Chapter 1 Overview
Software Features
•
An embedded Device Manager GUI for configuring and monitoring a single switch through a web
browser. For information about starting Device Manager, see the getting started guide. For more
information about Device Manager, see the switch online help.
• Cisco Network Assistant (referred to as Network Assistant ) for
–
Managing communities, which are device groups like clusters, except that they can contain
routers and access points and can be made more secure.
– Simplifying and minimizing switch, switch stack, and switch cluster management from
anywhere in your intranet.
–
Accomplishing multiple configuration tasks from a single graphical interface without needing
to remember command-line interface (CLI) commands to accomplish specific tasks.
– Interactive guide mode that guides you in configuring complex features such as VLANs, ACLs,
and quality of service (QoS).
–
Configuration wizards that prompt you to provide only the minimum required information to
configure complex features such as QoS priorities for video traffic, priority levels for data
applications, and security.
– Downloading an image to a switch.
–
Applying actions to multiple ports and multiple switches at the same time, such as VLAN and
QoS settings, inventory and statistic reports, link- and switch-level monitoring and
troubleshooting, and multiple switch software upgrades.
– Viewing a topology of interconnected devices to identify existing switch clusters and eligible
switches that can join a cluster and to identify link information between switches.
–
Monitoring real-time status of a switch or multiple switches from the LEDs on the front-panel
images. The system, redundant power system (RPS), system and port LED colors on the images
are similar to those used on the physical LEDs.
• Cisco StackWise Plus technology on Catalyst 3750-X switches for
–
Connecting up to nine switches through their StackWise Plus ports that operate as a single
switch or switch-router in the network.
– Creating a bidirectional 32-Gb/s switching fabric across the switch stack, with all stack
members having full access to the system bandwidth.
–
Using a single IP address and configuration file to manage the entire switch stack.
– Automatic Cisco IOS version-check of new stack members with the option to automatically load
images from the stack master or from a TFTP server.
–
Adding, removing, and replacing switches in the stack without disrupting the operation of the
stack.
– Provisioning a new member for a switch stack with the offline configuration feature. You can
configure in advance the interface configuration for a specific stack member number and for a
specific switch type of a new switch that is not part of the stack. The switch stack retains this
information across stack reloads whether or not the provisioned switch is part of the stack.
–
Displaying stack-ring activity statistics (the number of frames sent by each stack member to the
ring).
– Rolling stack upgrade to minimize network disruption when the members of a switch stack are
upgraded one at a time.

mixed switch stacks, see
