Security: Network security is enabled through a
wide range of authentication methods, data encryp-
tion technologies, and NAC based on users, ports,
and MAC addresses.
Availability: 802.1S/W enables standards-based
fault tolerance, load balancing, and rapid recovery;
Flexlink provides sub-100-millisecond conver-
gence; Per VLAN Spanning Tree Plus (PVST+)
increases available bandwidth by allowing traffic on
redundant links.

are achieved through advanced QoS, granular rate
limiting, access control lists (ACLs), and multicast
services.
Management: Cisco Network Assistant simplifies
configuration, upgrades, and troubleshooting.
Smartports enable fast and easy configuration
of Cisco Catalyst intelligent capabilities; express
setup is quick and easy using the Webpage inter-
face; resource templates help customize switch
resources for the application.
