HP 3600 SI Switch Series
Fixed Port L3 Managed Ethernet Switches

Features & Benefits:

Resilient Basic Layer 3 Fast Ethernet Access Layer Switches

• The HP 3600 SI Switch Series delivers resiliency, security, and reliability at the enterprise edge.
• The 3600 SI Switch Series comes with 24 or 48 ports switching at 10/100 and 4 SFP Gigabit Ethernet ports for stacking and uplinks and up to 720 W of PoE+ power with external EPS/RPS.
• The HP Intelligent Resilient Fabric (IRF) virtualizes up to nine physical switches into one logical device for simpler, flatter, and more agile networks.
• Basic Layer 3 features include support for static and RIP routing.
• Limited Lifetime Warranty 2.0 with 3 years 24x7 phone support and no software licensing required.

Enhanced Quality of Service (QoS)

• The HP 3600 SI Switch Series supports advanced, classifier-based QoS which directs traffic using multiple match criteria based on Layer 2, 3, and 4 information. These switches apply QoS policies such as setting priority level and rate limit to selected traffic on a per-port or per-VLAN basis.
• Provides traffic prioritization with congestion actions: strict priority (SP), weighted round robin (WRR), weighted fair queuing (WFQ), and weighted random early discard (WRED).

Integrated and Distributed Security Enforcement

• The HP 3600 SI Switch Series supports flexible authentication methods including 802.1X, and MAC and Web for greater, policy-driven application security.
• Identity-driven security and access control with automatic VLAN assignment and per-user ACLs allows access to specific network services without risking network security.
• Security features include: IP source guard, STP BPDU port protection, and RADIUS/HWTACACS.

Single View of the Network

• The HP 3600 SI Switch Series can be seamlessly managed with the optional HP Intelligent Management Center (IMC) Software Platform to provide end-to-end network transparency with consistent network experience through comprehensive configuration, compliance and policy management.
• RMON and sFlow provides advanced monitoring and reporting capabilities for statistics, history, alarms, and events.
