QuickSpecs
Overview
detects and provides power to prestandard PoE devices; see the list of supported devices in the product FAQ at
www.hp.com/networking
High-density port connectivity
provides up to 12 interface module slots and up to 288 wire-speed 10/100/1000 PoE-enabled ports or 96 10-GbE ports per
system
Jumbo frames
on Gigabit Ethernet and 10-Gigabit Ethernet ports, jumbo frames allow high-performance remote backup and disaster-recovery
services
Auto-MDIX
automatically adjusts for straight-through or crossover cables on all 10/100 and 10/100/1000 ports
IPv6
IPv6 host
enables switches to be managed in an IPv6 network
Dual stack (IPv4 and IPv6)
transitions from IPv4 to IPv6, supporting connectivity for both
protocols
MLD snooping
forwards IPv6 multicast traffic to the appropriate interface
IPv6 ACL/QoS
supports ACL and QoS for IPv6 network traffic
IPv6 routing
supports static and OSPFv3 routing protocols
6in4 tunneling
supports encapsulation of IPv6 traffic in IPv4 packets
Performance
High-speed, high-capacity architecture
1 Tbps crossbar switching fabric provides intra-module and inter-module switching with 585.6 million pps throughput on the
purpose-built ProVision ASICs
Selectable queue configurations
allows for increased performance by selecting the number of queues and associated memory buffering that best meet the
requirements of the network applications
Resiliency and high availability
NEW Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP)
allows groups of two routers to dynamically back each other up to create highly available routed environments for IPv4 and IPv6
networks
IEEE 802.1s Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol
provides high link availability in multiple VLAN environments by allowing multiple spanning trees; encompasses IEEE 802.1D
Spanning Tree Protocol and IEEE 802.1w Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol
IEEE 802.3ad Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) and HP
port trunking
support up to 144 trunks, each with up to eight links (ports) per trunk
Distributed trunking
enables loop-free and redundant network topology without using Spanning Tree Protocol; allows a server or switch to connect
to two switches using one logical trunk for redundancy and load sharing
Optional redundant power supply (HP 5400 series)
provides uninterrupted power and allows hot-swapping of the redundant power supplies when installed
