HP 6600-24G-4XG Switch
J9264A
Key features
Enhanced for data center server access layer
Front-to-back, reversible airflow
Redundant, hot-swappable power supplies and fans
64K MAC address scalability
Consistent ProVision ASIC-based switch fabric
Product overview
The HP 6600 Switch Series consists of advanced data center server edge switches. The 6600 Switch Series includes
10/100/1000BASE-T and 10GbE SFP+ 1U rackmount switches enhanced for server edge connectivity with front-to-back
(reversible) airflow, redundant hot-swappable power, and redundant hot-swappable fans. The foundation for the switch series is a
purpose-built, programmable ProVision ASIC that allows the most demanding networking features, such as quality of service
(QoS) and security, to be implemented in a scalable yet granular fashion. With a variety of connectivity interfaces and expanded
buffering, the HP 6600 Switch Series offers excellent investment protection, flexibility, and scalability, as well as ease of
deployment and reduced operational expense.
Features and benefits
NEW Software-defined networking
OpenFlow
is a key technology enabling software-defined networking by allowing the separation of data (packet forwarding) and
control (routing decision) paths
Quality of Service (QoS)
Layer 4 prioritization
enables prioritization based on TCP/UDP port numbers
Class of Service (CoS)
sets the IEEE 802.1p priority tag based on IP address, IP Type of Service (ToS), Layer 3 protocol, TCP/UDP port number,
source port, and DiffServ
Bandwidth shaping:
o Port-based rate limiting: provides per-port ingress-/egress-enforced increased bandwidth
o Classifier-based rate limiting: uses an access control list (ACL) to enforce increased bandwidth for ingress
traffic on each port
o Reduced bandwidth: provides per-port, per-queue egress-based reduced bandwidth
Advanced classifier-based QoS
classifies traffic using multiple match criteria based on Layer 2, 3, and 4 information; applies QoS policies such as setting
priority level and rate limit to selected traffic on a per-port or per-VLAN basis
Traffic prioritization
allows real-time traffic classification into eight priority levels mapped to eight queues
Data center optimized
Front-to-back airflow
designed to be collocated at the top of a server rack, the 6600 Switch Series supports front-to-back airflow (mechanically
reversible) to support hot aisle/cold aisle configurations; the N+N fan tray is also hot-swappable, allowing easy
replacement in the rack
RETIRED: Retired products sold prior to the November 1, 2015 separation of Hewlett-Packard Company into Hewlett Packard Enterprise Company and HP Inc. may
have older product names and model numbers that differ from current models.

Modular internal power supplies
support redundant, hot-swappable power supply configurations (units ship with one supply); power load is shared across
dual supplies
Server-to-switch distributed trunking
supports Layer 2 LACP groups from a single server across two different switches for active-active server NIC teaming
configurations
Power down idle ports
save power by powering down blocks of idle Gigabit and 10GbE ports; idle ports can be reinitialized without rebooting;
available on 6600-24XG and 6600-48G-4XG models
Out-of-band management
remotely monitors and manages switch via Ethernet out-of-band management port; eliminates the need for terminal
server network; available on 6600-24XG and 6600-48G-4XG models
Deployment/Serviceability
data connectivity and management ports are all front-side accessible, and power supplies and fan trays are rear-side
accessible, allowing for easy maintenance and in-rack serviceability
Management
Remote intelligent mirroring
mirrors selected ingress/egress traffic based on ACL, port, MAC address, or VLAN to a local or remote HP 8200 zl, 6600,
6200 yl, 5400 zl, or 3500 Switch located anywhere on the network
RMON, XRMON, and sFlow v5
provide advanced monitoring and reporting capabilities for statistics, history, alarms, and events
Uni-Directional Link Detection (UDLD)
monitors a cable between two switches and shuts down the ports on both ends if the cable is broken, turning the
bidirectional link into a unidirectional one; this prevents network problems such as loops
IEEE 802.1AB Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP)
advertises and receives management information from adjacent devices on a network, facilitating easy mapping by
network management applications
Management simplicity
provided by common networking features and CLI implementation (common across HP 8200 zl, 6600, 6200 yl, 5400 zl,
and 3500 Switches)
Command authorization
leverages RADIUS to link a custom list of CLI commands to an individual network administrator's login; an audit trail
documents activity
Friendly port names
allow assignment of descriptive names to ports
Multiple configuration files
can be stored to the flash image
Dual flash images
provide independent primary and secondary operating system files for backup while upgrading
NEW Comware CLI
o Comware-compatible CLI
bridges the experience of HP Comware CLI users who are using the HP ProVision software CLI
o Display and fundamental Comware CLI commands
are embedded in the switch CLI as native commands; display output is formatted as on Comware-based
switches, and fundamental commands provide a Comware-familiar initial switch setup
o Configuration Comware CLI commands
when Comware commands are entered, CLI help is elicited to formulate the correct ProVision software CLI
command
Connectivity
Auto-MDIX
RETIRED: Retired products sold prior to the November 1, 2015 separation of Hewlett-Packard Company into Hewlett Packard Enterprise Company and HP Inc. may
have older product names and model numbers that differ from current models.

automatically adjusts for straight-through or crossover cables on all 10/100 and 10/100/1000 ports
Jumbo frames
on Gigabit Ethernet and 10-Gigabit Ethernet ports, jumbo frames allow high-performance remote backup and disasterrecovery services
IPv6:
o IPv6 host: enables switches to be managed in an IPv6 network
o Dual stack (IPv4 and IPv6): transitions from IPv4 to IPv6, supporting connectivity for both protocols
o MLD snooping: forwards IPv6 multicast traffic to the appropriate interface
o IPv6 ACL/QoS: supports ACL and QoS for IPv6 network traffic
o IPv6 routing: supports static and OSPFv3 routing protocols
o 6in4 tunneling: supports encapsulation of IPv6 traffic in IPv4 packets
Performance
High-speed, high-capacity architecture
based on the purpose-built ProVision ASICs to provide superior system performance and scalability
