Unpacking, inspecting, and installing the Ethernet hub (optional)

The HAFM appliance and one or more directors connect through an Ethernet hub installed on a
10/100 Mbps LAN segment. One hub port is required to connect the HAFM appliance, and one
hub port is required to connect each director. A combination of up to 48 HP directors or switches
can be configured and managed by a single HAFM appliance, therefore multiple hubs may be
required to provide sufficient port connections. These hubs must be connected in accordance with
the hub manufacturer's specifications. HP recommends using a star or hub-and-spoke topology
when connecting multiple hubs. The HAFM appliance must be connected to the center hub, and
there should never be more than two hubs between the HAFM appliance and any director. Refer to
the hub manufacturer's documentation for more detailed information.
For instructions to unpack and inspect one or more Ethernet hubs, and to install the hubs in a
desktop or rack-mount configuration, refer to the appropriate Ethernet hub documentation.

Using HAFM from a remote location

You can use a standard Web browser to download and install the client HAFM and Director
Element Manager on PCs or workstations that are LAN-attached to the HAFM appliance. Operators
at these platforms can manage and monitor directors or switches controlled by the appliance. A
maximum of 25 concurrent users can log in to the HAFM appliance.
