ProCurve Secure Access 700wl Series Installation and Getting Started Guide

Network Setup
To install an Access Control Server onto a network, you need the information shown in Table 3-1:
Initial Configuration Using the CLI
Note:
If you want your system to receive its IP address via DHCP, and you do not plan to reconfigure
the uplink port, you can simply connect the unit to your network. By default a new unit requests an
address via DHCP. You can then follow the instructions in the section “Initial Configuration Using the
Administrative Console” on page 3-8.
The remainder of this section assumes you plan to assign a static IP address to the unit.
You can connect a serial console to the Access Control Server’s serial console port, and then configure the
Access Control Server’s network settings using the CLI.
You can use the CLI to perform both basic and advanced network configuration on an Access Control
Server. However, it is recommended that management and configuration normally be done through the
browser-based Administrative Console. Therefore, this section includes configuration of only those
parameters necessary to allow the Access Control Server to be recognized and communicate on the
network.
Note:
See Appendix A in the ProCurve Secure Access 700wl Series Management and Configuration
Guide for full documentation of the commands available from the CLI.
Connecting a Serial Console
To use the CLI, you must first connect a null modem serial cable from the serial port male DB-9 connector
on the Access Control Server to a serial console. (Figure 3-1).
