The unmanaged switches shown here do not have management interfaces or manageable configurations. Consequently, there is no need to delete management passwords or restore factory default configuration settings. Sometimes, however, you may need to reboot the switch to clear an error condition. The HP 408 switch does not have a Reset button. You can clear any temporary operational problem by unplugging the switch from its power source and plugging it back in again. This action reboots the switch and executes the self-test. The HP 2124 Switch, HP 2300 Switch Series, and HP ProCurve 2700 Switch Series are equipped with a Reset button. Press this button to:

The HP ProCurve 1800 Switch Series does not have a Reset or Clear button. However, the switches in this series are equipped with a Web browser management interface that can be used to customize the configuration. You may need to reset the configuration to the factory default settings due to problems with the configuration or a forgotten password. Follow these steps: 1. 2. 3. Remove the switchs power adapter from the back of the switch. Remove all cables from the front-panel ports. Connect port 1 to port 2 on the front panel using a network cable. You can use either a straight-through cable or a cross-over cable because the switch ports support auto-MDIX (as described in the Connectors and Cable section later in this module). Reconnect the power adapter to the rear of the switch. Wait at least 40 seconds before disconnecting port 1 from port 2.

The remainder of this appendix focuses on the HP ProCurve 9300m Switch Series. The HP ProCurve Series 9315m switch (J4874A) includes 15 open module slots that can accommodate 28 10-gigabit ports, 232 Gigabit Ethernet ports, 672 auto-sensing 10/100 ports, or a combination of these ports. The 9300m switch requires at least one management module, which has flash memory for storing the switchs software image and its configuration information. The management module also has dynamic memory that holds the tables the switch uses to make forwarding decisions. (All 9300m switches forward IP, IPX, and AppleTalk traffic. IPX is a proprietary protocol used by early versions of Novell NetWare, and AppleTalk is used by Apple networks.) The management module supports IP management and transfer protocols, such as Secure Shell (SSH), Telnet, the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP), HTTP, and Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP). If the management module fails, the 9300m switch will continue to forward traffic, but it cannot add entries to its memory-resident tables. To guard against such a failure, the 9300m switch supports redundant management modules. If the primary management module fails, the redundant management module will continue to provide remote access to the switch and allow it to continually update its tables.

The 9300m switch supports several management modules, and each management module supports a family of port modules for network connectivity. The M1, M2, M4, and T-flow management modules were discontinued some time before the 9300m switch itself was.

Note
The remainder of this appendix focuses on the 9300m Switch Series. EP port modules support twice as many ports as the modules in the M4 family, which is described later in this appendix. The use of EP modules results in the high port density that makes the ProCurve 9300 switch suitable for data center applications and medium-to-large enterprise networks. There are two choices for gigabit port modules, each of which supports 16 ports. One supports mini-GBICs, and the other has RJ-45 ports for Category 5 cable. Each of these modules occupies a single module slot. There are two choices for 10/100 port modules, each of which supports 48 ports. The port module with RJ-45 connectors occupies two slots in the 9300m switch. The port module with RJ-21 connectors occupies a single module slot. Each of the four 50pin Telco ports can be connected to a patch panel that converts the signal into 12 RJ45 ports.

The ProCurve 9300m switch supports redundant management modules with software version 5.0 or above. The ProCurve 9300 GigLX Redundant Management Module combines management capabilities with eight Gigabit-LX ports. Gigabit-LX ports allow connections of up to 5 kilometers with single mode fiber. With multimode fiber, Gigabit-LX ports support distances of up to 550 meters; however, you need to use a conditioning cable when using multimode fiber with Gigabit-LX ports. The ProCurve 9300 GigSX Redundant Management Module combines management capabilities with eight Gigabit-SX ports. With 50 micron multimode fiber, Gigabit-SX ports support connections of up to 500 meters. The ProCurve 9300 Redundant Management Module supports no external connections and is dedicated to management tasks. All of these management modules contain a Central Processing Unit (CPU), 128 MB of RAM, flash memory for storing the software image, and other critical hardware and software components. These modules cannot coexist with the non-redundant management modules shown on the next slide.

