●
Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) Snooping for IPv4 and IPv6 MLD v1 and v2
Snooping provide fast client joins and leaves of multicast streams and limit bandwidth-
intensive video traffic to only the requestors.
●
Multicast VLAN Registration (MVR) continuously sends multicast streams in a multicast
VLAN while isolating the streams from subscriber VLANs for bandwidth and security
reasons.
●
Per-port broadcast, multicast, and unicast storm control prevents faulty end stations from
degrading overall systems performance.
●
Voice VLAN simplifies telephony installations by keeping voice traffic on a separate VLAN
for easier administration and troubleshooting.
●
Cisco VLAN Trunking Protocol (VTP) supports dynamic VLANs and dynamic trunk
configuration across all switches.
●
Remote Switch Port Analyzer (RSPAN) allows administrators to remotely monitor ports in a
Layer 2 switch network from any other switch in the same network.
●
For enhanced traffic management, monitoring, and analysis, the Embedded Remote
Monitoring (RMON) software agent supports four RMON groups (history, statistics, alarms,
and events).
●
Layer 2 traceroute eases troubleshooting by identifying the physical path that a packet
takes from source to destination.
●
Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP) reduces the cost of administering software upgrades
by downloading from a centralized location.
●
Network Timing Protocol (NTP) provides an accurate and consistent timestamp to all
intranet switches.
●
Multifunction LEDs per port for port status; half-duplex and full-duplex mode; and 10BASE-
T, 100BASE-TX, and 1000BASE-T indication as well as switch-level status LEDs for
system, redundant-power supply, and bandwidth utilization provide a comprehensive and
convenient visual management system.
●
Jumbo frames (9216 bytes) are available on the 10/100/1000 configurations for advanced
data and video applications requiring very large frames.
Network Management Tools
The Cisco Catalyst 3560-E Series offers both a superior command-line interface (CLI) for detailed
configuration and Cisco Network Assistant software, a PC-based tool for quick configuration based
on preset templates. In addition, CiscoWorks LAN Management Solution (LMS) supports the Cisco
Catalyst 3560-E Series for networkwide management.
Cisco Network Assistant
A PC-based network management application designed for small and medium-sized business
(SMB) networks with up to 250 users, Cisco Network Assistant offers centralized network
management and configuration capabilities. Cisco Network Assistant uses Cisco Smartports
technology to simplify both initial deployment and ongoing maintenance. This application also
features an intuitive GUI where users can easily apply common services across Cisco switches,
routers, and access points, such as:
●
Configuration management
●
Troubleshooting advice
