IP Addressing. If you just want to give the access point an IP address so that
it can communicate on your network, HP recommends that you use the CLI
to quickly configure IP addressing. To do so, do one of the following:
Enter config at the CLI Exec level prompt.
■
HP420#config
Enter interface ethernet at the CLI Configuration level prompt.
■
HP420(config)#interface ethernet
■ Enter the IP address, subnet mask, and gateway at the CLI Interface
Configuration level prompt.
HP420(if-ethernet)#ip address <address>
<subnet_mask> <gateway>
For more on using the CLI, see Chapter 6, "Using the Command Line Interface
(CLI)".
