Description
Network Optimization Technologies
The HPE FlexFabric 10GB 2-Port 554FLR-SFP+ Adapter is designed to provide businesses with a range of network optimization technologies that can help improve network performance and reliability.
One of these technologies is the adapter’s support for hardware-based TCP/IP offloading. TCP/IP offloading enables the adapter to handle some of the processing required for TCP/IP communications, reducing the workload on the server’s CPU and improving overall network performance.
Another optimization technology provided by the HPE FlexFabric 10GB 2-Port 554FLR-SFP+ Adapter is support for jumbo frames. Jumbo frames are larger than standard Ethernet frames, which can help reduce network overhead and improve network throughput in certain scenarios, such as when transferring large files.
The adapter also includes support for Quality of Service (QoS) and traffic shaping technologies. These features enable administrators to prioritize network traffic based on its importance or the requirements of specific applications, ensuring that critical traffic is given higher priority and that bandwidth is allocated appropriately.
In addition, the HPE FlexFabric 10GB 2-Port 554FLR-SFP+ Adapter includes support for hardware-based VLAN tagging and link aggregation, which can help improve network performance by enabling administrators to group network ports together and distribute network traffic across them.
Empowering Network Administrators
The HPE FlexFabric 10GB 2-Port 554FLR-SFP+ Adapter is designed to empower network administrators by providing them with a range of features and tools to help them manage their network infrastructure more effectively.
One of the ways in which the adapter empowers network administrators is through support for remote network management. The adapter includes support for remote management protocols such as Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) and Remote Direct Memory Access (RDMA), enabling administrators to manage network devices from a central location.
The adapter also includes support for HPE Virtual Connect Flex-10/10D technology, which enables administrators to manage network connectivity at the virtual machine level. This can help simplify network management and reduce administrative overheads, while also providing greater flexibility in managing network resources.
Another way in which the HPE FlexFabric 10GB 2-Port 554FLR-SFP+ Adapter empowers network administrators is through support for advanced diagnostic and troubleshooting tools. The adapter includes support for Virtual Cable Tester (VCT) and Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP), which can help administrators diagnose and resolve network connectivity issues more quickly and effectively.
In addition, the HPE FlexFabric 10GB 2-Port 554FLR-SFP+ Adapter includes support for firmware upgrades and driver updates, enabling administrators to easily update the adapter’s software to take advantage of new features or fix known issues.
Advanced Network Security
The HPE FlexFabric 10GB 2-Port 554FLR-SFP+ Adapter provides advanced network security features that can help protect business networks from various security threats.
One of the key security features provided by the adapter is support for network segmentation through hardware-based VLAN tagging. This feature enables administrators to logically divide their network into separate segments, reducing the risk of unauthorized access to sensitive data.
The adapter also includes support for stateless offloads and stateful offloads, which can help improve network security by offloading some of the processing required for network security functions such as IPsec, SSL/TLS, and TCP/IP checksum calculations. This can help reduce the workload on the server’s CPU and improve overall network performance while maintaining network security.
Another important security feature provided by the HPE FlexFabric 10GB 2-Port 554FLR-SFP+ Adapter is support for network virtualization through HPE Virtual Connect Flex-10/10D technology. This feature enables administrators to isolate virtual machines and their network traffic from other virtual machines, providing an additional layer of security for virtualized environments.
The adapter also includes support for Network Address Translation (NAT), which can help protect business networks from external threats by hiding the IP addresses of internal devices from external networks.
Finally, the HPE FlexFabric 10GB 2-Port 554FLR-SFP+ Adapter includes support for secure boot, which helps ensure that the adapter’s firmware and software are not tampered with, reducing the risk of unauthorized access to network resources.
