    Applicable Switch Models Applicable Switch Models The Access Controller xl Module (J8162A) described in this supplement operates on the HP ProCurve Series 5300xl switches. The 5300xl switch software must be updated to version E.09.21 or later. Applicable Secure Access 700wl Models The Access Control Server 740wl or the Integrated Access Manager 760wl must use software version 4.1.3.93 or later.

  • Page 13: Routing Infrastructure Support

    Using 5300xl Features with the Access Controller xl Module Routing Infrastructure Support The ACM uses IP to communicate with Access Control Server 740wls, Inte­ grated Access Managers 760wls and Access Controller 720wls. The default gateway must be set up correctly if there is a router in the communications path.
  • Page 14 Using 5300xl Features with the Access Controller xl Module The ACM does not support any routing infrastructure attached to a downlink client port. Figure 3 below shows how an ACM can be used to communicate with a lower-level, non-routed network structure through a downlink client port.

    VLAN, which by default is the 5300xl DEFAULT_VLAN. All switch ports that belong to the uplink VLAN are uplink network ports. The uplink VLAN may be changed by creating a new VLAN and assigning the uplink port to it as an untagged member.

    Using 5300xl Features with the Access Controller xl Module Static VLAN Features Supported on Client VLANs Client VLANs are special and they don’t support all of the features of a regular 5300xl static VLAN. Table 2 below outlines the feature limitations of client VLANs.
  • Page 18: General Operating Rules

    ACM is not a bridge. A client VLAN containing the downlink port, <slot-id>DP, is automat­ ically created when the ACM is installed in a 5300xl switch. The VID for this VLAN is the vlan-base (default: 2000). You cannot remove a client VLAN if it is the only remaining VLAN with the downlink port as a member.

    (2001, 2002, 2003, ...). If two Access Controller xl Modules are installed in the 5300xl switch, the vlan-base is the VID of the first client VLAN configured by either ACM. The next client VLAN configured on either ACM uses the next available sequential VID.

    VLAN can be added. Changing the VLAN-Base When the ACM is installed in the 5300xl switch, a VLAN is created for the internal downlink port (<slot-id>DP). By default, this client VLAN is VLAN ID 2000, the vlan-base. You may change this using the following command.
