The Product Documentation CD-ROM shipped with the switch includes a copy of this guide. You can also download a copy from the ProCurve website, http://www.procurve.com. Conventions This guide uses the following conventions for command syntax and displayed information.
Page 23: Command Syntax Statements
ProCurve Switch 2626# ProCurve Switch 2650# ProCurve Switch 6108# To simplify recognition, this guide uses ProCurve to represent command prompts for all models. For example: ProCurve# (You can use the hostname command to change the text in the CLI prompt.)
Page 24: Screen Simulations
Port Identity Examples This guide describes software applicable to both chassis-based and stackable ProCurve switches. Where port identities are needed in an example, this guide uses the chassis-based port identity system, such as “A1”, “B3 - B5”, “C7”, etc. However, unless otherwise noted, such examples apply equally to the stackable switches, which for port identities typically use only numbers, such as “1”, “3-5”, “15”, etc.

Using the Command Line Interface (CLI) Overview Overview The CLI is a text-based command interface for configuring and monitoring the switch. The CLI gives you access to the switch’s full set of commands while providing the same password protection that is used in the web browser interface and the menu interface.

In the above case, you will enter the CLI at the level corresponding to the password you provide (operator or manager). If no passwords are set when you log onto the CLI, you will enter at the Manager level. For example: ProCurve# _...
Page 54: Privilege Level Operation
Using the CLI C a u t i o n ProCurve strongly recommends that you configure a Manager password. If a Manager password is not configured, then the Manager level is not password- protected, and anyone having in-band or out-of-band access to the switch may be able to reach the Manager level and compromise switch and network security.

Time Protocols Overview Overview This chapter describes: ■ SNTP Time Protocol Operation Timep Time Protocol Operation ■ Using time synchronization ensures a uniform time among inter operating devices. This helps you to manage and troubleshoot switch operation by attaching meaningful time data to event and error messages. The switch offers TimeP and SNTP (Simple Network Time Protocol) and a timesync command for changing the time protocol selection (or turning off time protocol operation).

For current information on your switch model, consult the latest Release Notes (available on the ProCurve Networking web site).
Page 278: Lldp Terminology
Active Port: A port linked to another active device (regardless of whether STP is blocking the link). LLDP: Link Layer Discovery Protocol. ProCurve switches are compatible with IEEE 802.1AB-2005. LLDP-Aware: A device that has LLDP in its operating code, regardless of whether LLDP is enabled or disabled.
Page 279: General Lldp Operation
Configuring for Network Management Applications LLDP (Link-Layer Discovery Protocol) General LLDP Operation An LLDP packet contains data about the transmitting switch and port. The switch advertises itself to adjacent (neighbor) devices by transmitting LLDP data packets out all ports on which outbound LLDP is enabled, and reading LLDP advertisements from neighbor devices on ports that are inbound LLDP- enabled.
Page 280 Configuring for Network Management Applications LLDP (Link-Layer Discovery Protocol) Transmit and Receive Mode. With LLDP enabled, the switch periodically transmits an LLDP advertisement (packet) out each active port enabled for outbound LLDP transmissions, and receives LLDP advertisements on each active port enabled to receive LLDP traffic (page 13-39).

Page 283: Lldp Operating Rules
Configuring for Network Management Applications LLDP (Link-Layer Discovery Protocol) LLDP Operating Rules Port Trunking. LLDP manages trunked ports individually. That is, trunked ports are configured individually for LLDP operation, in the same manner as non-trunked ports. Also, LLDP sends separate advertisements on each port in a trunk, and not on a per-trunk basis.
Page 284: Lldp Operation And Commands
Configuring for Network Management Applications LLDP (Link-Layer Discovery Protocol) LLDP Operation and Commands In the default configuration, LLDP is enabled and in both transmit and receive mode on all active ports. The LLDP configuration includes global settings that apply to all active ports on the switch, and per-port settings that affect only the operation of the specified ports.

Page 287 Time-to-Live for advertisements transmitted from the switch is 60 seconds (4 x 15). To reduce the Time-to-Live, you could lower the holdtime-interval to 2, which would result in a Time-to- Live of 30 seconds. ProCurve(config)# lldp holdtime-multiplier 2 13-35...
Page 288 Configuring for Network Management Applications LLDP (Link-Layer Discovery Protocol) Changing the Delay Interval Between Advertisements Generated by Value or Status Changes to the LLDP MIB. The switch uses a delay- interval setting to delay transmitting successive advertisements resulting from these LLDP MIB changes. If a switch is subject to frequent changes to its LLDP MIB, lengthening this interval can reduce the frequency of successive advertisements.
Page 289: Configuring Snmp Notification Support
(Default: 2 seconds; Range: 1 - 10 seconds) For example, the following command changes the reinitialization delay interval to five seconds: ProCurve(config)# setmib lldpreinitdelay.0 -i 5 Configuring SNMP Notification Support You can enable SNMP trap notification of LLDP data changes detected on advertisements received from neighbor devices, and control the interval between successive notifications of data changes on the same neighbor.

The neighbors table in the switch supports as many neighbors as there are ports on the switch. The switch can support multiple neighbors connected through a hub on a given port, but if the switch neighbor maximum is reached, advertisements from additional neighbors on the same or other ports will not be stored in the neighbors table unless some existing neighbors time-out or are removed.
Page 302: Lldp And Cdp Data Management
LLDP packets received from neighbor devices. CDP operation is limited to reading incoming CDP packets from neighbor devices. (ProCurve switches do not generate CDP packets.) LLDP and CDP Neighbor Data With both LLDP and (read-only) CDP enabled on a switch port, the port can read both LLDP and CDP advertisements, and stores the data from both types of advertisements in its neighbor database.
Page 303 LLDP (Link-Layer Discovery Protocol) N o t e Because ProCurve switches do not generate CDP packets, they are not represented in the CDP data collected by any neighbor devices running CDP. A switch with CDP disabled forwards the CDP packets it receives from other devices, but does not store the CDP information from these packets in its own MIB.
Page 304: Cdp Operation And Commands
Configuring for Network Management Applications LLDP (Link-Layer Discovery Protocol) CDP Operation and Commands By default the switches covered by this guide have CDP enabled on each port. This is a read-only capability, meaning that the switch can receive and store information about adjacent CDP devices but does not generate CDP packets.

As described earlier in this chapter you can use a TFTP client on the admin istrator workstation to update software images. This is a plain text mechanism and it connects to a standalone TFTP server or another ProCurve switch acting as a TFTP server to obtain the software image file(s). Using SCP and SFTP allows you to maintain your switches with greater security.
Page 314: How It Works
File Transfers Downloading Switch Software Note SFTP over SSH version 1 (SSH v1) is not supported. A request from either the client or the switch (or both) using SSH v1 generates an error message. The actual text of the error message differs, depending on the client software in use.

As a matter of policy, administrators should not enable the SSHv1-only or the SSHv1-or-v2 advertisement modes. SSHv1 is supported on only some legacy switches (such as the ProCurve Series 2500 switches). To confirm that SSH is enabled type in the command ProCurve(config)# show ip ssh 3. Once you have confirmed that you have enabled an SSH session (with the...
