of 192.168.1.1 with a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0, enter
ProCurve(config-eth 0/1)# ip address 192.168.1.1 /24

Configuring a Password for Telnet Access

By default, you are required to configure a password for Telnet access. In
addition, you must configure an enable mode password.
1. From the global configuration mode context, enter the following command:
Syntax: line telnet <0–4>
For example, if you want to configure port 0, enter:
ProCurve(config)# line telnet 0
If you want to configure all the Telnet ports, enter:
ProCurve(config)# line telnet 0 4
2. Configure a password for Telnet access:
Syntax: password [md5] <password>
For additional security, use the md5 option to encrypt the password.
For example, if you want to create the password as procurve, enter
ProCurve(config-telnet0)# password md5 procurve
3. Exit to the global configuration mode context and create a password for
the enable mode context.
Syntax: enable password [md5] <password>
