Management & Protocols

Management:     The Supervisor Engine 720 provides a comprehensive set of management tools to provide the required visibility and control in the network:

Console management: Provides shared interface to the Supervisor Engine 720 and the Multilayer Switch Feature Card 3 (MSFC3) available out-of-band from a local terminal or remote terminal connected through a modem to the console or auxiliary interface

In-band management: Provides shared interface to the Supervisor Engine 720 and the MSFC3 available in-band via SNMP, Telnet client, Bootstrap Protocol (BOOTP), and Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP)

Switched Port Analyzer (SPAN): Allows management and monitoring of switch traffic

Remote Switched Port Analyzer (RSPAN): Allows centralized management and monitoring by aggregating and directing traffic from multiple distributed hosts and switches to a remotely located switch via trunk link

VLAN access-control-list (VACL) capture: Directs traffic to a network-analysis or intrusion-detection port via an ACL

System Requirements:     The Supervisor Engine 720 can be used with one of the following operating systems:

Cisco IOS Software for the supervisor engine

Hybrid: Catalyst OS and Cisco IOS Software for the MSFC 

 

Supervisor Engine 720 Requirements:

The Supervisor Engine 720 cannot be installed in the Catalyst 6000 Series switches

The Supervisor Engine 720 must be installed in slots 1 or 2 in 3-slot chassis, slots 5 or 6 in 6-slot and 9-slot chassis, and slots 7 or 8 in a 13-slot chassis

The Supervisor Engine 720 requires the installation of a variable-speed fan tray and a 2500 W (minimum) power supply in the chassis
