Overview:

The HP E6200-24G-mGBIC yl Switch is an advanced Layer 3 stackable switch in 1U height. It has 24 mini-GBIC slots and an expansion slot for an optional 4-port 10-GbE module. Designed to be deployed as an aggregator of traffic from the edge to the core of the network, this switch supports a variety of Gigabit mini-GBICs, such as SX, LX, LH, and 1000Base-T. The foundation for this switch is a purpose-built ProVision ASIC that allows the most demanding networking features, such as Quality of Service (QoS) and security, to be implemented in a scalable yet granular fashion. With its high-performance architecture, 10-GbE capability, and programmable ASIC, this switch offers excellent investment protection, flexibility, and scalability.

• Distribution layer
• Layer 2 to 4 and intelligent edge feature set
• High performance
• Low-cost mini-GBIC connectivity
• 10-GbE uplinks

Features and Benefits:

Quality of Service (QoS)

• Advanced classifier-based QoS — classifies traffic using multiple match criteria based on Layer 2, 3, and 4 information; applies QoS policies such as setting priority level and rate limit to selected traffic on a per-port or per-VLAN basis
• Layer 4 prioritization — enables prioritization based on TCP/UDP port numbers
• Traffic prioritization — allows real-time traffic classification into eight priority levels mapped to eight queues
• Bandwidth shaping —
  • Port-based rate limiting — provides per-port ingress-/egress-enforced maximum bandwidth
  • Classifier-based rate limiting — uses access control list (ACL) to enforce maximum bandwidth for ingress traffic on each port
  • Guaranteed minimum — provides per-port, per-queue egress-based guaranteed minimum bandwidth
• Class of service (CoS) — sets the IEEE 802.1p priority tag based on IP address, IP Type of Service (ToS), Layer 3 protocol, TCP/UDP port number, source port, and DiffServ

Management

• Remote intelligent mirroring — mirrors selected ingress/egress traffic based on ACL, port, MAC address, or VLAN to a local or remote HP E8200 zl, E6600, E6200 yl, E5400 zl, or E3500 switch anywhere on the network
• RMON, XRMON, and sFlow — provide advanced monitoring and reporting capabilities for statistics, history, alarms, and events
• IEEE 802.1AB Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) — automated device discovery protocol provides easy mapping by network management applications
• Command authorization — leverages RADIUS to link a custom list of CLI commands to an individual network administrator's login; also provides an audit trail
• Friendly port names — allow assignment of descriptive names to ports
• Dual flash images — provide independent primary and secondary operating system files for backup while upgrading
• Multiple configuration files — can be stored to the flash image
• Uni-Directional Link Detection (UDLD) — monitors cable between two switches and shuts down the ports on both ends if the cable is broken, turning the bi-directional link into uni-directional; this prevents network problems such as loops
• Management simplicity — HP E-Series Switches-common networking features and CLI implementation (common across HP zl and yl switches)

Connectivity

• IPv6 —
  • IPv6 host — enables switches to be managed and deployed at the IPv6 network's edge
  • Dual stack (IPv4/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, preventing traffic flooding
  • IPv6 routing — supports static and OSPFv3 routing protocols
• Jumbo frames — on Gigabit and 10-Gigabit ports, they allow high-performance remote backup and disaster recovery services

Performance

• High-speed/capacity architecture — 105.6 Gbps crossbar switching fabric provides intra- and inter-module switching with 75.7 million pps throughput on the purpose-built Provision ASICs
• Selectable queue configurations — allow you to increase performance by selecting the number of queues and associated memory buffering that best meet the requirements of your network applications

Resiliency and high availability

• Router redundancy — VRRP allows groups of two routers to dynamically back each other up to create highly available routed environments
• 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 60 trunks, each with up to 8 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

Layer 2 switching

• IEEE 802.1ad Q-in-Q — increases the scalability of an Ethernet network by providing a hierarchical structure; connects multiple LANs on high-speed campus or metro network
• HP's switch meshing — dynamically load balances across multiple active redundant links to increase available aggregate bandwidth
• VLAN support and tagging — supports complete IEEE 802.1Q standard and 2048 VLANs simultaneously
• IEEE 802.1v protocol VLANs — isolate select non-IPv4 protocols automatically into their own VLANs
• GARP VLAN Registration Protocol (GVRP) — allows automatic learning and dynamic assignment of VLANs

