Configuring the Switch
You could instead enter the URL for a local site that you use for entering
reports about network performance, or whatever other function you would
like to be able to access easily by pressing the [Support] tab.
Management Server URL
This is the site for two purposes:
■ the location of online help for the web browser interface
■ the URL of a network management station running HP TopTools for Hubs
& Switches
The default URL is:
http://www.hp.com/rnd/device_help
which is the location on HP’s World Wide Web site of the help files for the web
browser interface. To use this site, you must have a modem link or other access
to the World Wide Web operating when you run the web browser interface.
Then, when you click on the
[?]
button on any of the web browser interface
screens, the context sensitive help for that screen will be retrieved from the
site.
Alternatively, you can enter the IP address or DNS name of a network man-
agement station on your network that is running HP TopTools for Hubs &
Switches. That product also includes the help files for the web browser
interface.
Additionally, HP Top Tools for Hubs & Switches has the capability of perform-
ing network-wide policy management and configuration of your switch. This
field identifies the management station that is performing that function. If HP
TopTools for Hubs & Switches is running on your network and has discovered
your switch as it builds the network topology image, TopTools will automati-
cally overwrite the Management Server URL field with the address or name
of the management station on which it is running.
