Initial Setup in Monitor Mode
Initial Setup
• Boot the TMS zl Module to the Product OS so that you can begin
configuring the product. (You can register the IDS/IPS signature
license later.) See “Boot the TMS zl Module to the Product OS” on
page 3-20.
Register the IDS/IPS Signature Subscription
To receive updated IDS/IPS signatures, you can purchase one of the following
subscriptions:
■ HP ProCurve Threat Management Services zl Module with 1-year IDS/IPS
Subscription (J9156A)
■ HP ProCurve Threat Management Services 1-year IDS/IPS Subscription
(J9157A)
■ HP ProCurve Threat Management Services 2-year IDS/IPS Subscription
(J9158A)
■ HP ProCurve Threat Management Services 3-year IDS/IPS Subscription
(J9159A)
To begin using an IDS/IPS signature subscription, you must first register it on
the My ProCurve portal (a process that is outlined below). Unlike the TMS zl
Module activation process, the subscription registration process does not
require you to install a subscription license key.
To register the IDS/IPS signature subscription as part of the initial setup,
complete the following tasks. (Step-by-step instructions for each task are
provided in the sections that follow.)
■ Obtain the subscription registration ID and the TMS-subscription
hardware ID.
For step-by-step instructions, see “Obtain the Necessary IDs” on page
3-16.
■ Enter the subscription registration ID and the TMS-subscription hardware
ID on the My ProCurve portal.
For step-by-step instructions, see “Enter the IDs on the My ProCurve
Portal” on page 3-18.
