Module Overview
The Services Module, an HP ProCurve zl module, is an x86 platform designed
to integrate network applications within the HP ProCurve switch architecture.
By integrating with HP ProCurve's Services library, these applications can
offer more value than stand-alone appliances. The module provides services
to download, install, and license customers’ own applications through the
network.
The module is managed through an easy to use Command Line Interface (CLI).
The module can be installed in any HP ProCurve zl switch (either the switch
series 5400zl or 8212zl). A maximum of four Services Modules can be installed
in the same chassis. See “Environmental Specifications” on page 1-5.
The Services Module requires switch software version K.13.51 or later to be
installed in the switch.
The following figure shows the front panel of the Services Module.
