HP ProCurve 2910al-24G-PoE+ Switch (J9146A) and NTA 3.5 compatibility?

Hi there,

We're planning on the purchase of the mentioned HP Switch. As far as the sFlow-compatibility, the specsheet mentions "RFC 3176 sFlow". As fas as I know, RFC 3176 defines sFlow version 2 to 4, and SolarWinds Sales tell me that NTA only support sFlow v5.

What can anyone tell on the sFlow-compatibility of this HP Switch range? Will it work with NTA?

For the record, this is the link to the specs: www.procurve.com/.../overview.htm.

Thanks in advance!

Regards, Rene

Actually, if you do a search for sFlow v5 in the document, you will find the following HP ProCurve Switch models do support sFlow v5:

3500yl, 5400zl, 6200yl, 6600, 8212zl

Also, I'm not sure how updated that matrix is. I would ask your HP rep which of there switch models support sFlow v5 to be sure.

In the meantime, I'm going to add this as a feature request so we can investigate what it would take to add sFlow v2 and v4 support moving forward.

Thanks,

-Chris

According to this feature matrix, the 2910al Switch does not support sFlow v5.

Thanks, Chris!

According to that same matrix, there is not a ProCurve that supports sFlow v5, as I see it. Of course I understand that SolarWinds only mentions protocols that are supported, and not brands & types, but do you (or anyone) know of HP switches that are correctly supported by NTA?

Thanks in advance, regards,

Rene

OK, Chris, great!

Add that feature request for me please, and I will ask our HP sales to advise about a switch that support sFlow 5.

You can close this post now, if you like; I think my questions have been answered.
