Downloading New Code
(Series 2300 switches only)
If product enhancements occur for the Series 2300 switches, even though they
are unmanaged devices, it is possible to download new code to the switch
through the Download Port on the front of the switch. The new code would
be available on the HP ProCurve web site,
http://www.hp.com/go/hpprocurve .
N o t e
New code can be downloaded to the Series 2500 switches through several
methods, for product enhancements and new features. Please see the
Manage-
ment and Configuration Guide that came with your Series 2500 switch for
more information.
These procedures assumes that:
■ The Series 2300 switch is connected by a “null modem” serial cable
between the Download Port on the front of the switch and the COM1 or
COM2 port on a PC or workstation, which is operating as a terminal. You
can also use one of the console cables that is supplied with all “managed”
HP ProCurve switches and hubs (devices with Console ports).
■
The new switch code has been copied from the HP ProCurve web site and
is stored on a disk drive in the PC.
■ The terminal emulator you are using includes the Xmodem binary transfer
feature. (For example, in the Windows 3.1 terminal emulator, you would
use the
Send Binary File
option in the
Transfers
dropdown menu.)
To Perform the Download:
1. From the prompt displayed on the terminal, enter the
download
command.
The following message is displayed:
Press ‘Enter’ and start XMODEM on your host . . .
2. Execute the terminal emulator command(s) to begin Xmodem binary
transfer of the file stored on your PC.
The download can take several minutes, depending on the baud rate used
for the transfer.
3. When the download finishes, the switch automatically resets itself and
begins running the new switch code.
4. To confirm that the operating system downloaded correctly, from the
terminal prompt, enter the
show version
command and verify that the new
version is present.
