Datasheet

Features and benefits
Performance
35.7 Mpps at 64 bytes (ProCurve 2810-24G) and
71.4 Mpps at 64 bytes (ProCurve Switch
2810-48G): ten times the bandwidth for
low-latency throughput
Connectivity
Dual-personality functionality: four 10/100/1000
ports or mini-GBIC slots for optional fiber
connectivity such as Gigabit-SX, -LX, or -LH
Resiliency and high availability
IEEE 802.3ad Link Aggregation Protocol (LACP)
and ProCurve trunking: support up to 24 trunks,
each with up to 8 links (ports) per trunk
IEEE 802.1s Multiple Spanning Tree: provides
high link availability in multiple VLAN
environments by allowing multiple spanning trees;
provides legacy support for IEEE 802.1d and IEEE
802.1w
Optional redundant power supply: provides
uninterrupted power (provided by ProCurve 600
RPS/EPS)
Layer 2 switching
VLAN support and tagging: support complete
IEEE 802.1Q (4,096 VLAN IDs) and 256 VLANs
simultaneously
GARP VLAN Registration Protocol: allows
automatic learning and dynamic assignment of
VLANs
Jumbo packet support: supports up to 9,216 byte
frame size to improve performance of large data
transfers
Security
Port security: allows access only to specified MAC
addresses, which can be learned or specified by the
administrator
MAC address lockout: prevents configured
particular MAC addresses from connecting to the
network
Multiple user authentication methods:
- IEEE 802.1X: industry-standard way of user
authentication using an IEEE 802.1X supplicant
on the client in conjunction with a RADIUS
server
- Web-based authentication: similar to IEEE
802.1X, provides a browser-based environment to
authenticate clients that do not support the IEEE
802.1X supplicant
- MAC-based authentication: client is
authenticated with the RADIUS server based on
the MAC address of the client
Secure FTP: allows secure file transfer to/from the
switch; protects against unwanted file downloads
or unauthorized copying of switch configuration
file
TACACS+: eases switch management security
administration by using a password authentication
server
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
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 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
Ease of use
Locator LED: allows users to set the locator LED
on a specific switch to either turn on, blink, or turn
off; simplifies troubleshooting by making it easy to
