New networking challenges need new solutions

To thrive in today’s rapidly changing business environment, your network no longer is just about connectivity. New applications and use models – as well as 24x7 business needs – have resulted in more stringent demands placed on network infrastructures. In addition, IT staffs are under pressure to lower costs and increase efficiencies. Networks that reduce complexity ensure deployment and management effectiveness.

ProCurve's unified core-to-edge strategy bring together network infrastructure, management and support to radically simplify and streamline operations. These tools also provide organizations the flexibility they need to adapt to change and take advantage of its opportunities.

Unified Core to Edge: ProCurve has the tools
ProCurve’s core-to-edge approach unifies network technology, infrastructure, software, operation, management and support.
The new 8212zl core switch completes a solution of standards-based platform technologies that includes the Switch 6200yl, 5400zl and 3500yl Series. Together, these offerings deliver lower cost of ownership and reduced complexity by using common technology, accessories, software and management tools – all with ProCurve’s lifetime warranty.

ProCurve Networking offers a complete portfolio of network platforms that leverage its ProVision ASIC family architecture, developed by ProCurve in collaboration with HP Labs and leveraging more than 25 years of networking innovation and technology development. The ProVision ASIC family provides advanced protocols, security capabilities and programmability in a highly integrated architecture. The result is predictable performance and behavior across the network.

Comprehensive network management integration
Comprehensive network management integration
ProCurve’s common network management solution is based on ProCurve Manager Plus, a secure, advanced Windows-based network management tool. It allows administrators to configure, update, monitor and troubleshoot ProCurve devices centrally and efficiently. PCM+ also can be enhanced with plug-in modules, such as Identity Driven Manager, to provide additional mobility, security and convergence management capabilities. (A free downloadable version of basic ProCurve Manager also is available.)

  • Common components and accessories
    The 8212zl core switch and 5400zl intelligent EDGE switches utilize common interface modules and power supplies to provide customers enhanced flexibility and reduced cost of maintenance through component sparing.

  • Unified Wired and Wireless management
    The new ProCurve Wireless Edge zl Services Module (WESM) enables a 5400zl or 8212zl to host centralized, unified wired and wireless solution with secure dynamic access control and efficient configuration management.

  • Flexible standards-based network features
    ProCurve’s focus on open standards means consistent operation across the network, flexible platform deployment options, seamless interoperation and integration into pre-existing networks.

  • Common tools for management
    A common set of device management tools across the range of switch platforms, including a common software image. This delivers more efficient, productive and reliable network administration and maintenance.

  • Proactive security across infrastructure
    ProCurve ProActive Defense is a comprehensive security strategy for automating protection, detection and response in a trusted network infrastructure. Its ability to work across wired and wireless networks reduces complexity.

  • Unified Support
    By providing a lifetime warranty, software updates and support across the network infrastructure, ProCurve radically reduces ongoing support maintenance complexity. That simplifies support budgeting activities and lowers overall costs over the life of the solution.
