HP Switch zl2 Modules Installation Guide

Installing the Modules

• On = >1 Gbps

• If the port is in AUTO, the spd mode LED will be off.

Default Port Configuration

If the slot in which you installed the module was empty the last time the switch

was either rebooted or reset (or the power to the switch was cycled), then the

module will use preconfigured default parameter values that will work for

most networks.

The default port configurations for connection parameters are:

■ Ports Enabled: Yes

■ Mode:

• 10/100/1000-T v2zl Modules: Auto — The port auto negotiates

speed (10, 100 or 1000 Mbps), communication mode (half or full

duplex), and MDI or MDI-X port operation.

Note If you configure the port to one of the fixed 100 Mbps modes, the port will

then operate only as an MDI-X port.

Gigabit-SX, Gigabit-LX, and Gigabit-LH ports in SFP v2 zl Module: Auto

— The port always operates at 1000 Mbps and full duplex. The setting is Auto

for best link establishment with other devices.

■ Flow Control: Disabled

■ Advanced features — Spanning Tree, Trunking, Meshing, VLANs, IGMP,

LACP, Routing, Class of Service, Security, and so forth: all Disabled

If necessary, configure the port(s) in the module by using the switch console

or the web browser interface. For more information, see the Management and

Configuration Guide for your switch at

www.hp.com/networking/support, and

the online Help provided in the console and web browser interfaces. If the

default port configuration listed above is acceptable for your network, then

skip this process.
