concern of how many devices are there on the network.
