    HP FlexFabric technology

    Virtual Connect Flex-10/FlexFabric modules

    To this: Consolidated connectivity

    System deployment agility

    Move forward and deliver services

    Move from this: Fragmented connectivity

    Cross-infrastructure coordinationWait for everyone to finish their pieces

    Simplicity: reduce cables up to 94% without adding switchesAgility: change servers connection in minutes, not days Reduced Cost: buy 75% fewer Ethernet modules

    Classic vSwitch mode allows

    VM-to-VM traffic with localenforcement

    vSwitch in VEPA mode forcesall traffic to fully-capable edgefor fast, full policy enforcement.

    Proposed VEPA 802.1Qbg Edge Virtual BridgingEnables hairpin forwarding on a per-port basis when VEPA is directly attachedDefines a MultiChannel service to remote portsProvides for discovery and coordinated configuration of station embeddedcomponents
