●
Cisco IOS Software CLI support provides a user interface and command set in common
with all Cisco routers and Cisco Catalyst desktop switches.
●
Cisco Service Assurance Agent (SAA) support facilitates service-level management
throughout the LAN.
●
VLAN trunks can be created from any port, using either standards-based IEEE 802.1Q
tagging or the Cisco Inter-Switch Link (ISL) VLAN architecture.
●
Up to 1005 VLANs per switch and up to 128 spanning-tree instances per switch are
supported.
●
4096 VLAN IDs are supported.
●
Cisco VTP supports dynamic VLANs and dynamic trunk configuration across all
switches.
●
IGMP snooping provides fast client joins and leaves of multicast streams and limits
bandwidth-intensive video traffic to only the requestors.
●
Remote SPAN (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.
●
All four RMON groups are supported through a SPAN port, which permits traffic
monitoring of a single port, a group of ports from a single network analyzer, or an RMON
probe.
●
The Domain Name System (DNS) provides IP address resolution with user-defined
device names.
●
Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP) reduces the cost of administering software
upgrades by enabling downloading from a centralized location.
●
Network Time Protocol (NTP) provides an accurate and consistent timestamp for all
intranet switches.
●
Multifunction LEDs are provided per port to show port status, and switch-level status
LEDs are provided for the system.
Cisco Device Manager Cisco Device Manager simplifies initial configuration of a switch through a Web browser.
The Web interface enables less-skilled personnel to quickly and simply set up switches,
thereby reducing the cost of deployment.
Cisco Network Assistant A PC-based network management application designed for server administrators in small to
medium-sized data centers, Cisco Network Assistant offers centralized network
management and configuration capabilities. This application also features an intuitive GUI
where users can easily apply common services across Cisco switches and routers, such as
the following:
●
Configuration management
●
Troubleshooting advice
●
Inventory reports
●
Event notification
●
Network security settings
●
Password synchronization
●
Drag-and-drop Cisco IOS Software upgrades
●
Secure wireless

CiscoWorks support
●
CiscoWorks network management software provides management capabilities on a
per-port and per-switch basis, providing a common management interface for Cisco
routers, switches, and hubs.
●
SNMPv1, v2c, and v3 and Telnet interface support delivers comprehensive in-band
management, and a CLI-based management console provides detailed out-of-band
management.
●
Cisco Discovery Protocol Versions 1 and 2 enable a CiscoWorks network management
station for automatic switch discovery.
