Introduction
This supplement explains the set up and operation of the Wireless Edge
Services zl Module and the Redundant Wireless Services zl Module as a part
of a zl switch. It describes the switch features and capabilities that provide
the support required for the Module’s operation. Read this supplement for
information on what is required to set up the Module and the switch to provide
IEEE 802.11 wireless services in your network.
The ProCurve Wireless Edge Services zl Module (J9051A) enables a ProCurve
zl switch to operate with ProCurve Radio Ports as a centrally-administered

printers. With the addition of a Wireless Edge Services zl Module, virtually
every wired port in a zl switch is able to support wireless or wired user traffic.
The ProCurve Redundant Wireless Services zl Module (J9052A) provides
failover or high availability options within a wireless LAN system.
