To use HP ProCurve Manager to install a Premium License, you first select the 5400zl or 3500yl switch in the PCM navigation tree and right-click it. Then, you select Config Manager > License Software on the pop-up menus. The easy-to-use License Configuration Wizard window will then be displayed so that you can start the license installation process.

Note that before attempting to install a Premium License using HP ProCurve Manager, HP ProCurve Manager must be configured for device access to the 5400zl or 3500yl switch and your “My ProCurve” account (member ID and password) information.
