About the Help Window
Enabling Extended Screen Reader Support
By default, labels and descriptions are not included in tab order when you press the Tab key to navigate
a pane. Some screen readers, such as JAWS, only read screen objects that have the focus. You can include
the labels and descriptions in the tab order by enabling extended screen reader support.
To enable extended screen reader support, perform the following steps:
Step 1 In the main ASDM application window, choose Tools > Preferences.
The Preferences dialog box appears.
Step 2 On the General tab, check the Enable screen reader support check box.
Step 3 Click OK.
Step 4 Restart ASDM to activate screen reader support.
Organizational Folder
Some nodes in the navigation tree for the configuration and monitoring screens do not have associated
configuration or monitoring panes. They are used to organize related configuration and monitoring
items. Clicking on these folders displays a list of sub-items in the right-hand pane. You can click the
name of a sub-item to go to that item.
