Features and benefits

Quality of service (QoS)
• L4 prioritization
Enables prioritization based on TCP/UDP port numbers
• Traffic prioritization (IEEE 802.1p)
Allows real-time traffic classification into eight priority levels that are mapped to eight queues
• Class of service (CoS)
Sets the IEEE 802.1p priority tag based on the IP address, IP type of service (ToS), L3 protocol,
TCP/UDP port number, source port, and DiffServ
• Rate limiting
Establishes per-port ingress-enforced maximums and per-port, per-queue minimums
Connectivity
• Auto-MDIX
Provides automatic adjustments for straight-through or crossover cables on
all 10/100 and 10/100/1000 ports
• IPv6
– IPv6 host
Allows the switches to be managed and deployed at the edge of an IPv6 network
– Dual stack (IPv4/IPv6)
Provides a transition mechanism from IPv4 to IPv6; and supports connectivity for both
protocols
– MLD snooping
Forwards IPv6 multicast traffic to the appropriate interface; and helps prevent IPv6 multicast
traffic from flooding the network
• IEEE 802.3af power over Ethernet (PoE)
Provides up to 15.4 W per port to IEEE 802.3af-compliant PoE-powered devices such as
IP phones, wireless access points, and security cameras
• IEEE 802.3at PoE+
Provides up to 30 W per port to IEEE 802.3 for PoE-/PoE+-powered devices such as video
IP phones, IEEE 802.11n wireless access points, and advanced pan/tilt/zoom security cameras
• Pre-standard PoE support
Detects and provides power to pre-standard PoE devices (refer to the list of supported devices
in the product FAQs, which can be accessed at hp.com/networking/support)
• Single-IP-address management
Provides single-IP-address management for a virtual stack of up to 16 switches
Resiliency and high availability
• External redundant power supply
Provides high reliability
• IEEE 802.3ad link-aggregation-control protocol (LACP) and HP port trunking
Support up to 24 trunks, each with up to 8 links (ports) per trunk
• Multiple spanning tree protocol (STP) and IEEE 802.1s
Offers high link availability in multiple VLAN environments by allowing multiple spanning
trees; and provides legacy support for IEEE 802.1d and IEEE 802.1w
NEW SmartLink
•
Provides easy-to-configure link redundancy of active and standby links
