1.4 HP Switch Positioning
A widely used method for segmenting the areas in which switches are installed calls for three different
classifications: access, distribution and core. Access switches provide aggregation of end nodes for
connection to a distribution or core switch and are usually found in wiring closets. Distribution
switches aggregate the links from access switches and possibly server farms. Distribution switches
anchor the network in a building, or for small networks, across a campus. Core switches provide the
focal point of the local network, aggregating the distribution switches, providing connectivity for
central site data centers, and providing connectivity in many cases to the external network.
Access switch requirements vary depending on the use model of the customer. Some customers just
want basic aggregation with high speed uplinks. Other customers require a more sophisticated
approach with security, QoS, Layer 3 routing services, VLAN services, flexible filtering, and some level
of fault tolerance. The HP ProCurve Switch 5300xl Series meets the needs of the sophisticated access
tier implementation.
Other switches in the HP ProCurve switch product line cover the needs of the lower end access tier, as
well as distribution and core areas of the network.
