Initial Setup
At this point, you should have planned your deployment, installed your TMS
zl Module in an HP 5400zl or 8400zl Series switch, and made necessary
configurations to this switch. This section teaches you how to access the CLI
for the TMS zl Module Services OS, install licenses, and boot the TMS zl
Module Product OS.
Access the TMS zl Module’s CLI
To begin the initial setup, you must first access the TMS zl Module through
the host switch’s command-line interface (CLI), using one of the following
access methods:
■ Serial session
■ Telnet session
■ Secure Shell (SSH) session
To establish a serial connection with the switch, use the serial cable that was
shipped with the switch to connect a workstation to the switch. Then, run
terminal session software such as Tera Term or HyperTerminal on your
workstation, and set the following parameters for the session:
■ Baud rate = 9600
■ Parity = None
■ Data bits = 8
■ Stop bits = 1
■ Flow control = None
If you are prompted for a password, enter the password for the manager user
on the host switch.
