Comprehensive Management
The Cisco Catalyst 4500 Series Supervisor Engine II-Plus features a single console port and a
single IP address to manage all features of the system. Remote in-band management is available
with SNMP, Telnet client, BOOTP, and Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP). Support for local or
remote out-of-band management is delivered through a terminal or modem attached to the
console interface. This supervisor engine delivers a comprehensive set of management tools to
provide the visibility and control required in the network. The supervisor engine can be managed
with CiscoWorks or Cisco Network Assistant. Cisco Catalyst switches can be configured and
managed to deliver end-to-end device, VLAN, traffic, and policy management. The LAN
management solution bundle offers tools such as CiscoWorks Resource Manager Essentials and
CiscoView. These Web-based management tools offer numerous services, including automated
inventory collection, software deployment, easy tracking of network changes, views into device
availability, and quick isolation of error conditions.