The HP ProCurve 9300 Gigabit SX Management Module (8-port) combines management capabilities with eight Gigabit-SX ports. With 62.5 micron multimode fiber, Gigabit-SX ports allow connections of up to 200 meters; 50 micron multimode fiber allows connections up to 500 meters. The HP ProCurve Gigabit 4LX/4SX Management Module (8-port) combines management capabilities with four Gigabit-LX ports and four Gigabit-SX ports. Gigabit-LX ports allow connections of up to 5 kilometers with single-mode fiber. With multimode fiber, the ports support distances of up to 550 meters; however, you must use a conditioning cable when using multimode fiber with Gigabit-LX ports. The HP ProCurve 10/100 Management Module (16-port) supports 16 10/100 ports with RJ-45 connectors that auto-negotiate with attached devices, supporting 10Base-T half/full duplex and 100Base-T half/full duplex. These management modules contain a CPU, 32 MB of RAM, flash memory for storing the software image, and other critical hardware and software components. If the management module fails, the system will not operate fully, and the management module must be replaced. The management modules shown here do not support redundancy; only one of these management modules can be installed in the 9300m switch chassis at one time.

To avoid brief service interruptions on the 9300m switch, disable non-management modules:
HP9300# disable module <slot_number>
For example:

Rev. 10.31
Before you remove a port module from the 9300m switch, you should first disable by entering the following command:
HP9300# disable module <number>
If you remove the module without first disabling it, the 9300m switch reinitializes the other modules in the chassis; this causes a brief interruption in service, after which normal operation resumes. You do not have to disable a management module before removing it.

You can hot-insert modules into empty 9300m switch chassis slots. You can hot-swap modules if you are replacing a module with the same type of module. If you replace a module with a different type of module, you must configure the slot for the module:
HP9300(config)# module <slot_number> <type_of_module>
For example:
HP9300(config)# module 3 24-port-copper-module

You can hot-insert modules into empty chassis slots; modules will be enabled automatically. You can hot-swap modules if you are replacing a module with the same type of module. If you replace a module with a different type of module, you must configure the slot for the module. You must then prepare slots for modules by manually entering the module command.

Active management modules should be failed over to standby module before removal. By default, the system synchronizes:
The flash code and startup-config file automatically The running-config at regular user-configurable intervals
The boot code is not automatically set to synchronize but can be set to at startup or switch failover.
If you upgrade the boot code on the active module and the code contains a problem, you can still use the system by running the older boot code that is on the standby module.

To replace a management module, complete these steps. 1. 2. 3. 4. Manually failover the active management module to the standby module using CLI or Web browser interface. Remove the module to be replaced that is now in standby mode. Insert replacement module, which will become enabled in standby mode; flash code and config files will automatically synchronize. Configure boot code synchronization if required.

The 9315m switch requires a minimum of two J4875A power supplies to power up or reboot. With only two power supplies installed, if it becomes necessary to replace a failed power supply, you must first install and power up the replacement power supply before you remove the failed power supply. Otherwise, the 9315m switch will cease to operate. Also, for true power supply redundancy (N+1) in both the 9315m and the 9308m switches, you must install all four power supplies. Note that the power supply for the 9315m is J4875A and the power supply for the 9304m and 9308m is J4147A. These power supplies are not interchangeable.

Management Users
Management Users
Three levels of users on 9300m switches:
Configure Port
Read-Only, or User EXECA user at this level can view some system information but cannot configure system or port parameters. Configure Port, or Privileged EXECThis user can access the enable context and configure port parameters. This user cannot configure system-wide parameters. Super User, or Config LevelThis user receives unlimited read-write access to the switch configuration. This is the only user who can set switch passwords.
By default, no passwords are configured for these users on the 9300m switch. When configuring management user passwords, you must first set the password for the super user. Then, you can set the passwords for the other users.
Rev. 10.31
A 55
The user EXEC level is the starting point for a console session. A limited set of readonly commands is available at the user EXEC level. To make configuration change, you must enter the privileged EXEC level, which is also known as the enable mode. At factory default settings, the enable mode gives full read-write access to the system and is not protected by a password. You can move from the user EXEC level to the privileged EXEC level and have unlimited read-write access to the system by entering the command enable. The privileged EXEC level supports a powerful command set that allows dynamic configuration changes, manipulation of files in flash memory, and reloading of the operating system. To secure the system, you must establish a password for the privileged EXEC level. If you enter the privileged EXEC level when it is in an unprotected state, the system notifies you that no password has been assigned. If you enter the exit command from the privileged EXEC level, you will be returned to the user EXEC level. To move to the configuration level, enter the configure terminal command. Entering the configuration level causes the prompt to change, as shown in the slide.

