HP (Hewlett-Packard) 2824 Switch User Manual


 
Using the HP Web Browser Interface
Support/Mgmt URLs Feature
Support URL
This is the site that the switch accesses when you click on the Support tab on
the web browser interface. The default URL is:
http://www.hp.com/go/procurve
which is the World Wide Web site for Hewlett-Packard’s networking products.
Click on the
[Support] button on that page and you can get to support informa-
tion regarding your switch, including white papers, operating system (OS)
updates, and more.
You could instead enter the URL for a local site that you use for entering
reports about network performance, or whatever other function you would
like to be able to easily access by clicking on the
[Support] tab.
Help and the Management Server URL
The Management Server URL field specifies the URL the switch uses to find
online Help for the web browser interface.
If you install PCM (HP ProCurve Manager) in your network, the PCM
management station acts as the web browser Help server for the switch
and automatically inserts the necessary URL in this field.)
In the default configuration (and if PCM is not running on your network)
this field is set to the URL for accessing online Help from the HP ProCurve
World Wide Website:
http://www.hp.com/rnd/device_help
Using this option, the Help files are automatically available if your work-
station can access the World Wide Web. In this case, if Online Help fails
to operate, ensure that the above URL appears in the Management Server
URL field shown in figure
