Clarifications

The following clarification or updates apply to documentation for the ProCurve Series 3500yl, 6200yl,

5400zl, and 8212zl Switches as of July 2008.

■ Maximum Number of VLANs Supported in Hardware for PIM-S — Page 4-5 in

the Multicast and Routing Guide dated January 2008 for switches running version K

software incorrectly states that up to 2048 flows are supported in hardware across a

maximum of 512 VLANs. Up to 2048 flows are supported across a maximum of 128 VLANs.

■ Maximum Number of Flows in the MRT — Page 4-41 in the Multicast and Routing Guide

dated January 2008 for switches running version K software incorrectly states that up to 1023

flows are supported. Up to 2048 flows are supported.

■ Enabling Jumbo Frames and Flow Control:

The Series 3500yl, 6200yl, 5400zl, and 8212zl switches support simultaneous use of Jumbo

Frames and Flow Control. (An earlier version of the Management and Configuration Guide

had incorrectly stated that these features could not be enabled at the same time.)

■ Clarification for the Number of IP addresses and maximum VLANs that can be

configured on the switch:

You can configure a maximum of 512 routed VLANs per switch. A VLAN can be configured with

up to 32 IP addresses. However, the maximum number of IP addresses that can be configured

on the switch is 2048, so it is not possible to configure up to the maximum number of routed

VLANs (512) with 32 IP addresses each. For example, if you wanted to use all available IP

addresses for the switch and utilize all 512 possible routed VLANS with as many assigned IP

addresses as possible, the configuration is calculated as follows:

512 routed VLANs x 4 IP addresses per VLAN = 2048 total IP addresses.

Refer to the Advanced Traffic Management Guide for further details.

■ TACACS+ Encryption Key Exclusion from TFTP Copies

When using the copy command to transfer a configuration to a TFTP server, any

server-specific or global encryption keys in the TACACS+ configuration will not be included

in the transferred file. Otherwise, a security breach could occur, allowing access to the

TACACS+ user name/password information.

■ RIP and OSPF Redistribution:

RIP operation supports static, connected, and OSPF route redistribution. OSPF operation

supports static, connected, and RIP route redistribution. (The earlier version of the Advanced

Traffic Management Guide omitted RIP and OSPF route redistribution.)
