Setting the working mode
The switch can operate in managed mode(the default) or unmanaged mode.
NOTE:
To change the mode, connect to the console port of the switch and execute the following
commands at the CLI:
<HP> system-view
[HP] manage-mode on
/* Managed mode */
[HP] undo manage-mode on
/* Unmanaged mode */
•
When the switch operates in unmanaged mode, you do not need to configure the switch.
•
When the switch operates in managed mode, you can configure the switch at the CLI or the Web
interface. HP recommends that you use the Web interface. For more information about switch
configuration, see the user guide.
