To find and maintain HP Networking devices, HP recommends using the HP Network Discovery Tool. Note that this tool does not replace or augment full-featured HP Network Management software.
If you are prompted about the HP Web Product Detection application, you must choose the ‘open' option in order to allow HP to identify your products. On the next prompt choose ‘OK' to start product detection. Hewlett Packard Enterprise unifies wired and wireless networking to create superior, high performance campus, branch and data center solutions.
To install the HP Network Discovery Tool follow these steps:

When asked, open the file. In the resulting folder, double-click on the file setup. Accept running the install.
Upon completion, the tool should run automatically. (Note: If .NET is not installed on your system, you may be prompted to install it. Follow the installation instructions.)
