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 v5 — 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
• 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 — provides HP E-Series-common networking features and CLI implementation (common across HP E8200 zl, E6600, E6200 yl, E5400 zl, and E3500 switches)
• 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

Connectivity

• IPv6 —
  • IPv6 host — enables switches to be managed and deployed at the IPv6 network's edge
