HP 6200

Reduced bandwidth
provides per-port, per-queue egress-based reduced 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 8200 zl, 6600, 6200 yl,
5400 zl, or 3500 Switch located 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)
advertises and receives management information from adjacent devices on a network, facilitating 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; an audit trail documents
activity
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 a cable between two switches and shuts down the ports on both ends if the cable is broken, turning the bidirectional
link into a unidirectional one; this prevents network problems such as loops
Management simplicity
provides common software features and CLI implementation across all ProVision-based switches (including the zl and yl
switches)
Comware-compatible CLI :
Comware-compatible CLI
bridges the experience of HP Comware CLI users who are using the HP ProVision software CLI
Display and fundamental Comware CLI commands
are embedded in the switch CLI as native commands; display output is formatted as on Comware-based switches, and
fundamental commands provide a Comware-familiar initial switch setup
Configuration Comware CLI commands
when Comware commands are entered, CLI help is elicited to formulate the correct ProVision software CLI command
Connectivity
Jumbo frames
on Gigabit Ethernet and 10-Gigabit Ethernet ports, jumbo frames allow high-performance remote backup and disaster-recovery
services
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
