    Greetings:
    We were considering to buy Aruba 6200F Layer 2+ switch JL728A#ABA 48 PORT and Layer 3 JL658A - 24 PORT and Layer 3 JL726A#ABA - 52 PORT.  Looks like our budget request may not get approved.  

    Question 1:
    Will Aruba Instant On 1930 48G Class4 PoE 4SFP/SFP+ 370W Switch (JL686A) meet the following requirements?

    Forwarding bandwidth    104 Gbps     
    Switching capacity    176 Gbps     
    Forwarding Rate            130.95 Mpps 
    Stacking bandwidth    80 Gbps  (Does it support stacking - if so how many units can be stacked)
    DRAM size    1 GB
    Flash size    512 MB
    sFlow support    Yes
    NetFlow support    Yes
    DHCP Snooping    Yes
    10Gbps uplink ports

    -Spanning Tree algorithm 
    -Broadcast limit
    -IP Multicast Filtering
    -VLAN support for Layer 2
    -VLAN Trunking using IEEE 802.1p/q. (Calling VOIP phone 802.1p tags the traffic with 
    priority tag 6(voice) and the layer 2 switch should preserve that tag and take it to the 
    root router (layer 3 switch) which will convert it to layer 3 DSCP tags. The firewall also 
    should support the 802.1p/q and DSCP tags)
    -LLDP support
    -LACP support
    -IPv6 Neighbor Discovery Protocol

    FYI - here is the network layout in two buildings - connecting via VPN

    Location 1:
    1  - Layer 3 switch 24 Port 10Gbps
    5  - Layer 2 switch 48 Port 1Gbps POE supporting 45 Ubiquiti U6-Wifi
    10 - Layer 2 switch 48 port 1Gbps non-POE

    Location 2:
    1 - Layer 3 switch 24 port 10Gbps
    3 - Layer 2 switch 24 port 1Gbps POE
    1 - Layer 2 switch 48 port 1Gbps POE - Supporting 24 Ubiquiti U6-Wifi
    1 - Layer 2 switch 48 port 1Gbps Non

    Question 2:
    What is the part numbers for 
    -Aruba Instant On 1930 48G Non POE
    -Aruba Instant On 1930 24G POE (is POE power 370W, Fwdg bandwid 104G, Switch Capacty 176G, FWD Rate 130Mpps)
    -Aruba Instant On 1930 24G Non POE

    Question 3:
    What will be Layer 3 equivalent in 1930 series for 6200F JL658A - 24 PORT and JL726A#ABA - 52 PORT

    Question 4:
    What kind of central management is being offered by HPE for 1930 series switches?

    Thanks!

    Hi Shah.

    1930 does not support stack.

    62xx series is Enterprise series of switches. InstantOn 1930 is SMB series. You can find all required data in switch datasheet https://www.arubainstanton.com/files/DS_AIO_1930SwitchSeries.pdf 

    InstantOn switches can be managed by local GUI or by InstantOn cloud portal.

    1930 is L2 only. You need to go to 1960 for some L3 capabilities and stacking.

    Best, Gorazd
