HP has unveiled new campus networking solutions and services that support a mobile-ready workplace at Interop Las Vegas. The solutions lay the foundation for simplified enterprise networks engineered for performance, security, visibility, and an optimised digital enterprise. Software-defined networking (SDN) capabilities allow IT professionals to easily administer network operations and troubleshoot, as well as enforce security policies in a rapid, simplified, agile manner.
The new HP 5400R zl2 Switch Series v3 modules are powered by the 6th generation HP Networking application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC), purpose built for the SDN era, allowing it to deliver more than four times the performance of competitive solutions1 and three times lower latency2. The 5400R v3 supports OpenFlow and can process up to 24 times more flows than its main competitor3.

The HP Network Visualizer SDN application provides IT administrators with real-time visibility of the network to monitor traffic flow to investigate issues. Administrators can easily identify user complaints without having to identify physical location or IP address. The increased visibility afforded by SDN technology allows for rapid diagnosis and repair of network issues, without requiring additional costly overlay appliances or probes.
In addition to network visibility challenges, more connected devices bring increased security risk. To help prevent malicious threats from entering the network via employee devices, HP announced enhancements to its HP Network Protector SDN application, which provides zero-touch dynamic threat protection at the edge of the network for securing BYOD. The application now includes intrusion prevention system-as-a-service, and provides consistent business level policy across the wired and wireless network.
HP also announced enhancements to its HP Network Optimizer SDN application, which offers automated provisioning of network policy and quality of service to ensure an enhanced user experience. The app now offers media path optimisation as well as dynamic traffic periodisation based on user or device.
HP is also introducing Visual Remote Guidance (VRG) which provides a unique and secure collaboration cloud service, connecting wearable computing with HP MyRoom. VRG enables you to see through remote eyes and convey procedures to guide remote hands. With real-time voice, video, and content sharing, issues can be resolved more quickly transforming the customer experience while reducing cost.
The HP 5400R zl2 Switch Series v3 Modules will be available4 May 1, 2015; pricing ranges from US$3,299 to US$6,799. The HP Network Visualizer SDN app will be available in June. HP Campus and SDN Services are available now, while HP Visual Remote Guidance will be available in July.
