High performance modular stacking for up to 10 switches provides pay as you grow scalability and simplicity. The 2930M supports 10GbE and 40GbE uplinks, Dual Modular Power Supplies, up to 1440 Watts of PoE+, models with 24 ports of HPE Smart Rate multi-gigabit Ethernet, robust QoS, RIP, Access OSPF routing, Tunnel Node, PIM, VRRP and IPv6 with no software licensing required.
The Aruba 2930M Switch Series provides a convenient and cost-effective access switch solution that can be quickly set up with Zero Touch Deployment. The switches include a Limited Lifetime Warranty.
FEATURES AND BENEFITS
Software-defined networking
- OpenFlow supports OpenFlow 1.3 specifications to enable SDN by allowing separation of the data (packet forwarding) and control (routing decision) paths
Unified Wired and Wireless ?
- ClearPass Policy Manager supports unified wired and wireless policies using Aruba ClearPass Policy Manager
- Switch auto-configuration automatically configures switch for different settings such as VLAN, CoS, PoE max power, and PoE priority when an Aruba access point is detected
- User role defines a set of switch-based policies in areas such as security, authentication, and QoS. A user role can be assigned to a group of users or devices, using switchbased local user role or download from ClearPass
- Tunnel Node provides a secure tunnel that transports network traffic on a per-port or per-user role basis to an Aruba Controller. In a per-user role Tunnel Node, users are authenticated by the ClearPass Policy Manager which directs traffic to be tunneled to an Aruba controller or switch locally
- HTTP redirect function supports HPE Intelligent Management Center (IMC) bring your own device (BYOD) solution
Quality of Service (QoS)
- Traffic prioritization (IEEE 802.1p) allows real-time traffic classification into eight priority levels mapped to eight queues
- 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
- Rate limiting sets per-port ingress enforced maximums and per-port, per-queue minimums ?
- Large buffers Provide graceful congestion management
- Optical Fiber
- Twisted Pair
- Gigabit Ethernet
- 10 Gigabit Ethernet
- 10/100/1000Base-T
- 10GBase-T
