Multiple-instance spanning tree protocol/MSTP (802.1s):

designed to avoid loops and broadcast storms of duplicate
messages that can bring down the network.
Switch management, including system configuration, switch
bootup, activation of boot ROM image, memory buffers, traffic
and security filters.
System messages also include events from Management
interfaces (menu, CLI, web browser, ProCurve Manager) used
to reconfigure the switch and monitor switch status and
performance.
TACACS+ authentication: A central server is used to control
access to the switches (and other TACACS-aware devices) in
the network through a switch’s console port (local access) or
Telnet (remote access).
Transmission Control Protocol: A transport protocol that runs
on IP and is used to set up connections.
Session established on the switch from a remote device
through the Telnet virtual terminal protocol.
Trivial File Transfer Protocol: Supports the download of files to
the switch from a TFTP network server.
Time Protocol: Synchronizes and ensures a uniform time
among interoperating devices.
Uni-directional Link Detection: Monitors a link between two
switches and blocks the ports on both ends of the link if the
link fails at any point between the two devices.
Updates (TFTP or serial) to ProCurve software and updates to
