HP ProCurve Routing Switch 9308M / 9304M Reviewer’s Guide

On-site upgrades to either business-day four hour support or 24X7 four hour support can be purchased

through HP.

Other fee-based services available that are highly recommended are hardware support contracts to

cover the routing switches when they are no longer in warranty, and extensions to the basic phone

support to cover network troubleshooting either during regular business hours or 24X7.

Hewlett-Packard can also provide site surveys, installation services, and actual management of the

network, depending on customer needs.

More information can be found at http://www.hp.com/rnd/support/support.htm or by contacting the

local HP sales office.

2.10 Network Management

Network management is an important part of a network solution. There are three levels of net

management available for the HP ProCurve Routing Switch 9304M and HP ProCurve Routing

Switch 9308M:

•

Web-based management - Configuration of individual routing switches can be done anytime,

anywhere through the web server available in each routing switch, accessible via a standard

web browser.

•

HP TopTools for Hubs & Switches - Management of a network of HP hubs, switches and routing

switches can be done through the included HP TopTools for Hubs & Switches application, part

of the HP TopTools suite of management products. HP TopTools for Hubs & Switches provides

a network map and device configuration in an web-based format for the routing switches.

HP TopTools for Hubs & Switches can manage up to 1500 nodes as shipped. The extra-cost

HP TopTools Value Pak can be added that increases the number of monitored nodes to 5000.

•

HP OpenView platforms - If management of a generic IP network is needed (i.e. management of

HP and other vendors’ devices):

NT platform - bridge software to HP OpenView/NT is available so that TopTools can run

under HP OpenView/NT. For more details see the TopTools web site at

http://www.hp.com/toptools.

UX platform - Management of the HP ProCurve Routing Switch 9304M and 9308M under

HP OpenView/UX is available via the separately purchased J3250M HP Hub & Switch

Management For HP OpenView-UX product.

TopTools will also run under Tivoli Enterprise and Tivoli NetView, as well as Unicenter TNG using the

proper bridges to these environments. See the TopTools web site at

http://www.hp.com/toptools for

more details.

SNMP version 2 is supported.

HP has made every effort to ensure the accuracy of our product testing. However, because each customer's environment is

different from HP's laboratory test environment, it is the customer's responsibility to validate the Year 2000 readiness of

these products in their own environment. Therefore, information about the Year 2000 status of HP products is provided

"as is" without warranties of any kind and is subject to change without notice. HP makes no representation or warranty

respecting the accuracy or reliability of information about non-HP products. Such information, if any, was provided by

the manufacturers of those products and customers are urged to contact the manufacturer directly to verify Year 2000

readiness. The information provided here constitutes a Year 2000 Readiness Disclosure for purposes of the Year 2000

Information and Readiness Disclosure Act.
