Getting Started
Conventions
■Braces within square brackets ( [ < > ] ) indicate a required element within an optional choice.
■Boldface indicates use of a CLI command, part of a CLI command syntax, or other displayed element in general text. For example:
“Use the copy tftp command to download the key from a TFTP server.”
■Italics indicate variables for which you must supply a value when executing the command. For example, in this command syntax, < port- list > indicates that you must provide one or more port numbers:
Syntax: aaa
Command Prompts
In the default configuration, your switch displays a CLI prompt similar to:
ProCurve Switch 2510G#
To simplify recognition, this guide uses ProCurve to represent command prompts for all models. For example:
ProCurve#
(You can use the hostname command to change the text in the CLI prompt.)
Screen Simulations
Figures containing simulated screen text and command output look like this:
