Implement a Portal

Use these steps to implement the OOTB IT Portal Site.

Complete the following steps to implement the OOTB IT Portal Site:

1. Review the OOTB IT Portal Site. Understand the OOTB Site Items (Dashboards, the Service Catalog, the Discussion Board, the Document Repository) and the OOTB properties (header/footer, menu bar).
2. Configure required Portal settings:
   1. Configure the Portal URL.
   2. Set the default domain in CSM Administrator.
   3. Create Portal login credentials (for a Customer). Typically, this is done as part of the Security setup.
      Note:CSM provides other default settings (example: Anonymous login, password enforcement rules); you can change these, if needed, but it is not required.
