Datasheet

ProCurve Switch 4200vl Series
• Source-port filtering: allows only specified
ports to communicate with each other
• Secure Shell (SSHv2): encrypts all transmitted
data for secure, remote command-line
interface (CLI) access over IP networks
• Secure Sockets Layer (SSL): encrypts all HTTP
traffic, allowing secure access to the browser-
based management GUI in the switch
• Switch management logon security:
can require either RADIUS or TACACS+
authentication for secure switch CLI logon
• Custom banner: displays security policy when
users log in to the switch
Convergence
• IP multicast (data-driven IGMPv3):
automatically prevents flooding of IP multicast
traffic
• IEEE 802.1AB Link Layer Discovery Protocol
(LLDP): automated device discovery protocol
for easy mapping by network management
applications
• LLDP-MED (Media Endpoint Discovery): a
standard extension of LLDP that stores values
for parameters such as QoS and VLAN to
automatically configure network devices such
as IP phones
Quality of Service (QoS)
• Traffic prioritization (IEEE 802.1p): allows
real-time traffic classification into 8 priority
levels mapped to 4 queues
• Class of Service (CoS): sets the IEEE 802.1p
priority tag based on IP address, IP Type
of Service (ToS), L3 protocol, TCP/UDP port
number, source port, and DiffServ
• Layer 4 prioritization: enables prioritization
based on TCP/UDP port numbers
Manageability
• sFlow (RFC 3176): wire-speed traffic
accounting and monitoring
• RMON and XRMON: provide advanced
monitoring and reporting capabilities for
statistics, history, alarms, and events
• 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: allows a config
file to be stored to flash image
• Stacking capability: single IP address
management for a virtual stack of up to
16 switches, including the ProCurve 2500
series, 2510 series, 2600 series, 2800 series,
2810 series, 2900 series, 3400cl series, 3500yl
series, 4200vl series, 6108, 6200yl-24G-mGBIC,
and 6400cl series
