Reset HP A5800 Switch to Factory Default Configuration

On the test, I reset the configuration on the HP A5800 Series Switch JC103A.

And so, connect to the device and see what files are in the device’s memory:

dir

By default, the configuration is saved in the file config.cfg, let’s say that it is, so we’ll delete it:

delete config.cfg

We removed the configuration file, now we will reboot the device:

reboot

On the offer to keep the configuration we will refuse and on the next issue agree to the reboot:

This command will reboot the device. Current configuration will be lost, save current configuration? [Y/N]:n
This command will reboot the device. Continue? [Y/N]:y

Done, the switch will start with the default configuration, after which you can begin to configure, for example, as I described in the article – Настройка HP 5800

You can also try to reset the configuration as follows:

reset saved-configuration
reboot

Either through the Boot menu, to open it, when you turn on the device, press Ctrl+D and pressing the number 5, we select in the menu the reset of the configuration:

5. Restore to factory default configuration

Then, press 0 to select the reboot:

0. Reboot

When starting the switch, make sure that the configuration is reset:

display current-configuration
display saved-configuration

Configuring PIM on HP A5800 Switch

First make a copy of the configuration file on the tftp server:

backup startup-configuration to 192.168.1.100

To configure the PIM on the HP A5800 switch, connect to the switch via telnet and enter the following commands:

1) Enable the multicast routing switch and pim-sm in vlan 963 which comes from the provider.

system-view
multicast routing-enable
interface Vlan-interface 963
ip address 172.24.24.158 255.255.255.252
pim sm
quit

2) Turn on pim-sm and igmp in vlan 964 on which IPTV will be broadcast to the local network.

interface Vlan-interface 964
ip address 172.25.25.25 255.255.192.0
pim sm
igmp enable
quit

3) We’ll assign the static ip from which the multicast is broadcast.

pim
static-rp 10.0.200.200
quit

4) Add the route to ip from which the multicast is broadcast.

ip route-static 10.0.200.200 255.255.255.255 Vlan-interface963 172.24.24.157

5) Suppose that we accept multicast on vlan 963 tag.

interface Bridge-Aggregation1
port hybrid vlan 963 tagged

6) We will configure any free port for iptv verification and connect to it a computer for example with a playlist in the VLC player.

interface GigabitEthernet1/0/5
port access vlan 964

To test the health and diagnostics, you can use for example the following commands:

display pim interface
display pim interface verbose
display pim rp-info
display pim bsr-info
display pim neighbor
display pim routing-table
display igmp interface
display pim control-message counters
display pim claimed-route

SNMP OIDs for the HP 5800 Switch

I’ll list some of the OIDs I used:
Determine the OID of the processor load by running the command in Linux:

snmpwalk -v 2c -c сommunity host .1.3.6.1.4.1.25506.2.6.1.1.1.1.6
snmpwalk -v 2c -c сommunity host .1.3.6.1.2.1.47.1.1.1.1.7

As a result of the execution of the first command, a list of OIDs will be displayed, those in which a value greater than 0 means CPU loading. If the switches are stacked, then the OID with a value greater than zero will be greater than one. The second team is looking at the description, ours will be “Board”.

Determine the OID of memory usage:

snmpwalk -v 2c -c сommunity host .1.3.6.1.4.1.25506.2.6.1.1.1.1.8

Determine the OID of the temperature:

snmpwalk -v 2c -c сommunity host .1.3.6.1.4.1.25506.2.6.1.1.1.1.12

OID to view the ARP list:

.1.3.6.1.2.1.3.1.1

We look in what vlan are ip:

.1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.2
