HP-UX VLAN Features

HP-UX VLAN Features

Following are some of the features of HP-UX VLANs:

•HP-UX VLANs are implemented with host-based IEEE 802.1Q/p compliant tagging to allow conﬁguring multiple VLANs on a given Ethernet LAN card based on their IP-subnet, protocol, or LAN card port.

•HP VLANs are for use over fast Ethernet or gigabit Ethernet LAN cards running on HP-UX 11i (11.11) PA-RISC-based servers and workstations. HP-UX supports up to 1024 VLANS per LAN card port.

•HP-UX VLANs do not require you to rewrite applications, install new hardware, or recable. They are also compatible with HP MC/ServiceGuard as well as HP’s online addition and replacement (OLAR) capabilities.
