Using Different Combinations of Management Modules Release Notes for 07.8.04

NOTE: The show flash command will list the new FPGA code versions but the new versions do not take

effect until you reload the software.

Using Different Combinations of Management Modules

This section describes the different combinations of M1, M2, M4, EP, and T-Flow management modules supported

on ProCurve 9304M, ProCurve 9308M, and ProCurve 9315M routing switches.

NOTE: The following types of management modules are mutually exclusive:

- M1 management modules

- M2 or M4 redundant management modules

- EP redundant management modules

- T-Flow redundant management modules

A ProCurve routing switch does not operate if two redundant management modules of different types are installed.

Also, M1 management modules do not operate in a ProCurve 9315M routing switch.

Redundant management means that a device can operate with two management modules installed; one active

(primary) and one standby (secondary). If the active management module becomes unavailable, the standby

management module automatically takes over system operation.

Management modules with redundant management capabilities include the following M2, M4, EP, and T-Flow

modules:

• J4885A ProCurve 9300 EP Mini-GBIC Redundant Management Module (8-port)

• J4879A ProCurve 9300 T-Flow Redundant Management Module (0-port — discontinued)

• J4857A ProCurve 9300 Mini-GBIC Redundant Management Module (8-port, M4 — discontinued)

• J4845A ProCurve 9300 GigLX Redundant Management Module (8-port, M2 — discontinued)

• J4846A ProCurve 9300 GigSX Redundant Management Module (8-port, M2 — discontinued)

• J4847A ProCurve 9300 Redundant Management Module (0-port, M2 — discontinued)

If you are using a Redundant Management module, you can install either one or two such modules in the routing

switch, as shown in Table 6. For more information, see “Using Redundant Management Modules” in the

Installation and Basic Configuration Guide included on the Documentation CD-ROM shipped with your

When you use an M2 and M4 in the same

switch, ProCurve recommends using the

faster M4 as the primary redundant

management module. If the M4 fails, the

system will use the slower M2 module.
