Description
Advanced Security Features
The NM-16ESW-1GIG Cisco 16 Ports Ethernet Switch is designed to provide advanced security features to protect the network from various types of threats. Some of the key security features include:
- Access Control Lists (ACLs): The switch supports the use of ACLs to control access to the network. ACLs can be used to block or permit traffic based on a variety of criteria, such as source IP address or destination port.
- Network Admission Control (NAC): The switch supports NAC, which allows for the enforcement of security policies on devices that connect to the network. This can include checking for the presence of antivirus software and ensuring that devices comply with security policies.
- Secure Shell (SSH) and Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) : The switch supports SSH and SSL to provide secure remote management and access to the switch. This allows for secure remote management of the switch without the need for a virtual private network (VPN) connection.
- Virtual Private LAN Service (VPLS): The switch supports VPLS, which allows for the creation of virtual private networks over a shared infrastructure. This can be used to create a secure, private network for specific applications or users.
- IEEE 802.1X: The switch supports IEEE 802.1X, which is a standard for port-based network access control. This allows for the authentication of devices that connect to the network and the restriction of access to only authorized devices.
- Quality of Service (QoS): The switch supports QoS, which allows for the prioritization of network traffic. This can be used to ensure that critical applications receive the necessary bandwidth to function properly.
All these features work together to provide a high level of security to the network, protecting it from various types of threats and ensuring that only authorized devices have access to the network.
High Availability and Redundancy Options
The NM-16ESW-1GIG Cisco 16 Ports Ethernet Switch has several high availability and redundancy options to ensure that the network remains operational even in the event of a failure. One of these options is the use of Redundant Power Supply (RPS) which allows the switch to continue operating even if one of the power supplies fails. Another option is the use of Hot Standby Router Protocol (HSRP) which allows for the configuration of a redundant gateway. This allows for automatic failover in case the primary gateway becomes unavailable. Additionally, the switch also supports Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) which allows for the creation of link aggregation groups to increase the availability of the network connections.
Remote Management and Access
The NM-16ESW-1GIG Cisco 16 Ports Ethernet Switch offers several remote management and access options to help administrators manage and maintain the switch remotely. One of the options is the use of the Cisco Network Assistant (CNA) which is a software application that allows for the management of multiple Cisco devices from a single interface. Additionally, the switch can also be managed remotely through a web browser, using the Cisco IOS command-line interface (CLI) or Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP). The switch also supports Telnet and SSH for remote access and management, which provides secure and encrypted communication between the switch and the remote management device. It also has a support of SNMPv3 which gives enhanced security features like message integrity and encryption.
