Activating a Product
To activate a product, a license must be applied to the module to bind the
product to the specific Services Module. Once the license has been validated,
the module then boots directly into the product OS.
Follow the steps below to activate the product:
1. Access the Service OS CLI. For a module installed in switch slot ‘C’, enter:
hostswitch# services c 1
2. Obtain the Hardware ID of the module:
hostswitch(services-module-C:HD)# licenses hardware-id activation
3. Point your Web browser to the My ProCurve portal
(https://my.procurve.com).
4. If you are a new user, click the Register Here button and enter the
required information.
5. Log into the My ProCurve portal using your My ProCurve user ID and
password.
6. Under My Software:
a. Select ProCurve Device Software.
b. Enter the Registration ID of the product, then select Next.
c. The Generate License for ProCurve device page displays. Enter
the Hardware ID obtained in Step 2 above, then select Next.
d. Review and accept the License Agreement text.
e. Complete the service information fields.
f. The License Key is generated and a confirmation e-mail is sent to you.
g. Enter the License Key through the module’s Service OS CLI using the
