Procurve Switch Basic Commands
Before this article called Procurve Switch Management, we talked about the management console connection for HP Procurve Networking Switches in our article calledProcurve Smart Switch Configuration and we came to the Management Mode section and interrupted the article. In HP Procurve Switches, we will configure some basic network structures both from the“Management Mode” screen and by typing commands in the console environment.
Let’s move on to the configuration process by introducing the buttons and led lights on the front panel of the switch.
