Description
Network Security
The HPE 394795-B21 2 Ports 1GBPS PCI-E Plug-in Card Network Adapter offers several features that help enhance network security. These include:
- VLAN tagging: The network adapter supports VLAN tagging, which allows the creation of virtual LANs. VLAN tagging provides additional security by isolating network traffic, which helps prevent unauthorized access and reduces the risk of network attacks.
- TCP/IP Offloading: The network adapter supports TCP/IP Offloading, which offloads TCP/IP processing from the CPU to the network adapter. This helps reduce the risk of denial of service (DoS) attacks by freeing up CPU resources that can be used to detect and respond to attacks.
- IPsec offloading: The network adapter also supports IPsec offloading, which offloads IPsec encryption and decryption from the CPU to the network adapter. This helps improve network security by reducing the risk of attacks that attempt to intercept and compromise network traffic.
- Network monitoring and management: The network adapter can be monitored and managed using tools such as SNMP and HP Systems Insight Manager. These tools provide real-time monitoring of network traffic, allowing administrators to detect and respond to network security threats quickly.
- Firmware updates: The network adapter firmware can be updated to address security vulnerabilities and bugs. Regular firmware updates help ensure that the network adapter is secure and free of known security issues.
Hardware and Software Requirements
To install and use the HPE 394795-B21 2 Ports 1GBPS PCI-E Plug-in Card Network Adapter, you will need to meet certain hardware and software requirements. Here are the minimum requirements:
- A desktop computer or server with an available PCI Express (PCIe) slot. The network adapter is compatible with PCIe 1.0a, 1.1, and 2.0 slots.
- An operating system that supports the network adapter. The HPE 394795-B21 is compatible with a wide range of operating systems, including Windows Server 2003, 2008, and 2012, Linux, and VMware ESX.
- Sufficient CPU and RAM to handle network traffic. While the network adapter itself offloads much of the network processing from the CPU, it still requires a certain level of CPU and memory resources to operate efficiently.
- Driver software for the network adapter. The network adapter comes with driver software that must be installed on the operating system to enable the adapter to function.
- Access to the internet or other network resources to download the latest drivers and firmware updates for the network adapter.
It is important to ensure that your system meets these requirements before installing the HPE 394795-B21 2 Ports 1GBPS PCI-E Plug-in Card Network Adapter to ensure proper operation and performance. Failure to meet these requirements may result in degraded network performance or other issues.
Introducing the High-Speed Performance
The HPE 394795-B21 2 Ports 1GBPS PCI-E Plug-in Card Network Adapter is designed to provide high-speed performance for modern networks. With a 1Gbps data transfer rate, the network adapter is capable of handling large amounts of network traffic quickly and efficiently.
The network adapter is also designed for low latency, which helps reduce delays in network traffic and improve overall network performance. This makes it an ideal choice for applications that require real-time data transfer, such as video streaming, voice over IP (VoIP), and online gaming.
In addition to its high-speed performance, the network adapter supports advanced features such as Quality of Service (QoS) and jumbo frames. QoS allows network administrators to prioritize network traffic, ensuring that critical data such as voice and video receive the necessary bandwidth for optimal performance. Jumbo frames enable the transfer of larger packets of data, reducing the amount of processing overhead required for each packet and improving overall network performance.
The network adapter is also designed for reliability, with features such as failover support and link aggregation. Failover support allows the network adapter to automatically switch to a backup network connection in the event of a primary connection failure, ensuring continuous network uptime. Link aggregation enables the use of multiple network adapters to increase bandwidth and provide redundancy, further improving network reliability and performance.
