Resiliency and high availability
-
IEEE 802.3ad Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP): provides link-level redundancy; support for up to 4 trunks, with up to 7 links (ports) per trunk on the Switch 1700-8, and support for 12 trunks, with up to 8 links (ports) per trunk on the Switch 1700-24
Layer 2 switching
-
VLAN support and tagging: support up to 64 port-based VLANs and dynamic configuration of IEEE 802.1Q VLAN tagging, providing security between workgroups
Security
-
Management password: provides security so that only authorized access to the Web browser interface is allowed
Quality of Service (QoS)
-
IEEE 802.1p prioritization: delivers data to devices by honoring the priority and type of traffic
-
Broadcast control: allows limitation of broadcast traffic rate to cut down on unwanted broadcast traffic on the network
Manageability
-
Intuitive Web interface: enables simple management via an easy-to-use Web browser interface for switch configuration, monitoring, and administration
-
Integration with ProCurve Manager: enables discovery and mapping via ProCurve Manager, available as a free download from the Web
-
IEEE 802.1AB Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP): automated device discovery protocol for easy mapping by network management applications
Monitor and diagnostics
-
Port mirroring: enables traffic on a port to be simultaneously sent to a network analyzer for monitoring
Ease of use
-
Comprehensive LED display with per-port indicators: provides an at-a-glance view of status, activity, speed, and full-duplex operation
-
ProCurve/IEEE Auto-MDIX: automatically adjusts for straight-through or crossover cables on all 10/100/1000 ports
Flexibility
-
Small form factor: ideal for desktop use; space-efficient for deployment flexibility (1700-8 only)
-
Designed with no fan: enables quiet operation for deployment in open spaces
