Introducing the Switch
Switch Features
■ Automatic learning of the network addresses in each switch’s 8000-
address forwarding table, (with configurable address aging value).
■ Automatically negotiated full-duplex operation for the 10/100 and 10/100/
1000 RJ-45 ports when connected to other auto-negotiating devices—the
mini-GBIC ports always operate at full duplex.
■ Easy management of the switch through several available interfaces:
• console interface—a full featured, easy to use, VT-100 terminal
interface that is especially good for out-of-band switch management
or for Telnet access to the switch.
• Web browser interface—an easy to use built-in graphical interface
that can be accessed from common web browsers.
• HP ProCurve Manager—an SNMP-based, graphical network
management tool that you can use to manage your entire network.
This product is included with your new switch.
■ Support for the Spanning Tree Protocol to eliminate network loops.
■ Support for up to 2048 IEEE 802.1Q-compliant VLANs so you can divide
the attached end nodes into logical groupings that fit your business needs.
■ Support for many advanced features to enhance network performance—
for a description, see the Management and Configuration Guide, which
is on the HP ProCurve Web site at www.hp.com/go/procurve/manuals. See
page 5-1 for details.
■ Download of new switch software for product enhancements or bug fixes.
■ Support for IEEE 802.3af Standard and Pre-standard PoE devices.
■ Support for IEEE 802.3at Standard and Pre-standard PoE+ devices.
