If you are using asp.net roles provider and asp.net menu control, you can use the web.sitemap file to control the menu links display based on roles as below.

<siteMapNode url="/Test/Default.aspx" roles="Admin" title="Test" description="">

Otherwise you can use a loginview control to display different links based on roles as below.

<asp:LoginView runat="server">
    <AnonymousTemplate>
       Menu Link1
    </AnonymousTemplate>
    <RoleGroups>
        <asp:RoleGroup Roles="Admin">
            <ContentTemplate>
                Menu Link2
            </ContentTemplate>
        </asp:RoleGroup>
    </RoleGroups>
</asp:LoginView>

If you are not using role providers and say store that information in the session or somewhere, you can use something similar in the aspx file.

<% if (Session["admin"].ToString() == "Admin") { %>
  Link1
<% } else { %>
  Link2
<%} %>

You can get the current roles for the logged in user as

string[] roleNames = Roles.GetRolesForUser();
