HP 6200

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/capacity architecture
105.6 Gbps crossbar switching fabric provides intramodule and intermodule switching with 75.7 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 in 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
Uplink Failure Detection
provides active-standby network path redundancy for servers that are configured for active-standby NIC teaming
NEW SmartLink
provides easy-to-configure link redundancy of active and standby links
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 a high-speed
campus or metro network
HP 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 2,048 VLANs simultaneously
IEEE 802.1v protocol VLANs
isolate select non-IPv4 protocols automatically into their own VLANs
GARP VLAN Registration Protocol
allows automatic learning and dynamic assignment of VLANs
Rapid Per-VLAN Spanning Tree (RPVST+)
allows each VLAN to build a separate spanning tree to improve link bandwidth usage; is compatible with PVST+
