Getting Started
Use the following steps to install the equipment and build three example
configurations.
1. Review the equipment list, connect the equipment, verify the ProCurve
5300xl Switch software.
2. Boot up the system.
3. Determine Module IP address.
4. Launch Module’s Web browser interface.
5. Set up Country Code and other wireless network administrative data.
6. Verify Radio Port adoption.
7. Configure the Module. Three example configurations are illustrated.
• Configuration 1 - Normal Mode with one WLAN and three radio ports.
• Configuration 2 - Normal Mode with five WLANs and three radio ports.
• Configuration 3 - Adding redundancy.
Step 1 - Review the equipment list, connect the
equipment, verify the ProCurve 5300xl Switch software.
The following is an example equipment list for building a wireless LAN system
with a wireless services-enabled switch.
■ ProCurve Switch 5308xl (J4819A) or ProCurve Switch 5304xl (J4848 B).
■ ProCurve PoE xl Module (J8161A) or equivalent PoE (802.3af-compliant)
power source.
■ ProCurve Module (J9001A).
■ ProCurve Radio Port 230 (J9006A) or 210 (J9004A).
■ ProCurve xl modules for wired connectivity, for example, ProCurve 10/
100-TX xl module (J4820).
■ PC (for connecting to the console port and an Ethernet port on the
wireless services-enabled Switch 5300xl).
■ Serial port and Ethernet cables.
The system may also have the following equipment:
■ ProCurve Redundant Wireless Services xl Module (J9003A).
■ ProCurve Radio Port 220 (J9005A) with external antennas.
■ ProCurve 2600-PWR or other switch providing PoE (802.3af-compliant)
power.
