Configuring the ProCurve Wireless Edge Services zl Module
Management Interfaces
Management Interfaces
To configure and manage the ProCurve Wireless Edge Services zl Module, you can
use one of the following management interfaces:
■ Web browser interface—Accessed through a Web browser, this intuitive inter-
face provides comprehensive information to help you manage and monitor your
company’s wireless services. The menus and online help guide you through
configuration steps.
■ Command line interface (CLI)—Available through a serial, Telnet, or Secure
Shell (SSH) session, the CLI provides a complete set of commands to configure,
manage, and troubleshoot your wireless services.
■ Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) applications—SNMP appli-
cations allow you to manage your company’s wireless services in the context of
other network services. By default, the Wireless Edge Services zl Module
supports SNMP v1, v2, and v3. As a result, you can use SNMP applications such
as ProCurve Manager (PCM) Plus and ProCurve Mobility Manager (PMM) to
manage your wireless services. (For more information about PCM Plus and
PMM, visit the HP ProCurve Web site at www.hp.com/go/procurve.)
Because the Web browser interface simplifies both management and configuration
tasks, this guide focuses on using the Web browser interface.
The Web Browser Interface
To access the Web browser interface for the ProCurve Wireless Edge Services zl
Module, your workstation must be running the Java Virtual Machine (JVM), which
enables the Web browser to run Java applets. If your workstation is not running the
JVM and you attempt to open the module’s Web browser interface, the workstation
will automatically try to access the Internet and download the JVM.
Note For Macintosh OSX users, the OS native keyboard shortcuts, such as “command+C”
and “command+V”, may not function in the Web browser interface if the shortcut is
not recognized by the JVM.
In addition to running JVM, the workstation that is running the Web browser must
be able to reach the Wireless Edge Services zl Module’s IP address.
