Preparations for Software Upgrade
Before upgrading the software in conventional methods, set up a configuration environment.
Installing a Security module in the switch
Install a Security module (LSR1FW2A1) in the 9500 in the way you install an LPU. For more information
about the installation, see HP 9500 Series Routing Switches Installation Guide.
Connecting the console interface to a configuration terminal (usually a PC)
Plug the DB-9 connector of the console cable into the serial interface on the PC and the RJ-45 connector
into the console interface on the Security module.
For the Security module of the 5800 series switch, you need to connect the RJ-45 connector of the console
cable to the console port of the switch, and then execute the oap connect slot slot-number system
system-name command to redirect from the switch side to the Security module.

The following describes how to set HyperTerminal parameters on the PC running Windows XP:
Step1 Select Start > Programs/All Programs > Accessories > Communications > HyperTerminal to establish a
HyperTerminal connection.
Step2 In the Connection Description dialog box, enter a name for the connection and click OK, as shown
