Features and benefits
Industry-leading warranty
Management
Remote intelligent mirroring: mirrors
selected ingress/egress traffic based on ACL,
port, MAC address, or VLAN to a local or remote
8200zl/6200yl/5400zl/3500yl switch anywhere
on the network
• RMON, XRMON, and sFlow v5: provide
advanced monitoring and reporting
capabilities for statistics, history, alarms, and
events
• IEEE 802.1AB Link Layer Discovery Protocol
(LLDP): automated device discovery protocol for
easy mapping by network management
applications
• Command authorization: leverages RADIUS
to link a custom list of CLI commands to
individual network administrator’s login;
also provides an audit trail
• Friendly port names: allow assignment of
descriptive names to ports
• Dual flash images: provides independent
primary and secondary OS files for backup
while upgrading
• Multiple configuration files: multiple config
files can be stored to the flash image
• Uni-Directional Link Detection (UDLD):
monitors a link between two switches and
blocks the ports on both ends of the link if the
link goes down at any point between the two
devices
• Management simplicity: ProCurve-common
networking features and CLI implementation
(common across ProCurve zl and yl switches)
Connectivity
IPv6:
– IPv6 Host: the switches can be managed and
deployed at the edge of IPv6 networks
– Dual Stack (IPv4/IPv6): provides transition
mechanism from IPv4 to IPv6; supports
connectivity for both protocols
– MLD Snooping: forwards IPv6 multicast
traffic to the appropriate interface; prevents
IPv6 multicast traffic from flooding the
network
– IPv6 ready: the switch hardware can support
IPv6 QoS, ACL, routing, tunneling, and
security; these features will be available
when enabled via software update in follow-
on releases
• IEEE 802.3af Power over Ethernet: provides up
to 15.4 W per port to IEEE 802.3af compliant
PoE powered devices such as IP phones,
wireless access points, and security cameras
• Pre-standard PoE support: detects and
provides power to pre-standard PoE devices;
see list of supported devices in the product FAQ
at www.procurve.com
• Jumbo frames: on Gigabit and 10-Gigabit
ports, allow high-performance remote backup
and disaster-recovery services
• Auto-MDIX: automatically adjusts for straight-
through or crossover cables on all 10/100/1000
ports
Performance
• 5400zl/3500yl architecture: 115 to 692 Gbps
crossbar switching fabric provides intra- and
inter-module switching with 36 to 428 million
pps throughput on the purpose-built ProVision
ASICs
