Cisco EnergyWise Technology

Cisco EnergyWise is an innovative architecture that enables companies to measure the power consumption of their network infrastructure and network-attached devices as well as management options for conserving energy. EnergyWise encompasses a highly intelligent network-based approach by discovering Cisco EnergyWise-supported devices, monitoring their power consumption and taking action based on the settings set by the administrator(s). EnergyWise uses a unique domain-naming system to query and summarize information on network devices, which facilitates energy management. The management interface uses standard Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) or TCP to integrate Cisco and third-party management systems

Cisco Catalyst Smart Operations

Cisco Catalyst Smart Operations is a comprehensive set of capabilities, such as Cisco Smart Install and Cisco Auto Smartports, which simplifies LAN development, configuration and troubleshooting. Cisco Smart Install features transparent plug-and-play technology that utilizes dynamic IP address allocation and the assistance of other switches to facilitate installation. Cisco Auto Smartports provide automatic configuration as soon as devices connect to the switch port. This gives the device instant detection as well as plug and play capabilities while connected to the network

Cisco Network Assistant

Built as a PC-based network management application, Cisco Network Assistant helps small and medium-sized businesses (SMB) set up networks with up to 250 users. Cisco Network Assistant uses Cisco Smartports technology to centralize network management and configuration capabilities. Featuring an intuitive graphical user interface (GUI), Cisco Network Assistant simplifies initial deployment and ongoing maintenance as well as easy access to Cisco switches, routers and access points

Cisco TrustSec

The Cisco TrustSec solution provides several security options to protect the network infrastructure. With options for authentication, access control and security policy administration, this Cisco Catalyst Ethernet Switch prevents unauthorized access to the network by users without designated privileges. It also provides the ability to dynamically administer granular levels of network access
