Procurve Switch 5406Zl with MSM765zl WESM

[rohith_haridas]

Hi,

I have got Procurve 5406zl switch with the K.14.54, ROM K.12.20 firmware.

I have recently purchased MSM765zl module to get the WIFI configured.

I am not able to get the module to get registered with the switch, even after restarting the switch.

I get error msg when I enter wireless-services e ( where e is the slot ID )

wireless-services e

e: is not a Wireless Services module.

Can anyone help me on this ?

Regards

Rohith

The 765zl isnt activated like old WESM modules, you use it like an ordinary service module.

"show service e" should give you some info and "service e 1" should put you in the boot rom of the service module.

Hi Fredrik,

I did get what you meant.

But Fredrik, in the manual they have mentioned about Lan, Internet V-lans. Do you know why we should be using it ?

Could you please guide me on how to configure the module so that I could access the MSM via the web console.

Regards

Hi,

The controller have two integrated ports; Internet and LAN, on the 765zl they are connected via 10GbE backplane ports. They'll show up in your switch as e1 and e2.

Have a look at this doc: http://bizsupport2.austin.hp.com/bc/docs/support/SupportManual/c02728169/c02728169.pdf specially page 2-3 and onwards. It probably will get you started!
