HP Switch CLI Commands

Configuration Commands:

1.Create a VLAN and assign an IP address that will be used as default gateway for computers belonging to this specific VLAN. In Cisco terms, you call it as SVI.

SWITCH(config)# vlan 4 name CLIENTS
SWITCH(vlan-4)# ip address 10.10.10.1 255.255.255.0

2.Assign a switch port to a specific VLAN

SWITCH(config)# vlan 4
SWITCH(vlan-4)# untagged 24

3.Add a description to switch interface

SWITCH(config)# interface 24 name CE-DEPT-PC

4.Enable or disable an interface. In Cisco terms, you perform shut or no shut an interface.

SWITCH# config t
SWITCH(config)# interface 26
SWITCH(eth-26)# disable
SWITCH(eth-26)# enable

5.Create Trunk ports (EtherChannel in Cisco terms)

We create a trunk for ports 5,6,7 and label as Trk1. We also specified to use LACP protocol.

SWITCH(config)# trunk 5-7 Trk1 LACP

When a trunk is created, the switch ports lose their VLAN configuration and added to member of default VLAN. In order to add these trunk ports to a specific VLAN, run following command.

SWITCH(config)# vlan 4 tagged Trk1

6.Establish connectivity between two switches for traffic to flow between same VLANs in both switches. You need to repeat the same configuration on bot the switches.

SWITCH01(config)# vlan 5
