Getting Started

Conventions

This guide uses the following conventions for command syntax and displayed
information.

Command Syntax Statements

Syntax: aaa port-access authenticator < port-list >

[ control < authorized | auto | unauthorized >]

■

Vertical bars ( | ) separate alternative, mutually exclusive elements.

■

Square brackets ( [ ] ) indicate optional elements.

■

Braces ( < > ) enclose required elements.

■

Braces within square brackets ( [ < > ] ) indicate a required element
within an optional choice.

■

Boldface indicates use of a CLI command, part of a CLI command
syntax, or other displayed element in general text. For example:

“Use the

copy tftp command to download the key from a TFTP server.”

■

Italics indicate variables for which you must supply a value when
executing the command. For example, in this command syntax,

< port-

list > indicates that you must provide one or more port numbers:

Syntax: aaa port-access authenticator < port-list >

Command Prompts

In the default configuration, your switch displays one of the following CLI
prompts:

HP ProCurve Switch 4104#

HP ProCurve Switch 4108#

HP ProCurve Switch 2626#

HP ProCurve Switch 2650#

HP ProCurve Switch 6108#

To simplify recognition, this guide uses

HPswitch

to represent command

prompts for all models. For example:

HPswitch#

(You can use the

hostname command to change the text in the CLI prompt.)
