Yes. The HP ProCurve Routing Switches support QoS (Prioritization) based upon the TCP and UDP port numbers.

Yes. The HP ProCurve Routing Switches execute wire-speed Layer 4 switching decisions based on source and destination IP address in combination with TCP and UDP port numbers. See similar questions...

The HP ProCurve Routing Switches support 4 user-configurable QoS priority levels on a per-port or global (per system) basis. See similar questions...

Yes. The HP ProCurve Routing Switch 9304m ships with 1 power supply installed and has 1 open redundant power supply slot. The HP ProCurve Routing Switches 9308m and 9315m are shipping with 2 power supplies installed and have 2 open redundant power supply slots. When a redundant power supply is installed in the chassis, it operates on a load-sharing basis, meaning the two or more installed power supplies share the distribution of power. See similar questions...

Yes. You can create up to 22 trunk groups with the HP ProCurve Routing Switches. It is possible to use from two to eight ports (two to four ports prior to software version 7.5.x) for each trunk group. See similar questions...

The following modules are also available. Note that these modules are managed using one of the management modules listed in the previous question. J4143A HP ProCurve 9300 Gigabit-SX Module, which provides 8 1000Base-SX ports with SC connectors for 50 or 62. See similar questions...

There is only one "EP" redundant management module available for the HP ProCurve Routing Switches. A maximum of 2 redundant management modules are supported in a chassis. J4885A HP ProCurve 9300 EP 8-Port Mini-GBIC Redundant Management Module, which provides 8 open slots for Gigabit Mini-GBICs. See similar questions...

The systems default and maximum parameters can be viewed by issuing the following command at the CLI: For software version 7.1.24 they are defined as follows, but these values may be different in other versions of the software: See similar questions...

The HP ProCurve Routing Switches allow you to assign VLANs on a protocol (IP, IPX, DECnet, AppleTalk, NetBIOS, or others), subnet (IP subnet or IPX network), port, or 802.1Q tagged basis. See similar questions...

One management module must be configured for each HP ProCurve Routing Switch 9304m or 9308m chassis. You can choose from the following: J4141A HP ProCurve 9300 10/100 Management Module, which provides 16 10/100Base-TX ports with RJ-45 connectors J4144A HP ProCurve 9300 Gigabit-SX Management Module, which provides 8 1000Base-SX ports with SC connectors for 50 or 62. See similar questions...

The following "EP" modules are also available. Note that these modules are managed with the "EP" redundant management module listed in the previous question. J4881A/B HP ProCurve 9300 EP 48-Port 10/100-TX RJ-45 Module, which provides 48 10/100Base-TX ports with RJ-45 connectors. J4889A/B HP ProCurve 9300 EP 48-Port 10/100-TX Telco (RJ-21) Module, which provides 48 10/100Base-TX ports with RJ-21 connectors. See similar questions...

Note: In the following discussion, route summarization is the grouping of multiple smaller subnets into a single larger one. In other words, it is the collapse of multiple routes with a long mask to form another route with a shorter mask. The HP ProCurve Switch 2650 and Switch 6108 have a network route table with 16 entries and a host route table with 128 entries. The network route table gets populated by the static routes configured in the switch (up to 16 static routes). See similar questions...

No. The "standard" and "EP" modules cannot be mixed in a single chassis. However, the 10-Gigabit Ethernet (10 GbE) modules are supported with either a "standard" or an "EP" redundant management module. That is, the 10 GbE modules will function properly in a chassis of "standard" modules or in a chassis of "EP" modules. See similar questions...

However, the HP ProCurve Routing Switch 9308m and 9304m will continue to switch packets (similar to an unmanaged switch). If you are concerned about management redundancy, the following redundant management modules are available: No. The operating system required for the redundant management modules is different from the operating system required for the non-redundant management modules. They can not be mixed in the same chassis. See similar questions...

The SNMP functionality is read-only and is used by ProCurve Manager to discover and map the device. SNMP cannot be used to configure the switch or send SNMP traps to a trap receiver. See similar questions...

No. These switches do not implement the 802.1P priority standard. However, there is a configurable option that allows the switch to send IGMP packets with high priority over normal traffic. This feature is located on the IGMP Service configuration screen under the Advanced Features menu of the switch console interface. See similar questions...

These switches are compatible with the larger (1522 byte) tagged packets created when VLAN tagging is implemented on a network. However, VLANS are not configurable on these switches. So these switches will pass the 1522 byte tagged packets but will not read and act on the VLAN ID which is contained in the tagged packets. This means that these switches can be used on networks with tagged packets but the tagged packets will be treated as normal packets and switched to proper ports. See similar questions...

No. If meshing is configured on the switch, the routing features (IP routing, RIP, and OSPF) must be disabled. The switch's meshing and routing features cannot be enabled at the same time. The ProCurve 5400zl, 3500yl, and 6200yl switches are compatible with the meshing feature on the 5300xl and 3400cl Series switches. There is no backward-compatibility mode for interoperation with a ProCurve Switch 4000M mesh. See similar questions...

The document titled Support for the J8177B 1000Base-T Mini-GBIC specifies software requirements to use that mini-GBIC in ProCurve switches. The document also identifies ProCurve switches and modules that do not support the J8177B 1000Base-T mini-GBIC, for example products with "dual-personality" ports. The document titled Support for the J9054B 100-FX SFP-LC Transceiver specifies software requirements to use this SFP in ProCurve switches. See similar questions...

Yes. These switches do implement IGMP and therefore are able to control distribution of multicast packet streams based on which ports have subscribers to particular multicast groups. See similar questions...
