Introducing the ProCurve Series 8100fl Switch
The ProCurve Series 8100fl switches are multiport modular switches that
perform non-blocking, wire-speed, layer-2 switching, layer-3 routing, and
layer-4 application switching. They are designed to interconnect LAN
networks built upon the ProCurve Adaptive EDGE Architecture, as an
alternative to traditional core routing switches. These interconnect switches
provide high bandwidth, high availability, and high performance connectivity
between Intelligent EDGE devices, supporting applications that require
