Configuring IP Addressing
IP Configuration
Configure Time-To-Live (TTL). Use this command at the Global config
prompt to set the time that a packet outbound from the switch can exist on
the network. The default setting is 64 seconds.
Syntax: ip ttl <number-of-seconds>
HPswitch(config)# ip ttl 60
In the CLI, you can execute this command only from the global configuration
level. The TTL range is 2 - 255 seconds.
Web: Configuring IP Addressing
You can use the web browser interface to access IP addressing only if the
switch already has an IP address that is reachable through your network.
1. Click on the Configuration tab.
2. Click on .
3. If you need further information on using the web browser interface, click
on to access the web-based help available for the Switch 2512/2524.
How IP Addressing Affects Switch Operation
Without an IP address and subnet mask compatible with your network, the
switch can be managed only through a direct terminal device connection to
the Console RS-232 port. You can use direct-connect console access to take
advantage of features that do not depend on IP addressing. However, to realize
the full performance capabilities HP proactive networking offers through the
switch, configure the switch with an IP address and subnet mask compatible
with your network. The following table lists the general features available with
and without a network-compatible IP address configured.
