SWITCH SERIES
PRODUCT OVERVIEW
Designed for the digital workplace, the Aruba 2540 Switch
Series is optimized for mobile users. With advanced security
and network management tools—Aruba ClearPass Policy
Manager and Aruba AirWave—this layer-2 access switch
is easy to deploy and manage. With support from Aruba
Central, you can quickly set up remote branch sites with little
or no IT support. A powerful Aruba ProVision ASIC delivers
performance, robust feature support, and value with exible
programmability for future applications.
The Aruba 2540 Switch Series provides a convenient and
cost-eective wired access solution that can be quickly set
up with Zero Touch Provisioning. PoE+ models deliver power
across all access ports for wireless APs, security cameras, and
IoT devices.
The 2540 has wire-speed backhaul bandwidth capacity with
built-in 10 GbE uplinks, robust QoS, static and RIP routing,
IPv6 and includes a limited lifetime warranty with no software
licensing required.
FEATURES AND BENEFITS
Unied Wired and Wireless
• ClearPass Policy Manager supports unied wired and
wireless policies using Aruba ClearPass Policy Manager.
• Switch auto-conguration automatically congures
switches for dierent settings such as VLAN, CoS, PoE
max power, and PoE priority when an Aruba access point
is detected.

easy mapping using network management applications with
LLDP automated device discovery protocol.
• LLDP-MED (Media Endpoint Discovery) denes a standard
extension of LLDP that stores values for parameters such
as QoS and VLAN to congure automatically network
devices such as IP phones.
• PoE and PoE+ allocations support multiple methods
(automatic, IEEE 802.3at dynamic, LLDP-MED ne grain,
IEEE 802.3af device class, or user-specied) to allocate
and manage PoE and PoE+ power for more ecient
energy savings.
• Local MAC Authentication assigns attributes such as VLAN
and QoS using locally congured prole that can be a list
of MAC prexes.
Resiliency and high availability
• IEEE 802.1s Multiple Spanning Tree provides high link
availability in multiple VLAN environments by allowing
multiple spanning trees; provides legacy support for IEEE
802.1d and IEEE 802.1w.
• IEEE 802.3ad link-aggregation-control protocol (LACP)
and port trunking support up to 26 static, dynamic, or
distributed trunks with each trunk having up to eight links
(ports) per static trunk.
• SmartLink provides easy-to-congure link redundancy of
active and standby links.
Management
• SNMPv1, v2, and v3 provide complete support of SNMP;
provide full support of industry-standard Management
Information Base (MIB) plus private extensions; SNMPv3
supports increased security using encryption.
• Zero-Touch Provisioning (ZTP) simplies installation of the
switch infrastructure using the Aruba Activate-based or a
DHCP-based process with AirWave Network Management.
• Flexible management with same hardware – Supports both
cloud-based Central and on-premise AirWave with the
same hardware ensuring change management platform
without ripping and replacing switching infrastructure
• Aruba Central cloud-based management platform oers a

includes ECMP capability.
• 256 static and 2,000 RIP routes facilitate segregation of
user data, without adding external hardware.
• Routing Information Protocol (RIP) provides RIPv1, RIPv2,
and RIPng routing.
Security
• Multiple user authentication methods
- IEEE 802.1X Uses an IEEE 802.1X supplicant on the client
in conjunction with a RADIUS server to authenticate in
accordance with industry standards.
- Web-based authentication provides a browser-based
environment, similar to IEEE 802.1X, to authenticate
clients that do not support the IEEE 802.1X supplicant.
- MAC-based authentication authenticates the client with
the RADIUS server based on the client’s MAC address.
• Authentication exibility
- Multiple IEEE 802.1X users per port provides
authentication of multiple IEEE 802.1X users per port;
prevents a user from piggybacking on another user’s
IEEE 802.1X authentication.
- Concurrent IEEE 802.1X, Web, and MAC authentication
schemes per port switch port will accept up to 32
sessions of IEEE 802.1X, Web, and MAC authentications.
• Access control lists (ACLs) provide IP Layer 3 ltering
based on source and destination IP address or subnet and
source and destination TCP/UDP port number.
• Source-port ltering allows only specied ports to
communicate with each other.
• RADIUS/TACACS+ eases switch management security
administration by using a password authentication server.
• Secure shell encrypts all transmitted data for secure
remote CLI access over IP networks.
• Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encrypts all HTTP trac,
allowing secure access to the browser-based management
GUI in the switch.
• Port security allows access only to specied MAC
addresses, which can be learned or specied by
the administrator.
• MAC address lockout prevents particular congured MAC
addresses from connecting to the network.
• Secure FTP allows secure le transfer to and from the
switch; protects against unwanted le downloads or
unauthorized copying of a switch conguration le.
• Switch management logon security helps secure switch
CLI logon by optionally requiring either RADIUS or
TACACS+ authentication.
• Custom banner displays security policy when users log in
to the switch.
• STP BPDU port protection blocks Bridge Protocol Data
Units (BPDUs) on ports that do not require BPDUs,
preventing forged BPDU attacks.
• DHCP protection blocks DHCP packets from unauthorized
DHCP servers, preventing denial-of-service attacks.
• Dynamic ARP protection blocks ARP broadcasts from
unauthorized hosts, preventing eavesdropping or theft of
network data.
• Dynamic IP lockdown works with DHCP protection to block
trac from unauthorized hosts, preventing IP source
address spoong.
• STP root guard protects the root bridge from malicious
attacks or conguration mistakes.
• Identity-driven ACL enables implementation of a highly
granular and exible access security policy and VLAN
assignment specic to each authenticated network user.
• Per-port broadcast throttling congures broadcast control
selectively on heavy trac port uplinks.
