Verifying Device Agent Versions
You can check the agent version on an HP device using one of the following
methods:
■
Use the device's console port interface (a non-network connection).
•
You can connect a terminal or computer directly to the device or
through a modem. Refer to the device's Installation and Reference
Guide
for use of the device's RS-232 console port.
•
For HP devices, you can use an ASCII terminal or computer with
VT 100 terminal emulation.
■
Use an available network application (a network connection).
•
For HP devices, use an existing version of HP TopTools for Hubs &
Switches or other device management utility.
Update the device's software or firmware to the current supported version.
