Quick Install
The ProCurve Network Access Controller 800 appliance is easy to install. It
comes with an accessory kit that includes the brackets for mounting the box
in a standard 19-inch telco rack or in an equipment cabinet, and with rubber
feet that can be attached so the appliance can be securely located on a
horizontal surface. The brackets are designed to allow it to be mounted in a
variety of locations and orientations. This chapter shows how to install the
appliance (also referred to here as ‘the unit’).
Quick Install Summary
Follow these steps to install the ProCurve NAC 800. The rest of this chapter
provides details on these steps.
1. Prepare the installation site (page 2-
5). Ensure the physical envi-
ronment is properly prepared, including having the correct network
cabling ready to connect to the unit and having an appropriate location
for the unit. Please see page 2-3 for some installation precautions.
2. Mount the appliance (page 2-6). The ProCurve NAC 800 appliance
can be mounted in a 19-inch telco rack, in an equipment cabinet, or on a
horizontal surface.
3. Connect power to the appliance (page 2-8). Once the unit is
mounted, plug it into the nearby main power source.
4. Connect the network cables (page 2-9). Using the appropriate
network cables, connect the unit to the network.
5. Connect a console to the appliance (optional—page 2-9). You may
wish to modify the ProCurve NAC 800 configuration, for example, to
configure an IP address so it can be managed using a Web browser, from
an SNMP network management station, or through a Telnet session.
Configuration changes can easily be made by using the included console
cable to connect a PC to the unit’s console port.
6. Perform the initial appliance configuration (page 2-11). Use the
front panel LCD to set the appliance’s IP address and server type.
