Software Management Saving Configurations Downloading Software to the Module Caution 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 and Clarifications 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 and Clarifications 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.
Support Notes and Clarifications Release WT.01.13 Clarification: For Layer 3 Adoption, DHCP Server Option 189 Requires Value Type ‘String’ You must properly set up your DHCP server to support Layer 3 adoption of Radio Ports. Refer to your DHCP server documentation for instructions on adding private options and the configurations that your Radio Ports will receive.

Known Software Issues and Limitations Release WT.01.03 Known Software Issues and Limitations This section identifies known issues and limitations that you may encounter when using a ProCurve Wireless Edge Services zl Module (J9051A) or a ProCurve Redundant Wireless Services zl Module (J9052A). For the issues and limitations associated with the most recent general release, see “Release WT.01.10” on page 28. Release WT.01.03 Release WT.01.
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 Host_zl_Switch# wireless-services Host_zl_Switch(wireless-services-slot)# support copy tech-support tftp:/// ■ Applet (41536) — In the web management interface L3 mobility page, changes made to the settings take affect without the user hitting the Apply button. Workaround: Use caution - do not click an option that you do not intend to configure on this screen.
Known Software Issues and Limitations Release WT.01.03 ■ Infrastructure (41648) — The web management interface does not display the management interface IP address for layer 3 mobility when the no layer3-mobility local address command is executed through the CLI. Although the CLI output to the show layer3-mobility global command correctly displays the management VLAN interface as the "local address", the web management interface continues to display the local interface IP address.
Known Software Issues and Limitations Release WT.01.03 ■ Infrastructure (41442) — A socket error may be produced during use of the update server function, though the feature is not affected by the error. ■ Infrastructure (1000459250) — VLAN statistics are not counting properly; both the web management interface and CLI and under reporting inbound and outbound utilization.
■ L2-L3 (40107) — DHCP boot file names are limited to 63 characters in both the CLI and the web management interface. ■ L2-L3 (40163) — The DHCP hostname field is unable to accept non-alphanumeric characters. ■ Redundancy (41949) — A wireless station may show up on multiple modules in a redundancy group after failing over from a module that was removed from the switch. Connectivity and traffic for the wireless station are not affected.
Known Software Issues and Limitations Release WT.01.10 ■ SNMP (41053) — The dynamic DHCP bindings viewed in the web management interface display the expiration time in GMT rather than accurately reflecting the configured time zone offset. Workaround: The expiration time is properly displayed in the output for the CLI command, show ip dhcp binding.
Known Software Issues and Limitations Release WT.01.13 Release WT.01.13 Release WT.01.13 is a special release for WESM zl modules purchased prior to April 1, 2008, in the European Union and selected countries/regions. For more information, see “Release WT.01.13” on page 16. ■ Infrastructure (14207) — The wireless interface counter statistics displayed are incorrect; the tx_retries counter may increment interfaces where a radio port is not attached.
