HP / 3COM - Setup the V1910-24G Switch

Problem

I was surprised this week when I went to fit one of these switches, I know HP bought3Com some time ago but when I popped open the HP box I did not expect to see a 3Comswitch.

Anyway, heres a very quick run down on initial setup (assign IP and secure the systempasswords).

Solution

1. On the chassis locate the sticker with the serial number on it, on here it will show youthe IP address that its set to by default, this is an IP in the 169.254.x.x range soproviding you have a laptop/PC set up for DHCP simply connect it to the Switch (any port)and you can open a web browser session to it.

2. Default access is user name admin with a blank password.

3. To change the password, select Users >Modify.

4. Select the admin user and change the password below. Note: You can add additionalusers here as well.

5. To change the management IP address, select Network > VLAN Interface > Modify.

6. Out of the box you will only have one VLAN, change the setting to manual.

7. Set the required IP and Subnet mask > Apply (At this point you will be kicked out of themanagement console, connect the switch to your live network and you will be able toconnect to its new address).
