Software Management Saving Configurations Downloading Software to the Module C a u ti o n The startup-config file generated by the latest software release is compatible with the same file generated by earlier software releases. HP recommends that you backup your current configuration before performing any software update. See the module’s Management and Configuration Guide (5991-8626) for instructions and more information.
Software Management Saving Configurations Saving the Current Configuration as the Start-Up Configuration When you use the CLI to make a configuration change, the module places the change in the running-config file. If you want to preserve the change across reboots, you must save the change to the startup-config file. Otherwise, the next time the module reboots, the change will be lost. To save configuration changes while using the CLI: 1.

Support Notes Release WT.01.03 Configuring Authentication for Web-Users Note Use this section to supplement the information in the chapter “Configuring the ProCurve Wireless Edge Services zl Module” in the Management and Configuration Guide (5991-8626). Instead of (or in addition to) using the local list to authenticate users, you can use a RADIUS server. If the RADIUS server authenticates a user, that user has the rights configured on the RADIUS database.
Support Notes Release WT.01.03 If the server does not send the proper VSAs, the user receives the monitor role (read-only) to the Web browser interface. The module’s internal server does not support VSAs, so you should use the local server only to authenticate users that require read-only access. Note If you do not correctly configure the RADIUS server, you can lock yourself out of the Wireless Edge Services zl Module Web browser interface.
Enhancements Release WT.01.03 Enhancements Unless otherwise noted, each new release includes the enhancements added in all previous releases. WT.01.03 is the first software version for Wireless Edge Services zl Modules. Note The Management and Configuration Guide (5991-8626) provides detailed information on the features in software release WT.01.03. Download this guide for more information. To download this guide, see “Downloading Software and Documentation from the Web” on page 1.
Enhancements Release WT.01.03 Feature Description Secure NTP Configure the module to take its time from an Network Time Protocol (NTP) server, or act as a secure NTP server for other devices. Web-Users accounts Create accounts for Web-Users, allow various levels of access to the module’s Web browser interface. ProCurve Identity Driven Manager (IDM) QoS Supports Quality of Service (QoS) settings created through IDM.
Software Fixes Release WT.01.03 Software Fixes Release WT.01.03 is the first software release for the ProCurve Wireless Edge Services zl Module.
Known Software Issues and Limitations Release WT.01.03 Known Software Issues and Limitations This section identifies issues you may encounter when using a ProCurve Wireless Edge Services zl Module (J9051A) or a ProCurve Redundant Wireless Services zl Module (J9052A). Release WT.01.03 Release WT.01.03 is the first software release for the ProCurve Wireless Edge Services zl Module (J9051A) and the ProCurve Redundant Wireless Services zl Module (J9052A).
Known Software Issues and Limitations Release WT.01.03 ■ Applet (41215) — Since the ability to copy to the running-config has been removed from the web management interface, the system: button should not be displayed on the Management -> System Maintenance - Config File -> Transfer -> browse for location popup window. Workaround: Attempts at transferring to the file provide a meaningful message in the lower left window of the web management interface.
Known Software Issues and Limitations Release WT.01.03 ■ Applet (39807) — There should be an option to generate a Tech-Support file in the web management application, and there is not. Workaround: Generate this file using the CLI command. To do this using TFTP transfer, use the following command syntax. Host_zl_Switch# wireless-services Host_zl_Switch(wireless-services-slot)# support copy tech-support tftp:///
Known Software Issues and Limitations Release WT.01.03 ■ CLI (40893) — The sFlow timeout values that can be configured via the CLI differ from those considered valid by the web management interface. This does not have any significant consequence; values configured in either management context will be honored. ■ CLI (38053) — There is no support for tethereal on the module. Workaround: Use the local or remote mirroring features of the switch to perform packet captures.
Known Software Issues and Limitations Release WT.01.03 ■ Infrastructure (41564) — The Img-File-Ver parameter in the CLI and the corresponding Management -> System Maintenance -> Update Server -> Software version parameter of the web management application are not required values, and they should be. The image file will not be pulled if the version is empty, even if the force-upload parameter is set.
Known Software Issues and Limitations Release WT.01.03 ■ L2-L3 (41737) — Attaching an IP ACL with an allow any ACE to the downlink port stops all the traffic on the downlink, even if there is a MAC extended ACL to explicitly allow ARPs. Workaround: ACLs attached to the downlink port need to explicitly allow the radio port traffic to get through to the module, as shown by a portion of a show run command below.
Known Software Issues and Limitations Release WT.01.03 ■ Security (1000460306) — MAC filter rules are designed to apply to the association process. If a wireless station is already associated, a new “deny” MAC filter configured through Security -> MAC Filter in the web management interface does not take effect until the station re-associates.
Known Software Issues and Limitations Release WT.01.03 ■ Wireless (40983) — Rate limiting is not applied to wireless stations that have roamed or have reconnected to the network if cached PMK is configured. Workaround: Disable PMK caching when vendor specific attributes are required for rate limiting a wireless client (e.g. when using IDM).
