router. Check with your system administrator to obtain an IP address that

To Set the Access Point’s Country Code
If you are using the HP ProCurve RSVLC-0501 NA (J8986A) model sold in the
United States, radio channels 1 - 11 are the only options supported under FCC
regulations, and cannot be changed. However, if you are using HP ProCurve
RSVLC-0501 WW (J8987A) model sold in other countries, then you need to set
the country code to indicate the channels permitted for your area. The country
code can only be set using the CLI.
Select the two-character code for your country (refer to the Management and
Configuration Guide for a full list of codes), then enter the country command
followed by your country code; for example, gb for Great Britain.
To Configure Radio Settings
The access point supports up to 16 Service Set IDentifier (SSID) interfaces
per physical radio interface. Most radio parameters apply globally to all
configured SSID interfaces. For each SSID interface, different security
settings, VLAN assignments, and other parameters can be applied.
One SSID interface on each radio interface is set as the primary. The primary
SSID is the only SSID broadcast in the radios beacon frames. Other created
SSID interfaces are set as secondary. Secondary SSIDs are all “hidden,” only
being advertised in probe responses.
Note The radios are disabled if the Country Code is not set. Once the Country Code
is set, the radios are automatically enabled.
