Product description
HPE 5800 series switch offers an unmatched combination of Gigabit and 10-Gigabit Ethernet port density, high-availability architecture, and full Layer 2 and Layer 3 dual-stack IPv4 and IPv6 capabilities. In addition to wire-speed line-rate performance on all ports, the switch includes patented Intelligent Resilient Framework (IRF) technology and Rapid Ring Protection Protocol (RRPP), which allow local or geographically distributed HPE 5800 switch to be interconnected for higher resiliency and performance. This switch is ideal for use in the network core of buildings or departments, or as a high-performance switch in the convergence layer or network edge of enterprise campus networks.
Product features
- Integrated network services
With support for open application architecture (OAA) modules, extends and integrates application capability into the network. - Ring Resiliency Protection Protocol (RRPP)
It provides fast recovery for ring Ethernet-based topology; provides consistent application performance for applications such as VoIP. - Remote configuration and management
It is available through a secure web browser or a command-line interface (CLI). - IEEE 802.1ab LLDP discovery
It advertises and receives management information from adjacent devices on a network. - Auto-MDIX
It automatically adjusts for straight-through or crossover cables on all 10/100 ports. - Medium Power over Ethernet (PoE)
It supports a medium Power over Ethernet (PoE) power supply, with each port providing up to 30 W of output power. - Hardware-based wire-speed access control lists (ACLs)
Feature-rich ACL implementation (TCAM based) helps ensure high levels of security and ease of administration without impacting network performance. - Unique flex-chassis architecture
It supports the best of both fixed chassis and modular configurations. - Full-featured console
It provides complete control of the switch with a familiar command-line interface (CLI). - Web interface
It alows configuration of the switch from any web browser on the network. - RMON and sFlow
It provides advanced monitoring and reporting capabilities for statistics, history, alarms, and events. - Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP)
It simplifies the management of large IP networks and supports client and server; DHCP relay enables DHCP operation across subnets. - Policy-based routing
It makes routing decisions based on policies set by the network administrator. - Defense-in-depth security
It provides integrated and distributed security enforcement that can be managed from a central location, such as the HPE Intelligent Management Center (IMC). - Advanced processor queuing mechanism
It helps prevent denial-of-service (DoS) attacks, while DHCP snooping helps ensure that devices can only receive an IP address from a legitimate DHCP server on the network.
