Using the ProCurve Web Browser Interface
The ProCurve Web browser interface is organized into the following sections:
System
Router/Bridge
Network Monitor
Firewall
VPN
Utilities
The System section of the interface contains general router functions. In this
section, you can:
configure WAN and LAN connections
configure IP services
enable the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) and Domain
Name System (DNS) servers
set the router's hostname and add entries to the DNS host table
configure Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) settings
You can also click Getting Started to display a help menu, or select System
Summary to display information about the router. Click Physical Interfaces
for a list of interfaces (including status and type) on your router.
The Router/Bridge section allows you to configure the router's bridging and
routing functions. You can set a default gateway, configure the IP interfaces,
set up quality of service (QoS) maps and routing protocols, and add entries to
the route table. You can also configure the router to act as a bridge and
participate in a spanning tree.
In the Network Monitor section, you can configure the router to send probe
packets and monitor connections to remote networks or servers. If a probe
fails, a network monitoring track creates a log, removes a route (allowing a
backup route to take effect), or both. The Web browser interface provides a
Wizard to guide you through configuring network monitoring, or you can set
the feature up manually by entering the necessary commands in the CLI.
The firewall wizard can be found in the Firewall section. Click Firewall
Wizard to open the wizard in a new window. The wizard guides you through
establishing policies for controlling access to your network. From the Fire-
wall section, you can also enable specific application-level gateways (ALGs)
and set protocol timeouts.
