This header is then forwarded to the programmable sect

HP ProCurve Switch 5300xl Series Reviewer’s Guide 2.2.3 F-Chip The fabric, or F-Chip, which is located on the backplane of the switch, provides the crossbar fabric for interconnecting the modules together. The use of a crossbar allows wire speed connections simultaneously from any module to any other module. As mentioned in the N-Chip section, the connection between the F-Chip and each N-Chip (module) in the chassis is through a 9.6Gbps full duplex link. One unique function of the F-Chi

HP ProCurve Switch 5300xl Series Reviewer’s Guide 2.3.3 Switch Meshing (LAN Aggregation) The HP ProCurve Switch 5300xl Series family supports HP’s Switch Meshing, a way to interconnect these switches in a meshed topology at Layer 2. Meshed switch-to-switch links can all be used simultaneously to their full advantage, with traffic being load-balanced through redundant links based on dynamically determined latency on the different possible paths between switches. Highly available, faul

HP ProCurve Switch 5300xl Series Reviewer’s Guide • Unlike a router, no packet modification is required as it travels through the switch. Other HP ProCurve switches that support Switch Meshing, such as the HP ProCurve Switch 4000M family, will work together in a mesh with the HP ProCurve Switch 5300xl Series. There are a few corner case caveats in this type of mixed environment that are covered in the HP ProCurve 5300xl documentation. The HP ProCurve 5300xl documentation can be found at:

It is also possible to set a new DSCP and 802.1p priority based on the incoming DSCP, or set the 802.1p priority alone based on the incoming DSCP. The ability to re-write the DSCP allows the network manager to: • Identify packets coming from a different area of the network, such as a remote site, by changing the DSCP

HP ProCurve Switch 5300xl Series Reviewer’s Guide 2.4.5 End-to-End QoS QoS capabilities in the switch allow it to deal with two different concerns that arise in Ethernet networks: congestion control and latency. In the past, controlling traffic congestion was viewed as the primary reason for QoS. But with Ethernet prices dropping substantially year after year it has been easier and lower cost to deal with congestion, at least in the local LAN, by increasing the bandwidth available to tra

This is in keeping with the typical use of ACLs as a security mechanism. If the automatic denial property is not wanted, the ACL should end with an ACE statement permitting ANY. To assist in writing and editing ACLs, the ACL file can be edited externally and downloaded into the 5300. A typical use for standard ACLs is to allow a single end node on one subne
