Module Installation
Caution — Routing Switch 9304M and 9308M
To avoid hardware damage during module installation, be careful to properly line up the edges of the module board with the guides built into the module slot on the chassis.
Getting Started
You can initially access the routing switch in either of the following ways:
■Via Telnet or FTP through port 1 on the management module, using the factory default IP address (209.157.22.254) and subnet mask (255.255.255.0)
■By connecting a terminal device to the serial port on the management module
Note: HP recommends that you use the console cable provided with the routing switch. If you need to use a different cable, please see the "Console Cable" entry under "Accessory Parts List" on the next page.
After you have accessed the routing switch, change the default IP address and subnet mask to correspond to your network’s addressing scheme. For more on assigning an IP address and other topics, see the following:
