Description
Network Management and Security Features
The IE-2000-16PTC-G-NX Cisco IE-2000 18-Ports Manageable Layer 2 Ethernet Switch has several network management and security features that can be used to optimize the performance and security of the network:
- Network management: The switch can be managed remotely using Cisco’s Network Assistant (CNA) software, which provides an intuitive web-based interface for configuring and monitoring the switch. The switch also supports SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) for remote management and monitoring of switch performance and status.
- Access control: The switch supports Access Control Lists (ACLs) to restrict access to the switch based on IP address, MAC address, or other criteria. It also supports 802.1X for port-based network access control, which allows you to authenticate users and devices before granting them access to the network.
- VLANs: The switch supports VLANs (Virtual Local Area Networks) to segment the network into smaller, isolated segments, which can help to reduce the load on the switch and improve security.
- Remote management: The switch supports Telnet, SSH (Secure Shell) and SCP (Secure Copy Protocol) for remote management, providing secure encrypted connections for remote access to the switch.
- Security: The switch supports Cisco’s Identity Services Engine (ISE), which allows you to centrally manage and enforce network access policies based on user identity. It also supports Cisco’s TrustSec, which allows you to implement security policies based on the identity of devices and users, rather than their IP address.
- VPN: The switch supports Cisco’s FlexVPN, which allows you to implement VPN connections to the switch, providing secure remote access to the network.
- Malware protection: The switch supports Cisco’s Advanced Malware Protection (AMP) which can detect and block malicious traffic, including viruses, worms, and Trojans.
- Advanced threat protection: The switch supports Cisco’s Firepower Threat Defense (FTD) which provides advanced threat protection, including intrusion prevention, malware protection, and threat-focused NGFW capabilities.
Scalable and High-Performance
The IE-2000-16PTC-G-NX Cisco IE-2000 18-Ports Manageable Layer 2 Ethernet Switch is designed to provide scalable and high-performance network connectivity. Some of the features that contribute to this include:
- High-speed ports: The switch has 18 Gigabit Ethernet ports, which provide high-speed connectivity for devices and servers. This allows for large amounts of data to be transferred quickly and efficiently.
- Quality of Service (QoS): The switch supports Quality of Service (QoS) features, which allow you to prioritize different types of traffic, such as voice or video, to ensure that critical applications have the bandwidth they need.
- Link aggregation: The switch supports Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) and static link aggregation, which allows you to bundle multiple ports together to create a single, high-speed link. This can help to increase the overall bandwidth of the switch and provide redundancy in case of a port failure.
- Layer 2 switching: The switch operates at Layer 2 of the OSI model, which means it can forward data based on MAC addresses. This makes it more efficient than a router, which operates at Layer 3, which requires looking up IP addresses in a routing table.
- VLANs: The switch supports VLANs (Virtual Local Area Networks) which can be used to segment the network into smaller, isolated segments, which can help to reduce the load on the switch and improve security.
- High-performance switch fabric: The switch has a high-performance switch fabric that provides non-blocking, wire-speed performance. This means that the switch can forward data as fast as it can be received, without any delays.
- PoE: The switch also supports Power over Ethernet (PoE) which allows you to power devices such as IP phones, wireless access points, and cameras through the Ethernet cables. This eliminates the need for separate power supplies and can help to reduce the number of cables needed to connect devices.
Power Options and Redundancy
The Cisco IE-2000-16PTC-G-NX is an 18-port managed Layer 2 Ethernet switch that offers a variety of power options and redundancy features.
Power Options:
- AC Power Input: Supports 100 to 240V AC input voltage
- DC Power Input: Supports 18 to 36V DC input voltage
Redundancy Features:
- Redundant Power Supply: The switch supports the use of a redundant power supply for increased reliability.
- External Redundant Power System Support: The switch can be connected to an external redundant power system for even greater power redundancy.
These power options and redundancy features provide a high level of reliability for the switch, ensuring that it continues to operate even in the event of a power failure.