Layer 3 services

• User Datagram Protocol (UDP) helper function — allows UDP broadcasts to be directed across router interfaces to specific IP unicast or subnet broadcast addresses and prevents server spoofing for UDP services such as DHCP
• Loopback interface address — defines an address in Routing Information Protocol (RIP) and OSPF that can always be reachable, improving diagnostic capability
• Route maps — provide more control during route redistribution; allow filtering and altering of route metrics

Layer 3 routing

• Static IP routing — provides manually configured routing for both IPv4 and IPv6 networks
• Routing Information Protocol (RIP) — provides RIPv1 and RIPv2 routing
• OSPF — provides OSPFv2 for IPv4 routing and OSPFv3 for IPv6 routing

Security

• Switch CPU protection — provides automatic protection against malicious network traffic trying to shut down the switch
• Virus throttling — detects traffic patterns typical of WORM-type viruses and either throttles or entirely prevents the virus from spreading across the routed VLANs without requiring external appliances
• ICMP throttling — defeats ICMP denial-of-service attacks by enabling any switch port to automatically throttle ICMP traffic
• Multiple user authentication methods —
  • IEEE 802.1X users per port — provides authentication of multiple IEEE 802.1X users per port; prevents user "piggybacking" on another user's IEEE 802.1X authentication
  • Web-based authentication — authenticates from Web browser for clients that do not support IEEE 802.1X supplicant; customized remediation can be processed on an external Web server
  • MAC-based authentication — client is authenticated with the RADIUS server based on client's MAC address
  • Concurrent IEEE 802.1X, Web, and MAC authentication schemes per port — switch port will accept up to 32 sessions of IEEE 802.1X, Web, and MAC authentications
• Access control lists (ACLs) — provide filtering based on the IP field, source/destination IP address/subnet, and source/destination TCP/UDP port number on a per-VLAN or per-port basis
• Identity-driven ACL — enables implementation of a highly granular and flexible access security policy and VLAN assignment specific to each authenticated network user
• DHCP protection — blocks DHCP packets from unauthorized DHCP servers, preventing denial-of-service attacks
• STP BPDU port protection — blocks Bridge Protocol Data Units (BPDUs) on ports that do not require BPDUs, preventing forged BPDU attacks
• Dynamic IP lockdown — works with DHCP protection to block traffic from unauthorized hosts, preventing IP source address spoofing
• Dynamic ARP protection — blocks ARP broadcasts from unauthorized hosts, preventing eavesdropping or theft of network data
• Detection of malicious attacks — monitors 10 types of network traffic and sends a warning when an anomaly that potentially can be caused by malicious attacks is detected
• Port security — allows access only to specified MAC addresses, which can be learned or specified by the administrator
• MAC address lockout — prevents particular configured MAC addresses from connecting to the network
• Source-port filtering — allows only specified ports to communicate with each other
• RADIUS/TACACS+ — eases switch management security administration by using a password authentication server
• Secure Shell (SSHv2) — encrypts all transmitted data for secure, remote command-line interface (CLI) access over IP networks
• Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) — encrypts all HTTP traffic, allowing secure access to the browser-based management GUI in the switch
• Secure File Transfer Protocol (FTP) — allows secure file transfer to and from the switch; protects against unwanted file downloads or unauthorized copying of switch configuration file
• Management Interface Wizard — helps ensure that management interfaces such as SNMP, telnet, SSH, SSL, Web, and USB are secured to the desired level
• Secure management access — securely encrypts all access methods (CLI, GUI, or MIB) through SSHv2, SSL, and/or SNMPv3
• Switch management logon security — can require either RADIUS or TACACS+ authentication for secure switch CLI logon
• Security banner — displays customized security policy when users log in to the switch
• USB Secure Autorun (requires HP PCM+) — deploys, diagnoses, and updates switch using a USB flash drive; works with a secure credential to prevent tampering
• STP Root Guard — protects root bridge from malicious attack or configuration mistakes

Convergence

• IP multicast routing — includes PIM Sparse and Dense modes to route IP multicast traffic
• IP multicast snooping (data-driven IGMP) — automatically prevents flooding of IP multicast traffic
• LLDP-MED (Media Endpoint Discovery) — is a standard extension of LLDP that stores values for parameters such as QoS and VLAN to automatically configure network devices such as IP phones
