provides server (RFC 2131), client, snooping, and relay options
SNMPv1, v2c, and v3
facilitate centralized discovery, monitoring, and secure management of networking devices
sFlow
provides scalable ASIC-based network monitoring and accounting; this allows network operators to gather a variety of
sophisticated network statistics and information for capacity planning and real-time network monitoring purposes
Network Time Protocol
(NTP)
synchronizes timekeeping among distributed time servers and clients; keeps consistent timekeeping among all clock-dependent
devices within the network so that the devices can provide diverse applications based on the consistent time
Connectivity
High-density port connectivity
194 10-GbE ports with a 40 Gbps resilient backplane
Data center I/O consolidation
the 5820-14XG FCoE module supports two 4x8/4/2 Gbps FCoE modules (up to eight FC ports total) to reduce cost and
complexity while boosting network performance
Auto-MDIX
provides automatic adjustments for straight-through or crossover cables on all 10/100 and 10/100/1000 ports
Jumbo frames
on Gigabit Ethernet and 10-Gigabit ports, jumbo frames allow high-performance remote backup and disaster-recovery services
IPv6 native support
IPv6 host
enables switches to be managed and deployed at the IPv6 network's edge
Dual stack (IPv4/IPv6)
transitions from IPv4 to IPv6, supporting connectivity for both protocols
MLD snooping
forwards IPv6 multicast traffic to the appropriate interface
IPv6 ACL/QoS
supports ACL and QoS for IPv6 network traffic, preventing traffic flooding
IPv6 routing
supports IPv6 static routes and IPv6 versions of RIP, OSPF, IS-IS, and Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) routing protocols
Performance
Hardware-based wire-speed access control lists (ACLs)
helps provide high levels of security and ease of administration without impacting network performance with a feature-rich
TCAM-based ACL implementation
Unique versatile architecture
supports the best of both fixed-port and modular configurations
Cut-through switching
delivers wire-speed, line-rate performance on all ports, as well as cut-through switching for low latency
Resiliency and high availability
Data center–optimized design
HP 5820AF-24XG Switch (JG219A) supports front-to-back/back-to-front airflow for hot/cold aisles, rear rack mounts, and
redundant hot-swappable AC or DC power and fans
Manageability
