HP ProCurve Routing Switch 9308M / 9304M Reviewer's Guide
These numbers have been generated by Hewlett-Packard, using two Ixia 1600 testers from Ixia Communications. Ixia testers
are used by a number of network testing houses and the press to determine performance numbers for networking equipment.
In these tests, 64 ports were used for Gigabit testing, 188 ports for 100 Mb testing.. All ports were full duplex. Numbers
presented here are condensed from Ixia reports in order to save space.
Testing done on the HP ProCurve Routing Switch 9308M. Percentage of throughput would be the same
for the 9304M, but at one-half the number of packets since the 9304M has on-half the number of ports
of the 9308M.
