Getting Started With Switch Configuration
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
that is on the documentation CD-
ROM that came with your switch.
Using the Switch Setup Screen
The quickest and easiest way to minimally configure the switch for manage
ment 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:
HP Procurve Switch 4104GL#
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.
