Data sheet | HP 5120 EI Switch Series
• Remote intelligent mirroring
mirrors ingress/egress ACL-selected traic from a switch port or VLAN to a local or remote
switch port anywhere on the network
• Device Link Detection Protocol (DLDP)
monitors a cable between two switches and shuts down the ports on both ends if the cable is
broken, which prevents network problems such as loops
• IPv6 management
provides future-proof networking because the switch is capable of being managed whether
the attached network is running IPv4 or IPv6; supports pingv6, tracertv6, Telnetv6, TFTPv6,
DNSv6, syslogv6, FTPv6, SNMPv6, DHCPv6, and RADIUS for IPv6
• Troubleshooting
ingress and egress port monitoring enables network problem-solving; virtual cable tests
provide visibility into cable problems
Connectivity
• Auto-MDIX
automatically adjusts for straight-through or crossover cables on all 10/100/1000 ports
• Flow control
provides back pressure using standard IEEE 802.3x, reducing congestion in heavy
traic situations
• Jumbo packet support
supports up to 9216-byte frame size to improve the performance of large data transfers
• High-density connectivity
provides up to 48 xed 10/100/1000BASE-T ports in a Layer 2/Layer 3 switch
• Optional 10GbE ports
deliver, through the use of optional modules, additional 10GbE connections, which are
available for uplinks or high-bandwidth server connections; exibly support copper, XFP, SFP+,
or CX4 local connections
• IEEE 802.3at Power over Ethernet (PoE+) support
simplies deployment and dramatically reduces installation costs by helping to eliminate the
time and cost involved in supplying local power at each access point location
• Ethernet operations, administration and maintenance (OAM)
detects data link layer problems that occurred in the “last mile” using the IEEE 802.3ah OAM
standard; monitors the status of the link between two devices
• High-bandwidth CX4 local stacking
achieves 12 Gb/s per connection when using local CX4 stacking, allowing for up to 96 Gb/s
total stacking bandwidth (full duplex) in a resilient stacking conguration
Performance
• Nonblocking architecture
up to 192 Gb/s nonblocking switching fabric provides wirespeed switching with up
to 143 million pps throughput
• Hardware-based wirespeed access control lists (ACLs)
help provide high levels of security and ease of administration without impacting network
performance with a feature-rich TCAM-based ACL implementation
Resiliency and high availability
• Separate data and control paths
separates control from services and keeps service processing isolated; increases security and
performance
• External redundant power supply
provides high reliability
