Getting Started With Switch Configuration

Configuring the ProCurve Wireless Edge Services zl Module (J9051A)

Configuring VLANs on the zl Switch

In a wireless services-enabled zl switch, the Wireless Edge Services zl Module and the Redundant Wireless Services zl Module use ports on the switch to pass wired and wireless traffic to and from the network. An uplink VLAN, containing the module’s uplink port, communicates with the wired side of the network; downlink radio port VLANs, containing the module’s downlink port, communicate with the wireless side of the network.

See the Wireless Edge Services zl Module Supplement to the ProCurve zl Switch Management and Configuration Guide for detailed information to set up and configure VLANs on the zl switch for module communications. This manual is available at www.procurve.com/manuals.

Determining a Module Configuration Backup Process

The module’s configuration files are stored on the module, not on the zl switch, unlike other zl modules. An external FTP or TFTP server must be used to back up and restore a module’s complete configuration.

The switch does save a small subset of the module’s configuration that allows the switch to locate the full configuration file on the external FTP or TFTP server and to validate it using a checksum. The stored subset of a module’s configuration file appears in a show running-configor show config command as uneditable text.

For more information on configuring and managing configuration files on an external FTP or TFTP server, see the ProCurve Wireless Edge Services zl Modules Management and Configuration Guide, available at www.pro- curve.com/manuals.
