Why and When To Use This Guide

This guide describes how to use the Hewlett-Packard router commands

and features to configure, monitor, and manage local and remote HP

routers through the console interface and through SmartBoot.

Use this guide when you need help with the operations that begin after

the router hardware has been installed and verified according to the

instructions in the installation guide.

Coverage Note This manual addresses the entire range of commands and other soft-

ware features found in Hewlett-Packard routers, including features that

are not found on all router models. Thus, for some routers, such as the

HP Router PR (J2540), certain features described in this manual are not

available in the router. For information on the features available in your

router, refer to the release notes you received with the router or most re-

cent software upgrade.

Audience

This guide is intended for network managers and other technicians who

install and manage routers.

Note The network design and network map should be completed before using

this guide.
