Introducing the Switch
Switch Features
■
Automatic learning of the hardware addresses in each switch’s 16000-
address forwarding table, (with configurable address aging value).
■ Automatically negotiated full-duplex operation for the 10/100/1000 RJ-45
ports when connected to other auto-negotiating devices.
■ A “Save Power” mode option that keeps port LEDs turned off except for
when the LED Mode select button is pressed.
■ An automatic low-power mode for ports when a link is not present.
■ Easy management of the switches through several available interfaces:
• Console interface — a full featured, easy to use, VT-100 terminal
interface that is especially good for out-of-band switch management
or for Telnet access to the switch.
•
Web browser interface
— an easy to use built-in graphical interface
that can be accessed from common Web browsers.
• SNMP-based network management:
– HP PCM/PCM+ — a graphical network management tool that
you can use to manage your entire small to medium-sized
network.
– Intelligent Management Center (IMC) — the HP graphics
network management tool intended to manage any sized
network. IMC support for the HP 2530 switches is planned for
early 2013. Go to

to check on support
availability.
■
Support for the Spanning Tree Protocol to eliminate network loops.
■ Support for up to 512 IEEE 802.1Q-compliant VLANs so you can divide
the attached end nodes into logical groupings that fit your business needs.
■ Download of new switch software for product enhancements or bug fixes.
■ Variable speed fans ensure quiet operation.
■
Support for many advanced features to enhance network performance.

Save Power Mode
A Save Power mode feature can be configured through the console. Save
Power mode can be used to turn off port LEDs unless the LED Mode button
is pressed. In addition, it can configure the LAN ports to operate at low power
if a link is not detected.
