Configuration Tab

This tab displays the Configuration Button bar which contains buttons that
launch screens for setting or changing some of the switch configuration. The
buttons are:

Device View.

Displays a graphical representation of the front panel of the

device, allowing you enable and disable ports on the device by clicking
on port graphics and an enable or disable port button. This view also lets
you Telnet to the switch console. See the online Help for this view.

Fault Detection.

Controls the alert log sensitivity, and port disabling.

System Information.

Enables you to view and set system information

for a selected device.

IP Configuration.

Lets you view or change the existing value for an IP

address, subnet mask, and the gateway address for the switch. (Note that
changing the IP address from the web browser interface will cause you to
lose the current connection to the switch.)

Port Configuration.

Lets you enable and disable ports in addition to

viewing the security and source address information.

Class of Service.

Lets you configure the switch Class of Service features

to set the priority for traffic from specific devices, protocols, VLANs, or
based on the contents of the IEEE 802.3 Type of Service packet field.

Monitor Port.

Lets you designate a port for monitoring traffic on one or

more other ports or on a VLAN configured on the switch.

Device Features.

Lets you enable or disable Spanning Tree Protocol

(STP), Automatic Broadcast Control (ABC), and IP Multicast (IGMP).

Support/Mgmt URLs.

Specifies the URL of the web site that will be

automatically accessed when you open the Support tab, and the URL for
the source of online Help for the web browser interface (page 3-12). The
Support URL is configured to automatically access HP’s ProCurve
networking products website on the World Wide Web. However, if you
have an internal support structure, you may wish to change the Support
URL to access that structure.
