Benefit
• Layer 2 traceroute eases troubleshooting by identifying the physical path that a
packet takes from source to destination.
• All 9 RMON groups are supported through a SPAN port, which permits traffic
monitoring of a single port, a group of ports, or the entire stack from a single
network analyzer or RMON probe.
• Domain Name Services (DNS) provide IP address resolution with user-defined
device names.
• 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.
• SPAN works across all the ports in a stack.
• Cisco CMS Software provides an easy-to-use, Web-based management interface
through a standard Web browser.
• Cisco AVVID (Architecture for Voice, Video and Integrated Data) wizards need just
a few user inputs to automatically configure the switch to optimally handle
different types of traffic: voice, video, multicast, and high-priority data.
• A security wizard is provided to restrict unauthorized access to applications,
servers, and networks.
• Cisco CMS Software allows management of up to 16 interconnected Cisco
Catalyst 3750, 3550, 2950, 2950 LRE, 3500 XL, 2900 XL, 2900 LRE XL, and 1900
switches through a single IP address, without the limitation of being physically
located in the same wiring closet. Full backward compatibility helps ensure any
combination of the above switches can be managed with a Cisco Catalyst 3750
Series switch.
• The cluster software upgrade feature allows one-click software upgrade across an
entire cluster of Cisco Catalyst 3750, 3550, 2950, 2950 LRE, 3500 XL, 2900 XL,
2900 LRE XL, and 1900 switches. Configuration cloning enables rapid deployment
of networks. The master switch automatically upgrades each stack.
• Cisco CMS Software has been extended to include multilayer feature
configurations such as routing protocols, ACLs, and QoS parameters.
• Cisco Clustering now supports member discovery and cluster creation across a
single Cisco Catalyst 3750 Series switch routed hop, enabling the entire LAN to be
managed through a single Web interface (and with a single IP address, if desired).
• Cisco CMS Software Guide Mode assists in the configuration of powerful
advanced features by providing step-by-step instructions.
• Cisco CMS Software provides enhanced online help for context-sensitive
assistance.
• The easy-to-use graphical interface provides both a topology map and front-panel
view of the cluster and stacks.
• Multidevice and multiport configuration capabilities allow administrators to save
time by configuring features across multiple switches and ports simultaneously.
• Web-based management for a Cisco Aironet Wireless Access Point is launched
by clicking the relevant icon in the topology map.
