Description
Network Protocol Support
The 817737-B21 HPE Ethernet 10Gbps Dual-Ports 562t Adapter supports various network protocols, which are sets of rules and standards that govern the communication between devices on a network. These protocols define the format and structure of data packets that are transmitted and received over the network.
Some of the network protocols supported by the 817737-B21 HPE network adapter include:
- TCP/IP: The Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol is a set of protocols that govern the communication between devices on the internet and other networks. TCP/IP is the most widely used protocol suite for internet communication, and it is supported by a wide range of operating systems and devices.
- UDP: The User Datagram Protocol is a connectionless protocol that enables the transmission of datagrams over IP networks. UDP is used for applications that require low-latency and high-speed data transmission, such as video streaming and online gaming.
- iSCSI: The Internet Small Computer System Interface is a protocol that enables the transfer of SCSI commands and data over IP networks. iSCSI is commonly used for storage area networks (SANs), which are networks that provide access to centralized storage resources.
- VLAN tagging: The IEEE 802.1Q standard defines a protocol for tagging Ethernet frames with VLAN (virtual LAN) information. VLAN tagging enables the segmentation of network traffic into different virtual networks, improving network performance and security.
- Jumbo frames: Jumbo frames are Ethernet frames that exceed the standard size of 1518 bytes. The 817737-B21 HPE network adapter supports jumbo frames up to 9.6 KB, which can improve network performance by reducing the number of frames that need to be transmitted.
The support for various network protocols by the 817737-B21 HPE network adapter makes it a versatile solution for a wide range of applications and use cases, including data storage, video streaming, and online gaming. The adapter’s compatibility with TCP/IP, UDP, iSCSI, VLAN tagging, and jumbo frames, among other protocols, ensures reliable and efficient network communication.
Power Consumption
The 817737-B21 HPE Ethernet 10Gbps Dual-Ports 562t Adapter is designed to operate efficiently with low power consumption, making it suitable for use in modern data centers that require energy-efficient solutions. The maximum power consumption of the network adapter is 12.1 watts, which is relatively low compared to other network adapters with similar specifications.
The low power consumption of the 817737-B21 HPE network adapter is achieved through several features, including:
- Energy-efficient Ethernet (EEE): The network adapter supports EEE, which is a standard that enables the reduction of power consumption during periods of low network activity. With EEE, the adapter can reduce its power consumption by up to 50% during periods of low traffic, resulting in significant energy savings.
- Wake-on-LAN (WoL): The network adapter supports WoL, which is a feature that enables a computer to be powered on remotely over the network. With WoL, the network adapter can remain in a low-power state while still being able to receive wake-up signals from the network, reducing power consumption when the computer is not in use.
- Intelligent power management: The network adapter features intelligent power management capabilities, which enable it to dynamically adjust its power consumption based on the network traffic load and other factors. This ensures that the adapter uses only the power it needs to maintain optimal network performance.
The low power consumption of the 817737-B21 HPE network adapter makes it an energy-efficient solution for modern data centers and enterprise networks. The support for EEE, WoL, and intelligent power management ensures that the adapter consumes only the necessary power, resulting in lower energy costs and reduced carbon footprint.
Network Management and Configuration
The 817737-B21 HPE Ethernet 10Gbps Dual-Ports 562t Adapter supports a range of network management and configuration options, which enable IT administrators to monitor and control network traffic and optimize network performance. Some of the key network management and configuration features of the adapter include:
- HPE Smart Update Manager: The adapter can be managed using the HPE Smart Update Manager, which is a software utility that enables administrators to update and configure network adapters, servers, and other HPE devices from a single console.
- HPE System Management Homepage: The adapter can be monitored using the HPE System Management Homepage, which provides detailed information about the adapter’s status, configuration, and performance.
- HPE OneView: The adapter can be managed using HPE OneView, which is a software-defined infrastructure management platform that provides a unified view of servers, storage, and networking devices in the data center.
- Network configuration utilities: The adapter comes with a range of configuration utilities, such as the HPE Ethernet 10Gb 2-port 562T Adapter Configuration Utility, which enable administrators to configure the adapter’s advanced features, such as VLAN tagging and Jumbo frames.
- Network monitoring and diagnostic tools: The adapter supports a range of network monitoring and diagnostic tools, such as the HPE Intelligent Management Center (IMC), which enables administrators to monitor network performance, troubleshoot issues, and optimize network traffic.
The 817737-B21 HPE network adapter provides a range of network management and configuration options, enabling administrators to monitor and control network traffic, optimize network performance, and troubleshoot issues efficiently. The support for various management tools and configuration utilities ensures that the adapter can be easily integrated into existing network infrastructures and managed efficiently from a single console.
