IP Addressing
If you just want to give the switch an IP address so that it can communicate
on your network, or if you are not using VLANs, HP recommends that you use
the Switch Setup screen to quickly configure IP addressing. To do so, do one
of the following:
■ Enter setup at the CLI Manager level prompt.
HPswitch# setup
■ In the Main Menu of the Menu interface, select
8. Run Setup
For more on using the Switch Setup screen, see the Installation and Getting
Started Guide you received with the switch.
To Set Up and Install the Switch in Your Network
Important! Use the Installation and Getting Started Guide shipped with your switch for
the following:
■ Notes, cautions, and warnings related to installing and using the
switch and its related modules
■ Instructions for physically installing the switch in your network
■ Quickly assigning an IP address and subnet mask, set a Manager
password, and (optionally) configure other basic features.
■ Interpreting LED behavior.
