The innovative features of HPE Networking products are now available in a 1Gb blade switch designed exclusively for the c-Class BladeSystem enclosure. The HPE 6125G is designed specifically for budget-conscious customers who require 1Gb switching and routing. HPE 6125G basic functionality includes the resiliency of IRF (intelligent Resilient Networking) stacking and the stability of Comware features previously only available on much higher end switching products. With sixteen 1Gb downlink (server) ports, up to eight 1Gb uplink ports, up to two 10Gb IRF stacking ports, and one 10Gb cross-link port, the HPE 6125G reduces costs while increasing datacenter efficiency and capability. Using IRF, HPE 6125G and HPE 6125G/XG switches can be combined together at the enclosure, rack or datacenter level into a single virtual switch and managed through a single IP address for powerful mixed bandwidth applications. The HPE resilient Comware operating system provides a common level of features, service and security levels from edge to core. And all network elements can be managed through IMC (Intelligent Management Center) providing comprehensive single pane provisioning of the entire network. The HPE 6125G is perfect for remote office applications, clustering, virtual machine applications or wherever IPv6, full layer 3 routing and distributed trunking are required for 1Gb applications. If you're looking for a switch that provides ample performance at a low cost, the 6125G is the optimal choice for any data center

Advanced classifier-based QoS - classifies traffic using multiple match criteria based on Layer 2, 3 and 4 information; applies QoS policies such as priority level and rate limit to selected traffic on a per-port or per-VLAN basis
Traffic policing - supports Committed Access Rate (CAR) and line rate. Powerful QoS feature - creates traffic classes based on access control lists (ACL), IEEE 802.1p precedence, IP, DSCP or Type of Service (ToS) precedence; supports filter, redirect, mirror or remark; supports the following congestion actions: strict priority (SP) queuing, weighted round robin (WRR), weighted fair queuing (WFQ), and weighted random early discard (WRED) Storm restraint - allows limitation of broadcast, multicast, and unknown unicast traffic rate to cut down on unwanted broadcast traffic on the network.
-
Intelligent Resilient Fabric (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 Spanning Tree, ECMP and VRRP
Device Link Detection Protocol (DLDP) - Monitors Link connectivity and shuts down ports at both ends if unidirectional traffic is detected. Rapid Ring Protection Protocol (RRPP) - Connects multiple switches in a high-performance ring using standard Ethernet technology; traffic can be rerouted around the ring in less than 50 ms upon failure. Smart Link - Allows 50 ms failover between links, Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP).
-
OAM (802.3ah) - Detects data link layer problems in the "last mile"; monitors link status between two devices, CFD (802.1ag) - Connectivity Fault Detection (CFD) provides L2 link OAM mechanism used for link connectivity detection and fault location Mirroring - Port mirroring enables traffic on a port to be simultaneously sent to a network analyzer for monitoring; Flow-based mirroring, sFlow.
