Configuring IP Addressing
IP Configuration
■ The IP addressing used in the switch should be compatible with your
network. That is, the IP address must be unique and the subnet mask must
be appropriate for your IP network.
■ If you change the IP address through either Telnet access or the web
browser interface, the connection to the switch will be lost. You can
reconnect by either restarting Telnet with the new IP address or entering
the new address as the URL in your web browser.
IP Addressing in a Stacking Environment
If you are installing the switch into an ProCurve stack management environ­
ment, entering an IP address may not be required. See the chapter on stack
management in the
Advanced Traffic Management Guide
.
