blade ethernet pass-thru

[ilayy]

hi all
we have bought a c3000 enclosure with 2 hp Ethernet pass-thru switches 1GB 16 ports. i am bit new to blades and i have some questions
1) am i able to set a management ip for the pass-thru Ethernet switch? if yes how? cause i have tried from the onboard with no success

2) this switch can be configured? if yes please give me a link

3)to connect to blades servers to each other i have to connect the related ports on the Ethernet switch to 1gb external switch?

thanks expert in advance cause really i need this help as soon as possible
