Redundant Management Module (J8731A)
A ProCurve Switch 8100fl requires at least one primary
management module to operate. You can install a
second management module for redundancy.
The management module maintains persistent images
of all software that runs on the system. The primary
non-volatile storage medium is a Compact Flash card
located on the module. A front-accessible PCMCIA
Flash card provides another method of loading system
images (reserved for future software releases).
Management module components include:
PCMCIA card - flash memory slot. The PCMCIA card
slot holds a PC flash memory card used to upgrade and
store system image software (reserved for future
software releases).
10/100Base-T Data Terminal Equipment (DTE) port.
Use the RJ-45 port on the management module to
manage a ProCurve 8100fl Switch from a management
workstation through an inband Telnet session or
SNMP-based management software. The RJ-45 port
is configured as a media data interface (MDI).

ProCurve 8116fl Redundant Switch Fabric Module
(J8730A)
At least one switch fabric module is required to
process traffic on any installed interface module. A
second switch fabric module can be installed for
redundancy.
The Switch 8108fl uses a half-height module (shown in
picture) the Switch 8116fl uses a full-height module
(not shown). These modules are not interchangeable.
