Overview
The Open Application Platform (OAP) cards are developed based on the
Open Application Architecture (OAA) by HP.
An OAP card has an independent CPU and memory card (CF card), and
it can load various service software. After you install an OAP card in a
switch, the switch can provide security, management, and wireless
communication applications flexibly and rapidly besides basic data
forwarding functions. In this way, multiple kinds of applications are
implemented on the same device, facilitating network and service
deployment and reducing overall cost at the same time.
The firewall card and access controller module are two types of OAP
cards. For more information, see

Firewall
card
Besides the traditional firewall functions, a firewall
card supports virtual firewall, security zone, attack
defense, and P2P flow control, thus effectively
ensuring network security; supports multiple VPN
services, such as IPsec VPN, thus allowing you to
build various VPNs; supports multiple routing
protocols, such as RIP, OSPF and BGP, thus
providing abundant routing capabilities. Using a
firewall card, a switch can implement security
functions, such as firewall and VPN, to ensure
network security.

Access
controller
module
An access controller (AC) module can provide
large-scale access point (AP) management and
user access services, support wireless standards
including 802.11a/b/g, 802.11n, 802.11i,
802.11e and 802.11h, and provide perfect
security, QoS, roaming, and RF management
mechanisms.
