Network Security
To protect the availability of mission-critical applications—and keep
the business running—enterprises need comprehensive network
security, including automatic threat defense against viruses, worms
and denial-of-service attacks. Cisco blade switch modules protect
the HP BladeSystem with technologies for preventing unauthorized
network access, infection and attacks, including network admission
control (NAC), 802.1 enhancements, security access control lists
and server segmentation using virtual LANs (VLANs) to isolate
applications and users. In addition, management commands are
sent securely using Secure Shell (SSH) and SNMPv3.
Lower Capital and Operating Costs
Cisco blade switches cost less to acquire than comparable rack-
mount switches. Ongoing operational costs are lower, as well,
because of:
Reduced power consumption. Over three years, companies
using HP BladeSystem c-Class servers can save more than
$130,000 in power costs and more than $67,000 in cooling
expenses.

The source of the savings is HP Thermal Logic
technology, which automatically adjusts cooling, power and
processor speed based on real-time requirements.
Space savings. The HP BladeSystem c-Class requires 40% less
floor space than single-unit rack-mount servers.
Avoidance of business disruption. Fewer cables, power supplies
and fans mean fewer points of failure.
Lower annual support costs. A consolidated service and
warranty program for the HP BladeServer and blade switch
costs less than separate programs for each.

of operational use @ $0.10 kilowatts per hour.
Greater Agility Through Faster Capacity Expansion
After being wired just once, the HP BladeSystem enclosure can be
fully populated with additional blades in an average of less than
30 minutes. Faster capacity expansion helps businesses become
adaptive enterprises that can quickly deploy new applications in
response to new opportunities and changing business conditions.
Single-Vendor Support
Both the HP BladeSystem and Cisco blade switch modules are
supported through HP Consulting, Support, and Break/Fix Services,
simplifying upgrades as well as problem resolution. Just one phone
call initiates problem resolution, regardless of whether the source is
the server or switch.
