Cisco Catalyst Smart Operations
Cisco Catalyst Smart Operations are a comprehensive set of capabilities that simplify LAN deployment,
configuration, and troubleshooting. In addition to adaptive, always-on technologies such as StackWise-480 and
StackPower, Cisco Catalyst Smart Operations enable zero-touch installation and replacement of switches, fast
upgrade, and ease of troubleshooting with reduced operational cost. Cisco Catalyst Smart Operations are a set of
features that includes Smart Install, Auto Smartports, Smart Configuration and Smart Troubleshooting to enhance
operational excellence:
●
Cisco Smart Install is a transparent plug-and-play technology to configure the Cisco IOS Software image
and switch configuration without user intervention. Smart Install utilizes dynamic IP address allocation and
the assistance of other switches to facilitate installation, providing transparent network plug and play.
●
Cisco Auto Smartports provide automatic configuration as devices connect to the switch port, allowing
auto-detection and plug and play of the device onto the network.
●
Cisco Smart Troubleshooting is an extensive array of debug diagnostic commands and system health
checks within the switch, including Generic Online Diagnostics (GOLD) and Onboard Failure Logging
(OBFL).
●
Embedded Event Manager (EEM) is a powerful and flexible feature that provides real-time network event
detection and onboard automation. Using EEM, customers can adapt the behavior of their network devices
to align with their business needs. This feature requires the IP Base feature set.
Easy-to-Use Deployment and Control Features
●
User experience:
IP service-level agreements (SLAs) enable customers to assure new business-critical IP applications, as
well as IP services that utilize data, voice, and video, in an IP network. This feature requires the IP
Services feature set.
DHCP autoconfiguration of multiple switches through a boot server eases switch deployment.
