Table 1 Product Features and Benefits
Feature | 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 |
| 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; |
| |
| LEDs for system, |
| comprehensive and convenient visual management system. |
| • SPAN works across all the ports in a stack. |

Cisco CMS Software | • Cisco CMS Software provides an |
| 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 |
| • 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 |
| 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 |
| • Cisco CMS Software provides enhanced online help for |
| assistance. |
| • The |
| 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. |
| • |
| by clicking the relevant icon in the topology map. |
