The rest of this section describes these options in more detail and explains
how to configure them from the command line interface (CLI). If you want to
configure the E1 or T1 connection from the Web browser interface, see
Chapter 14: Using the Web Browser Interface for Basic Configuration Tasks.
E1 or T1 Interface Configuration Mode Context
To begin configuring the E1 or T1 interface that will provide the WAN connec-
tion, you must access the appropriate configuration mode context. In the
ProCurve Secure Router CLI, move to the global configuration mode context
and enter:
Syntax: interface <interface> <slot>/<port>
Replace <interface> with e1 or t1, depending on the type of connection you
are configuring. On the ProCurve Secure Router, the interface for each phys-
ical port is identified by its slot number and port number.
The possible slot numbers for an E1 or T1 interface are:
1 = dl option module slot 1
2 = dl option module slot 2
3 = dl wide option module slot (ProCurve Secure Router 7203dl only)
The port number you enter depends on the number of ports included in the
E1 or T1 module. For example, two-port E1 modules have two E1 ports plus
one backup port. (For more information about backup ports, see the ProCurve
Secure Router Advanced Management and Configuration Guide, Chapter 3:
Configuring Backup WAN Connections.) If the E1 module is located in slot
1 and you are configuring the interface for port 1, enter:
ProCurve(config)# interface e1 1/1
Likewise, if the T1 module is located in slot 2 and you are configuring the
interface for port 2, enter:
ProCurve(config)# interface t1 2/2
The router prompt should indicate that you have entered the appropriate
interface configuration mode context:
ProCurve(config-t1 2/2)#
