New update to ProCurve 6120 series switches.

From Steve on the ProCurve 6120 blade switch family:

 

*******************************************

 

Ladies and Gentlemen,

 

The latest FW update (Z 14.22) to the ProCurve 6120 series switches has been released.

 

Among the new features is the support for CEE (Converged Enhanced Ethernet) on the 6120XG when used in conjunction with the new G7 servers or the just released NC551 Flex Fabric Adapter.  The CEE feature requires the purchase of the CEE Upgrade License - PN 608074-B21.  

Other new features on both switches include support for Uplink Failure Detection, sFlow and enhanced QoS and Routing.  The 6120XG now also supports Cut-Thru mode at 10Gb, that lowers intra-switch latency   to 1.5uS.
