HP ProCurve 4148gl, ProCurve 4104gl, ProCurve 4160gl, J4887A, J4861A Specifications

ProCurve Switch 4100gl Series

The ProCurve Switch 4100gl series is convergence-ready and easy to use, and is
available in compact 8-slot and 4-slot modular form factors. Based on ProCurve
Fast Path Technology, these switches provide reliable, high-performance,
high-density 10 Mbit, 100 Mbit, or Gigabit connectivity for a growing network.
The ProCurve 4100gl series is the low-cost, modular alternative to stackable
switches and includes a lifetime warranty.

ProCurve Switch 4100gl Series

Features and benefits

Performance

• Fast Path Technology: wire-speed switching of

intra-module traffic for up to 31.9 million pps
throughput; fully loaded 8-slot chassis capable of
switching 255 million pps

• Fast switch fabric: inter-module traffic

switching of up to 2.97 million pps

Resiliency and high availability

• IEEE 802.3ad Link Aggregation Control

Protocol (LACP) and ProCurve trunking:

support up to 6 trunks, each with up to 4 links
(ports) per trunk; trunking across modules is
supported

• IEEE 802.1w Rapid Convergence Spanning

Tree Protocol: increases network uptime through

faster recovery from failed links

• Optional redundant power supply: provides

uninterrupted power; allows hot-swapping of one
of the two supplies when installed

Security

• Port security: allows access only to specified

MAC addresses, which can be learned or
specified by the administrator

• IEEE 802.1X and RADIUS network login and

OpenVLAN: control port-based access for

authentication and accountability

• TACACS+: eases switch management security

administration by using a password
authentication server

• Secure Shell (SSHv2): encrypts all transmitted

data for secure, remote command-line interface
(CLI) access over IP networks

• Secure Sockets Layer (SSL): encrypts all HTTP

traffic, allowing secure access to the
browser-based management GUI in the switch

• Secure management access: all access

methods--CLI, GUI, or MIB--are securely
encrypted through SSHv2, SSL, and/or SNMPv3

• Hot-swappable modules: permit modules,

mini-GBICs, and one of the power supplies in a
redundant power supply configuration to be
added or swapped without interrupting the
network

Layer 2 switching

• VLAN support and tagging: supports the IEEE

802.1Q (4,096 VLAN IDs) and 30 VLANs
simultaneously

• GARP VLAN Registration Protocol: allows

automatic learning and dynamic assignment of
VLANs

Layer 3 routing

• Basic IP routing: enables automatic routing to

the connected VLANs and up to 16 static
routes--including one default route--in IP
networks

Convergence

• IEEE 802.1AB Link Layer Discovery Protocol

(LLDP): automated device discovery protocol for

easy mapping by network management
applications

• Stacking capability: single IP address

management for a virtual stack of up to 16
switches, including the ProCurve 2500 series,
2510 series, 2600 series, 2800 series, 2810 series,
2900 series, 3400cl series, 3500yl series, 4200vl
series, 6108, 6200yl-24G-mGBIC, and 6400cl
series

Quality of Service (QoS)

• Traffic prioritization (IEEE 802.1p): allows

real-time traffic classification into 8 priority
levels mapped to 4 queues

ProCurve Switch 4100gl Series

Manageability

• RMON: provides advanced monitoring and

reporting capabilities for statistics, history,
alarms, and events

• Friendly port names: allow assignment of

descriptive names to ports

• ProCurve/IEEE Auto-MDIX: automatically

adjusts for straight-through or crossover cables
on all 10/100/1000 ports

• Dual flash images: provides independent

primary and secondary OS files for backup while
upgrading

Industry-leading warranty

• Lifetime warranty: for as long as you own the

product, with next-business-day advance
replacement (available in most countries)
