Installing and Configuring the Edge Switch 2/32

48 Edge Switch 2/32 Installation Guide

Configure Switch Network Information

The Edge Switch 2/32 is delivered with the following default network addresses:

■ MAC address—the media access control (MAC) address is programmed into

FLASH memory on the CTP card at the time of manufacture. The MAC

address is unique for each switch, and should not be changed. The address is

in xx.xx.xx.xx.xx.xx format, where xx is a hexadecimal pair.

Note: References to the CTP in this manual are to the control processor logic contained

on the switch motherboard. If an event occurs that indicates the CTP as faulty,

replacement of the switch assembly is required.

■ IP address—the factory preset default internet protocol (IP) address is

10.1.1.10. The default IP address is also 10.1.1.10.

If Reset Configuration is selected from the Element Manager application,

the switch resets to the default address of 10.1.1.10.

If multiple switches are installed on the same LAN, each switch (and the

HAFM appliance) must have a unique IP address. One switch can use the

factory-set address, but the addresses of the remaining switches must be

changed.

Note: If you have enabled additional port function with the HP Flexport feature since

the switch shipped from the factory, resetting the configuration will return this feature to

the factory default of only 16 ports enabled. You must re-enable the additional ports

using the Configure Feature Key dialog box (see “Configure Feature Key” on

page 91).

WARNING: This operation resets all configuration including any optional

features that have been installed. You will need to re-enter your feature key to

enable all optional features after resetting the configuration parameters.

■ Subnet mask—the default subnet mask is 255.0.0.0. If the switch is installed

on a complex public LAN with one or more routers, the address may require

change.
