Ease of Use and Ease of Deployment
• Auto-configuration eases deployment of switches in the network by automatically configuring multiple switches across
a network via a boot server.
• Auto-sensing on each non-GBIC port detects the speed of the attached device and automatically configures the port for
10-, 100-, or 1000-Mbps operation, easing the deployment of the switch in mixed 10, 100, and 1000BaseT environments.
• Auto-negotiating on all ports automatically selects half- or full-duplex transmission mode to optimize bandwidth.
• Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP) Versions 1 and 2 enable a CiscoWorks network management station to automatically
discover the switch in a network topology.
• Cisco VTP supports dynamic VLANs and dynamic trunk configuration across all switches.
• Support for dynamic VLAN assignment through implementation of VLAN Membership Policy Server (VMPS) client
functionality provides flexibility in assigning ports to VLANs.
• Dynamic Trunking Protocol (DTP) enables dynamic trunk configuration across all ports in the switch.
• Port Aggregation Protocol (PAgP) automates the creation of Cisco Fast EtherChannel® or Gigabit EtherChannel groups,
enabling linking to another switch, router, or server.
• IEEE 802.3z-compliant 1000BaseSX, 1000BaseLX/LH, 1000BaseZX, and 1000BaseT physical interface support
through a field-replaceable GBIC module provides customers unprecedented flexibility in switch deployment.
• The default configuration stored in Flash ensures that the switch can be quickly connected to the network and can pass
traffic with minimal user intervention.
• The switches support non-standard Ethernet frame sizes (mini-giants) up to 1542 bytes (configurations with GBIC ports
only).
