. The HPE Networking Comware Switch Series 5140 EI delivers scalability high availability and low TCO at the access layer of medium and large enterprise campus networks. The series offers enterprise-class QoS and security HPE Intelligent Resilient Fabric (IRF) stacking static layer 3 routing and RIP; convenient fixed 10GbE uplink ports PoE+ ACLs and IPv6; and delivers energy savings with Energy Efficient Ethernet. The HPE Networking Comware Switch Series 5140 EI also includes Smart Management Center (SmartMC) an embedded network management tool that can be leveraged at no additional cost by small and medium networks for centralized management and operations. The series can also be managed with HPE Aruba Networking IMC for a single view of your entire network. Scalability and High AvailabilityThe HPE Networking Comware Switch Series 5140 EI delivers scalability and enhances reliability of the network with HPE Intelligent Resilient Fabric (IRF) technology. IRF stacking enables virtual resilient switching fabrics where two or more switches perform as a single L2 switch and L3 router.. HPE IRF stacking enhances performance and reliability with uninterrupted L2 switching and L3 forwarding and reduces operational complexity with simpler flatter and more agile networks. Four fixed uplinks (SFP SFP+ and 10GBASE-T) deliver performance for bandwidth intensive applicationsLink redundancy with support for protocols such as Spanning Tree/MSTP RSTP and Smart link provides high availability. Comprehensive Security ControlThe HPE Networking Comware Switch Series 5140 EI supports flexible authentication methods including 802.1X and MAC Authentication for greater security and policy-driven application authentication. Per-user access control lists (ACLs) provide identity-driven security and access control.. ACLs provide IP Layer 2 to Layer 4 traffic filtering while supporting global ACL VLAN ACL port ACL and IPv6 ACL.Dynamic ARP protection with functions such as ARP Detection and ARP packet validation that block broadcasts from unauthorized hosts preventing eavesdropping or theft of network data.Centralized security policy management and network protection with HPE Aruba Networking IMC End User Admission Domination (EAD) which integrates security policies network access control and access right control policies to form a cooperative security system.Enhance security with encryption of access methods (CLI GUI or MIB) through SSHv2 SSL and/or SNMPv3 and other features including DHCP protection IP source guard and RADIUS/HWTACAS. Simplified ManagementThe HPE Networking Comware Switch Series 5140 EI can be seamlessly managed with HPE Aruba Networking IMC to provide end-to-end network transparency with a consistent network experience through comprehensive configuration compliance and policy management.. Supports SmartMC an embedded network management tool with a web-based GUI to simplify operations and facilitate centralized management. It offers features such as configuration backup software version management and seamless switch replacement.RMON and sFlow provide advanced monitoring and reporting capabilities for statistics history alarms and events. Enhanced Quality of ServiceThe HPE Networking Comware Switch Series 5140 EI supports advanced classifier-based QoS which groups traffic using multiple match criteria based on Layer 2 and 3 information; it applies QoS policies such as setting priority level and rate limit to selected traffic on a port VLAN or entire switch.Provides traffic prioritization with supported congestion actions include strict priority (SP) queuing weighted round robin (WRR) weighted random early detection (WRED) and SP+WRR and traffic policing with Committed Access Rate (CAR) and line rate.Reduce unwanted network traffic with broadcast control and limitation of broadcast traffic rate to cut down on
