Performance
Wire speed switching on sixteen internal 1Gb ports.
Wire Speed switching on eight external 10/100/1000BASE-T ports. (Two
of these ports can be used as cross-connects to provide failover protection).
Four external 10/100/1000 SFP based ports that can be configured in lieu
of the 10/100/1000Base-T ports to support Fiber SX SFP modules from
Cisco Systems.
One external console port.
Management
CiscoWorks Software that includes multi-layer feature configurations
such as routing protocols, ACLs, and QoS parameters.
IOS CLI support providing a common user interface and command set
with all Cisco routers and Cisco Catalyst desktop switches.
The Catalyst Blade Switch 3020 supports an embedded Remote Monitoring
(RMON) software agent for enhanced traffic management, monitoring
and analysis.
Security
VLAN - Virtual Local Area Network is a logical network topology
configured on top of a physical network topology which conserves
bandwidth and improves security by limiting traffic to specific groups
of devices.
Supports Cisco's Identity-Based Networking Services (IBNS) which
prevents unauthorized network access and insures that users get only
their designated privileges.
Compatible with Cisco Secure Access Control Server (ACS) so that user
security profiles and authentication follow the user regardless of where
they connect on the network.
Access Control Lists (ACL's) are maintained in hardware for maximum
performance and can be used to guard against denial-of-service and other
attacks.
