Hi, 

I am trying to find line card spec's for the 10500 chassi range. I have built the chassis and basic spec via Iris, and have found the LPM through put etc, but l am looking for PDF that show me the what the line cards spec's are.

Can some one point me on the right direction, as l have been unable to find this to date.

Line cards information l am looking for is -

JC616A   JC621A JC623A JC630A

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Best regards, 

James

might be wrong, contact HP, they should know better...

Thanks Michael, did you get this on the H3C website or HP?

I need to try and reference a few other cards in the 10500, to replace Cisco 6509-E & V type chassis blades.  

I have obtained some information, but this only informs you of the table sizes per line card and not what the overall spec's of the line card are.

If you have a friendly HP representative, he might give you the  "HP A10500 Switch Family Technical Product Guide", which will answer you every question you have about that switch. (No, I don´t have that one)

Cheers. Be there done that, short answer was they do not have specifc's for line cards just the overall chassis.

This is that I don´t like about HP, it´s information politics.

Ask again.They might not know, but there are infos about specific line cards for all modular switches very well. And yes they are even in english, e.g.

And if they don´t we will eaily find another switching platform for you serving your needs. So, please give some infos:

- budget:

- access/distribution/core/datacenter switch?

- amount of 10Gbe ports?

- amount of 1Gbe ports?

- dual fabric?

- Amount of virtual routing instances?

- which unicast/multicast routing support within routing instances?

- integrated NAT?

- integrated stateful firewall?

- integrated IDS?

- integrated IPv6 firewall?

- routing table size (IPv4)?

- routing table size (IPv6)?

- IPv4 routing? BGP, ISIS, OSPF, RIP, static?

- IPv6 routing? BGP, ISIS, OSPF, RIP, static?

- multicast: PIM-DM, PIM-SM, PIM-SSM?

- IPv6 multicast: PIM-DM, PIM-SM, PIM-SSM?

- MPLS?

- VPLS?

- Running VPLS over GRE tunnels?

- VXLAN?

- TRILL?

- SPB?

- ...?

Thanks MIchael.

Budget is to replace a Cisco 6509-E.

Line cards are -

8 port 10Gb (8 ports total per chassis)

24 port SFP Gb (48 ports total per chassis)

48 port RJ45 Gb (96 ports total per chassis)

Integrated FW module in chassis 

4 chassis's in Total

OSPF routing

126k IPV4 routes (going by MPS spec's)

2 core chassis, 2 distribution

Well, that integrated firewall module is kind of a problem. Is there a reason why you don´t buy 6509-E? Especially on refurbished marked, prices on all mentioned modules you mentioned cannot actually be beaten.

Needless to say that up to today, I have never seen a A10500 plus its module being sold at the usual shops selling refurbished hardware. (If you know on, please tell me about it, Haven´t seen actually "HP RENEW" chassis based switches so far)

You could do a single 4 chassis IRF configuration too, if that was appropriate to the environment.
