Wondering how to get your HPE ProLiant Server up and running with improved security using industry standard interfaces?

Each HPE ProLiant Gen9 and Gen10 Server supports Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI). This industry standard is a set of interfaces between the system firmware, the operating system, and various components of the system firmware that deliver enhanced security benefits for the HPE Servers.

The HPE ProLiant system BIOS is a UEFI solution based on the latest UEFI Specification revisions. In addition, most HPE ProLiant Gen9 and Gen10 Server are UEFI Class 2 solution, supporting both Legacy BIOS boot and UEFI boot modes, providing users the flexibility to switch between modes. UEFI supports iLO RESTful API and is Redfish API conformant.

Do you need a quick and efficient method for the setup, configuration, and management of the storage controllers in your HPE ProLiant server?

HPE Smart Storage Administrator (HPE SSA) offers a single interface that quickly sets up, configures and manages the HPE Smart Arrays controllers and the HPE SAS Host Bus Adapters (HBA). With HPE SSA, you can also configure the cryptographic features of HPE Secure Encryption, enable HPE SSD Smart Path and create different optimization and priorities associated with the drives and controllers.

It replaces the HPE Array Configuration Utility (ACU), and has an updated design for HPE ProLiant servers that enhances the storage experience. It will expose new features and functionalities for various Smart Storage initiatives as they become available.

HPE IMC IPSec/VPN Manager (IVM) Software manages IPSec VPN set-up and traffic. It delivers a total VPN solution, which allows you to construct an IPSec VPN network and effectively monitor the operation and performance of it with a graphical VPN topology in real time to troubleshoot VPN issues quickly.

IMC IVM Software expedites IPSec VPN deployments with easy to use wizards to drive consistency among large scale deployments. It is also critical to deploying Dynamic VPNs by pushing VPN configurations in a consistent manner to reduce errors and accelerate deployment.

HPE IMC Remote Site Manager (RSM) Software is an HPE Intelligent Management Center (IMC) module that interacts with the hardware platform to deliver centralized management for branch networks regardless of their physical locations, presence of firewalls and Network Address Translations (NAT) devices.

In this model, IMC is deployed at the corporate headquarters and the IMC Remote Site Manager Software is deployed at branch networks, reducing the need for branch devices to support special protocols. IMC and IMC RSM communicate via either HTTP or HTTPS for higher security in your transmissions.

HPE Aruba Networking SSE is an integral part of a unified SASE framework, offering a modern approach to traditional network security technologies like firewalls, VPN gateway appliances, web gateway appliances, and more. With over 500 edge locations, HPE Aruba Networking SSE brings access as close to the user as possible, seamlessly connecting users, devices, and servers to essential business resources.

This cloud-delivered SSE platform feels effortlessly light and integrates four primary security solutions into one, managed through a single-pane-of-glass interface:

* Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) for private apps
* Secure Web Gateway (SWG) for web access
* Cloud Access Security Broker (CASB) for SaaS apps
* Digital Experience Monitoring (DEM) to help ensure user productivity

Embrace modern connectivity with enhanced security in a single, cloud-delivered solution and empower IT teams to control all user and application access, regardless of location, device, or network.

The HPE Intelligent Management Center (IMC) Basic Software Platform is a network management, software tool with unified resource and device management providing a lower total cost of ownership. The platform is designed for small- to medium-sized businesses with small network environments that need a single display screen to show their network infrastructures. It also provides information for trend analysis and capacity planning.
The Intelligent Management Center (IMC) Basic Software Platform supports Hewlett Packard Enterprise and third-party devices and has a fixed-device limit of 50 nodes.

HPE Intelligent Management Center (IMC) Software, with the optional HPE IMC Virtual Application Networking Fabric Manager Software, includes added functionality called HPE FlexFabric Network Analytics. When HPE FlexFabric Network Analytics is combined with the HPE FlexFabric 5940 or 5950 Switch it delivers real time visibility of microburst network congestion which negatively impacts overall network operations and performance.
Microbursts last only for sub seconds making its detection difficult by today’s network monitoring tools such as SNMP. HPE FlexFabric Network Analytics enables the network operator to pinpoint these microburst congestion points and their sources. This gives the network operator granular visibility into these spontaneous congestion points. With this information operators will be able to analyze in more detail their network configuration and make the necessary adjustments as needed for optimal network performance.
