Overview

Note Before you install the HP AdvanceStack Switch Ethernet Module into

the Switch 2000, you may want to install an optional HP

802.3-compatible transceiver in the transceiver slot in the module.

(Refer to the instructions you received with the transceiver.)

If a transceiver is installed, it replaces the first 10Base-T port as port 1,

as long as no active network is connected to the built-in RJ-45 port 1. If

the Switch 2000 detects the link beat signal on the built-in RJ-45 port 1, it

automatically selects that connector to use for port 1.

You can install an Ethernet Module into the Switch 2000 in any one of the six

module slots, as follows:

1. Insert the Ethernet Module in a Switch 2000 slot (page 2).

2. Customize the configuration for the module ports (unless the default

port configuration is satisfactory for your network application - see

page 8).

3. Reboot the switch (page 9).

Other, optional procedures include:

Hot-Swapping one module for another; that is, replacing one module

with another without turning off power to the switch (page 10)

Using the hot-swap process to install a transceiver into a module

that has already been installed in the switch (page 12)
