Getting Started With Switch Configuration

Using the Console Setup Screen

N o t e	By default, the switch is configured to acquire an IP address configuration
	from a DHCP or Bootp server. To use DHCP/Bootp instead of the manual
	method described in this chapter, see “DHCP/Bootp Operation” in the
	Management and Configuration Guide, which is on the HP ProCurve Web
	site at www.procurve.com/manuals.

The quickest and easiest way to minimally configure the switch for management and password protection in your network is to use a direct console connection to the switch, start a console session, and access the Switch Setup screen.

1.Using the method described in the preceding section, connect a terminal device to the switch and display the switch console command (CLI) prompt (the default display).

The CLI prompt appears displaying the switch model number:

ProCurve Switch 3500yl-48G#

2.At the prompt, enter the setup command to display the Switch Setup screen. The following illustration shows the Setup screen with the default settings.
