Ip Address Convention; Interface Numbering Convention - HP 7102dl - ProCurve Secure Router Configuration Manual

For simplicity, throughout this manual the CLI prompt is shown as:
ProCurve>
You can change the name displayed at the prompt of your router by changing
the router's hostname. For more instructions on changing the router's host-
name and other basic router functions, see the Basic Management and
Configuration Guide, Chapter 1: Overview.

IP Address Convention

You must sometimes enter an IP address or addresses as part of a command.
For example, you might need to assign an IP address to a logical interface on
the ProCurve Secure Router, or you might need to enter an IP address to be
filtered by an ACL.
When you enter IP addresses, you must use one of the following formats:
IP address with subnet mask:
Syntax: ip address 192.168.1.1 255.255.255.0
IP address with Classless Inter-Domain Routing (CIDR) notation (or
prefix length):
Syntax: ip address 192.168.1.1 /24

Interface Numbering Convention

When configuring a WAN connection, you will need to specify the slot and
port of the interface that is providing the connection. The syntax for specifying
an interface is <interface> <slot>/<port>.
Replace <interface> with the name of the interface. For example, for E1
interfaces, you would use e1, and for ADSL interfaces you would use adsl. For
ISDN interfaces, use bri.
Replace <slot> with the slot number in which the module is inserted. The
slots on the router are numbered from left to right. The left narrow slot is slot
1, and the slot to the right is slot 2. If you have a ProCurve Secure Router
7203dl, the wide module is installed in slot 3, the right most slot on the front
of the router.
Finally, replace <port> with the number of the port on the module. Like the
slots, the ports are numbered from left to right. The port number is printed
below each port on the module.