Rev. 10.31
Global-level commands affect the entire system. Some examples of global-level configuration commands include the assignment of a host name and system passwords. Support for routing protocols, such as Routing Information Protocol (RIP) and Open Shortest Path First (OSPF), is enabled at the global configuration level, but changes to the operating parameters of the routing protocols are made within a router configuration context. You can give the switch a name by using the hostname command. The name can have embedded spaces if you enclose it in quotation marks.

As mentioned earlier, CLI access does not require a password by default. If you want to configure a password, you must use the CLI. A password cannot be assigned through the Web management interface. To protect the 9300m switch from unauthorized access, you should assign passwords for the management users. The configuration of a privileged EXEC password creates a super user account, which is unlimited in scope. You must enter the global configuration level to create this account and assign a password. You must configure a password for this user before you can configure a password for other users. In addition to protecting the enable mode from unauthorized access, the definition of a super user password removes most of the commands that are available at the user EXEC level at factory default settings, such as show and ping.

The system also supports the creation of a configure port account with capabilities that include all read-only functions and some limited port-level configuration. The read-only and configure port accounts do not exist until the super user creates them by defining passwords for the accounts. The read-only account should be used by system operators or other monitoring personnel who need read-only access to information. This type of user has unlimited access to show commands, including show configuration, but this is not a security risk because the show configuration command does not display the passwords configured for system-defined users. The read-only user can perform connectivity tests and can Telnet to other network devices from the 9300m switch, but cannot make any changes to the switchs configuration. A superset of the read-only account, the configure port account is suitable for use by technicians and other persons who must dynamically configure interface parameters. The configure port user can enable or disable individual ports and change their physical parameters such as speed and duplex settings.

Boot Monitor
Boot Monitor
Boot monitor on the 9300m switch allows you to manually intervene in the boot process. The following commands are available at the boot monitor:
Router_A# reload M2 BI Boot Code Version 07.00.05 Enter b to go to boot monitor BOOT MONITOR> ? reset boot system flash primary boot system flash secondary boot system bootp boot system tftp 1.2.3.4 file name ip address 1.2.3.4 255.255.255.0 ip address 1.2.3.4/24 ip default_gateway 1.2.3.1 ping 1.2.3.4
52 Rev. 10.31
While the 9300m switch is booting, there is a 2-second window during which you can interrupt the boot process by pressing the b key from a terminal with a direct serial connection. This allows you to access the boot monitor. Interrupting the boot process by entering the boot monitor gives you an opportunity to specify the source of the system image. It is most useful in situations where you cannot access the privileged EXEC level. The slide displays examples of the options available at the boot monitor.

If both primary and secondary flash images are corrupted, the system will be unable to boot without intervention. You can recover from this problem by booting from a system image file stored on a TFTP server. The first step is to enter the boot monitor. In this mode, the startup-config has not been loaded and thus the 9300m switch does not have an IP identity. To enable the routing switch to request the system image file from the TFTP server, you must enable IP on the switch by supplying an IP address and subnet mask. If the TFTP server is on another network, use the IP default-gateway command to define the address of the default gateway on the switchs local network. When the 9300m switch boots, it will automatically execute the startup-config, if one exists in flash memory. As soon as possible, you should copy a valid image to the primary and secondary flash areas using the copy tftp flash command.

You can use the boot monitor to recover from a lost super-user password. In this case, you must enter the boot monitor and enter the hidden command no password, followed by a boot system flash primary command. Note that booting without password protection does not remove the passwords from the configuration file; it simply removes the authentication requirement. When the system boots with no password, you can enter the privileged level EXEC simply by entering the enable command at the user level EXEC. You should assign a new super-user password and write the configuration to memory immediately to secure the system and replace the unknown password.

This command sequence instructs the switch to boot with the factory default configuration, rather than the startup-config. The 2-second boot monitor opportunity may be eliminated by enabling the fastboot feature. From the enable mode, enter:
HP9300# fastboot
Note that fastboot may be enabled (fastboot) or disabled (fastboot off) at both the user and privileged EXEC level. The fastboot command does not cause the system to restart; it does determine how quickly the system will boot.
