Product overview
The HP 5120 SI Switch Series comprises intelligent, fully managed Gigabit Ethernet switches that provide high performance, high port
density, and simplified installation to improve the value of your network infrastructure investment. The 5120 SI series is enhanced for
the access layer in enterprise networks that require Gigabit Ethernet to the desktop or at the distribution layer in metropolitan area
networks (MANs). Wire-speed forwarding delivers more effective throughput and the bandwidth necessary for mission-critical data and
high-speed communications. As part of their comprehensive security control, 5120 SI switches employ 802.1X authentication to
identify users who attempt to access the network. These switches are highly reliable, providing redundancy while eliminating loops in
the network. They also offer a range of management protocols to simplify network administration.
Features and benefits
Quality of Service (QoS)
Broadcast control : allows limitation of broadcast traffic rate to cut down on unwanted network broadcast traffic
Powerful QoS feature : supports the following congestion actions: strict priority (SP) queuing, SDWRR, and SP+SDWRR
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 basis
Management
Friendly port names : allow assignment of descriptive names to ports
Remote configuration and management : is available through a secure Web browser or a command-line interface (CLI)
Manager and operator privilege levels : enable read-only (operator) and read/write (manager) access on CLI and Web browser
management interfaces
Command authorization : leverages RADIUS to link a custom list of CLI commands to an individual network administrator's login;
also provides an audit trail
Secure Web GUI : provides a secure, easy-to-use graphical interface for configuring the module via HTTPS
Dual flash images : provide independent primary and secondary operating system files for backup while upgrading
Multiple configuration files : can be stored to the flash image

Overview
DA - 13795 Worldwide — Version 12 — November 12, 2013 Page 1

SNMPv1, v2c, and v3 : facilitate centralized discovery, monitoring, and secure management of networking devices
Remote monitoring (RMON): uses standard SNMP to monitor essential network functions; supports events, alarm, history, and
statistics group plus a private alarm extension group
IEEE 802.1AB Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP): automated device discovery protocol provides easy mapping by network
management applications
Management VLAN : segments traffic to and from management interfaces, including CLI/telnet, a Web browser interface, and
SNMP
Device Link Detection Protocol (DLDP): monitors a cable between two switches and shuts down the ports on both ends if the
cable is broken, this prevents network problems such as loops
Connectivity
Auto-MDIX : automatically adjusts for straight-through or crossover cables on all 10/100/1000 ports
Flow control : using standard IEEE 802.3x, it provides back pressure to reduce congestion in heavy traffic situations
Jumbo packet support : supports up to 10k byte frame size to improve performance of large data transfers
High-density port connectivity : provides up to 48 fixed 10/100/1000BASE-T ports in an entry-level static Layer 3 switch
Ethernet OAM : provides a Layer 2 link performance and fault detection monitoring tool, which reduces failover and network
convergence times
Power over Ethernet Plus (PoE+) support : provides 30 W power for connected devices, simplifies deployment, and dramatically
reduces installation costs by helping to eliminate the time and cost involved in supplying local power at each access point
location
IPv6 :
IPv6 Host: enables switches to be managed and deployed at the IPv6 network's edge
Dual stack (IPv4 and IPv6 using BIS): allows IPv4 hosts to communicate with IPv6 hosts
IPv6 ACL: for filtering IPv6 network traffic
Performance
Nonblocking architecture : up to 104 Gbps nonblocking switching fabric provides wire-speed switching with up to 77.4 million
pps throughput
Hardware-based wire-speed access control lists (ACLs): feature-rich ACL implementation (TCAM-based) helps ensure high
levels of security and ease of administration without impacting network performance
Resiliency and high availability
Separate data and control paths : increases security and performance
Spanning Tree/MSTP, RSTP : provides redundant links while preventing network loops
IEEE 802.3ad Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP): supports up to 26 trunks, each with 8 links per trunk; supports static or
dynamic groups
Smart link : allows 50 ms failover between links
Intelligent Resilient Framework (IRF): creates virtual resilient switching fabrics, where two or more switches perform as a
single Layer 2 switch and Layer 3 router; switches do not have to be co-located and can be part of a disaster-recovery system;
servers or switches can be attached using standard LACP for automatic load balancing and high availability; simplifies network
operation by eliminating the complexity of Spanning Tree Protocol, Equal-Cost Multipath (ECMP), or VRRP
Layer 2 switching
8K MAC address table : provides access to many Layer 2 devices
VLAN support and tagging : support IEEE 802.1Q with 4,094 simultaneous VLAN IDs

Static IP routing : provides manually configured routing for both IPv4 and IPv6 networks
Security
Access control lists (ACLs): provides IP Layer 2 to Layer 4 traffic filtering; supports global ACL, VLAN ACL, port ACL, and IPv6 ACL
Identity-driven security and access control :
Per-user ACLs: permits or denies user access to specific network resources based on user identity and time of day,
allowing multiple types of users on the same network to access specific network services without risk to network security
or unauthorized access to sensitive data
Automatic VLAN assignment: automatically assigns users to the appropriate VLAN based on their identities
Secure management access : securely encrypts all access methods (CLI, GUI, or MIB) through SSHv2, SSL, and/or SNMPv3
Secure FTP : allows secure file transfer to and from the switch; protects against unwanted file downloads or unauthorized
copying of a switch configuration file
Guest VLAN : similar to IEEE 802.1X, it provides a browser-based environment to authenticated clients
Port isolation : secures and adds privacy, and prevents malicious attackers from obtaining user information
