Overview of Methods for Creating or Modifying a Configuration

This section describes tools that you can use to access the configuration in any HP Series 200, 400, or 600 router, using either a direct console connection to the router or Telnet access over the network.

The ports on a router must be configured for routing before they can actually perform routing functions. Also, once a routing configuration has been implemented, it may need adjustments to achieve optimum performance. In these cases it is necessary to use the configuration tools to create or modify a configuration.
