their place are IEEE standards based LACP aggregated links (as well as statically configured trunks) and
generation of LLDP packets for device discovery.

Caution: Archive Pre-F.05.17 Configuration Files
A configuration file saved while using release F.05.17 or later software is not backward-compatible with earlier
software versions. For this reason, ProCurve recommends that you archive the most recent configuration on
switches using software releases earlier than F.05.17 before you update any switches to software release
F.05.17 or later.
