ProCurve Series 2300 and 2500 Switches Installation and Getting Started

2-21
Installing the Series 2300 and 2500 Switches
Using the IP Address for Remote Switch Management (Series 2500 Switches Only)
Installing the Series 2300
and 2500 Switches
Starting a Web Browser Session
Your Series 2500 switch can be managed through a graphical interface that
you can access from any PC or workstation on the network by running your
web browser and typing in the switch’s IP address as the URL. No additional
software installation is required to make this interface available; it is included
in the switch’s onboard software.
A typical web browser interface screen is shown in the next illustration.
For more information on using the web browser interface, please see the
Management and Configuration Guide that came with your Series 2500
switch. An extensive help system is also available for the web browser
interface. To access the help system though, the subnet on which the switch
is installed must have access to the internet, or HP TopTools for Hubs &
Switches needs to be installed on a network management station that is on
the subnet.
