Navigating in the Portal
The portal's navigation service and related interfaces enable you to control how users navigate in the portal.
Essentially, the navigation service creates a tree of navigation nodes for each user who enters the portal. Each node represents specific content, or a collection of content, that can be viewed by the user. A set of tools - the navigation service, navigation tag library and navigation iViews - enable you to display the navigation tree for the current user and provide the necessary links for navigation.
