If the FTE driver installation package is executed, then the switch configuration files are packaged with
the FTE
driver and are copied to the following location
• C:\Program Files\Honeywell\ FTEDriver \Switch Configuration\HP 2620
• C:\Program Files\Honeywell\ FTEDriver \Switch Configuration\HP 2530
If you have not installed FTE, access the switch configuration files from the Experion PKS Installation
media at
the Media Drive:\FTEDriver\Switch Configuration location.
The following procedure uses the Xmodem file transfer utility of the Tera Term application to transfer the
correct switch configuration file from the installation media to the switch. After downloading the switch
configuration file, write the configuration back to the switch memory.
You must familiarize with the base configuration files and modify them as necessary before loading them.
Uncomment the lines that contain the following commands and update the IP address and other
parameters to
match the network’s configuration.
1. SNTP parameters
2. Default gateway
3. SNMP parameters
4. IP Address and subnet mask for the switch
5. Time NTP Settings
6. For Top Level set spanning-tree priority 1 for yellow and 2 for green.
Tip
If you are not familiar with Xmodem, read Tera Term’s help and try a transfer before initiating the transfer in the
switch. Read steps 1 through 6 in the following procedure before you begin. This process can also be performed
using the Serial File Transfer function of the Switch Configuration Tool.
1. Login to the switch with the Manager account.
2. Initiate the transfer in the switch using the copy command. Type copy xmodem startup-config.
3. Press ENTER. The following message appears.
HP-2620-24# copy xmodem startup-config
Device may be rebooted, do you want to continue [y/n]?
4. Enter y and press ENTER to confirm the reboot.
5. Press ENTER again.
6. Initiate the transfer in Tera Term and choose the appropriate switch configuration file.
a. From the Tera Term menu bar, select File > Transfer > XMODEM > Send....
b. Select and navigate to the Switch Configuration folder: C:\Program Files (x86)\Honeywell\
FTEDriver \SwitchConfigurationFiles\HP 2620
c. Select 1K option.
d. Select the correct switch configuration file for your particular system and click Open.
7. If there is a problem during the transfer, error messages are displayed, fix the problem with the switch
configuration file, retype the copy xmodem startup-config command, and then press ENTER.
8. Initiate the transfer in Tera Term by repeating step 3 to 6.
9. Reboot the switch and login again.
10. Type the show run command to verify the switch configuration or show config command to view the
configuration loaded.

9.10.5 Configuring HP qualified switch interface options
Perform the following procedures to setup the HP switch IP address and subnet mask, default-gateway,
the
SNTP time service, the SNMP and switch access settings. Establishing an IP address allows you to use
Telnet
and FTP sessions to save and restore configuration options.
The following topics describe how to customize the HP switch by configuring the following options to
ensure
proper integration into the Experion system.
Attention
These procedures are only required if the template is not used to set these parameters or changes are required after
initial configuration with the template.

9.10.5.1 Configure the IP address and the subnet mask
Perform the following section to save the IP address and the subnet mask settings.
To configure the IP address and the subnet mask settings
1 Connect the HP switch using the Tera Term application either with Telnet, SSH, or Serial connection.
2 Login with the Manager account.
3 In the command prompt enter the configuration mode: HP-2620-24# config t and press ENTER.
4 Determine the VLAN interface.
5 Perform the following steps to setup the IP address.
a Type Interface vlan <vlan#> and press ENTER, that is, HP-2620-24(config)#interface vlan 101.
b Type the IP address <IP Address> <Subnet Mask> and press ENTER.
IP Address is the address assigned to the switch and the Subnet Mask is the subnet mask for the network
for example, 10.1.4.234 255.255.0.0.
c Type End and press ENTER.
d Type write memory and press ENTER to save the IP address.
9.10.5.2 Configure the default gateway
Perform the following section to configure the default gateway.
To configure the default gateway
1 Connect the HP switch using the Tera Term application either with Telnet, SSH, or Serial connection.
2 Login with the Manager account.
3 In the command prompt enter the configuration mode: HP-2620-24# config t and press ENTER.
4 Perform the following steps to setup the default gateway.
a Type config t and press ENTER.
b Type the IP address ip default-gateway <IP Address> and press ENTER.
IP address is the address assigned to the default gateway or router on the network, that is 10.1.4.1.

c Type End and press ENTER.
d Type write memory and press ENTER to save the default gateway.
9.10.5.3 Configure the time SNTP
SNTP configuration on the HP switch can be performed either using the CLI or the Switch Setup started
at the
CLI. Perform the following procedure to configure the time SNTP.
To configure the time SNTP
1 Connect the HP switch using the Tera Term application either with Telnet, SSH, or Serial connection.
2 Login with the Manager account.
3 In the command prompt enter the configuration mode: HP-2620-24# config t and press ENTER.
4 Type the following commands after the switch prompt to configure the SNTP for the HP switch or add
commands to the template loaded in “Loading the HP qualified switch configuration file” on page 119.
a Type HP-2620-24(config)# timesync sntp and press ENTER.
b Type HP-2620-24(config)# sntp unicast and press ENTER.
c Type HP-2620-24(config)# sntp server priority 1 <SNTP Primary IP Address> and press ENTER.
d Type HP-2620-24(config)# sntp server priority 2 <SNTP Secondary IP Address> and press ENTER.
e Type HP-2620-24(config)# time timezone <Number of minutes from GMT> and press ENTER to
configure the time SNTP.
9.10.5.4 Configure the SNMP parameters
It is important to only allow read access to any SNMP community to ensure only information about the
switch
is passed along the network and the write commands are not allowed through SNMP. The templates
provided by
default restrict the public SNMP community to read only but any community added should also be setup
as read
only. In addition, the standard traps are automatically configured to go to the public community.
To configure the SNMP parameters
1 Connect the HP switch using the Tera Term application either with Telnet, SSH, or Serial connection.
2 Login with the Manager account.
3 In the command prompt enter the configuration mode: HP-2620-24# config t and press ENTER.
4 Type the following command to add a different SNMP Community other than public.HP-2620-24(config)#
snmp-server community "Community String" restricted and press ENTER.
Community String is the string entered in Experion. The string public is already configured and does not
need to be added.
5 Type the following command to configure the Experion servers, where the EMDB resides for the
Experion
cluster setup to monitor the switch.HP-2620-24(config)# snmp-server host <ip address of Server>
community “Community Name”.
Attention
Repeat the command for each server’s IP address to configure more than one server and to monitor alarms for the
HP switch.
6 Type the following command to configure the Contact and Location information for the HP
switch.HP-2620-24(config)# snmp-server contact "Name and Phone Number" location "Switch
Location".
The Name and Phone Number string is the desired company standard contact information and the
Switch
Location is the desired location designation both of these fields that appear in the Switch Detail display
on
the Experion Station.
7 Type end.
