Configuring HP ProCurve Switch

1) To reset a HP ProCurve switch to factory defaults, press and hold the Reset and Clear buttons on the front of the switch simultaneously until the Self Test LED starts blinking, then release the buttons. 2) VLANs, IP addresses, ports, and other settings can be configured through the command line interface by entering commands such as "vlan 1", "ip address", and "interface". 3) Firmware can be updated by copying the new firmware file to the switch's flash memory using TFTP or Xmodem over a serial connection. The switch will then reboot with the new firmware.
