The Cisco Catalyst 2960 LAN Base software image is a rich suite of intelligent services, including advanced QoS, rate limiting, ACLs, and IPv6 management. The SFP-based Gigabit Ethernet ports accommodate a range of SFP transceivers, including the Cisco 1000BASE-SX, 1000BASE-LX, 1000BASE-BX, 1000BASE-ZX, 100BASE-FX, 100BASE-LX, 100BASE-BX, and coarse wavelength-division multiplexing (CWDM) SFP transceivers.
Power over Ethernet
The Cisco Catalyst 2960 Series
provide PoE to allow easy
connectivity to Ethernet-powered
devices including Cisco IP
phones and wireless access
points. Cisco Catalyst 2960 PoE
models comply with Cisco
pre-standard PoE and IEEE
802.3af. PoE removes the need
for wall power to each
PoE-enabled device and
eliminates the cost for
additional electrical cable and
circuits that would otherwise be
necessary in IP phone and WLAN
deployments. PoE switches also
eliminate the need for power
injectors and PoE mid-spans for
powering IP devices. The Cisco
Catalyst 2960-24PC-L can support
24 simultaneous full-powered PoE
port at 15.4W. The Cisco
Catalyst 2960-24LT-L has 24
10/100 ports with 8 simultaneous
full-powered PoE ports at 15.4W.
The Cisco Catalyst 2960-8TT-L
has eight 10/100 ports with one
10/100/1000 PoE input port. This
switch does not need a power
supply and receives power over
the uplink from an upstream PoE
device, providing deployment
flexibility and availability. It
is ideal for wiring and
space-constraint applications.
The power adaptor (PWR-A=) and
power cord are optional and may
be ordered separately.
Gigabit Ethernet
At speeds of 1000 Mbps, Gigabit
Ethernet provides the bandwidth
to meet new and evolving network
demands, alleviate bottlenecks,
and boost performance while
increasing the return on
existing infrastructure
investments. Today's workers are
placing higher demands on
networks, running multiple
concurrent applications. For
example, a worker joins a team
conference call through an IP
videoconference, sends a 10-MB
spreadsheet to meeting
participants, broadcasts the
latest marketing video for the
team to evaluate, and queries
the customer relationship
management (CRM) database for
the latest real-time feedback.
Meanwhile, a multigigabyte
system backup starts in the
background and the latest virus
updates are delivered to the
client.
Redundant Power System
The Cisco Catalyst 2960 Series
Switches support the new
generation of the Cisco
Redundant Power System (RPS)
2300, which increases
availability in a converged
data, voice, and video network
by providing transparent power
backup to two of six attached
switches at the same time.
Intelligence in the Network
Networks of today are evolving
to address four new developments
at the network edge:
• Increase in desktop computing power
• Introduction of bandwidth-intensive applications
• Expansion of highly sensitive data on the network
• Presence of multiple device types, such as IP phones, WLAN access points, and IP video cameras
These new demands contend for
resources with existing
mission-critical applications.
As a result, IT professionals
must view the edge of the
network as critical to
effectively manage the delivery
of information and applications.
As companies increasingly rely
on networks as their strategic
business infrastructure, it is
more important than ever to help
ensure their high availability,
security, scalability, and
control. By adding Cisco
intelligent functions for LAN
access, you can now deploy
networkwide intelligent services
that consistently address these
requirements from the desktop to
the core and through the WAN.
Cisco Catalyst Intelligent
Ethernet switches help you
realize the full benefits of
adding intelligent services into
your networks. Deploying
capabilities that make the
network infrastructure highly
available to accommodate
time-critical needs, scalable to
accommodate growth, secure
enough to protect confidential
information, and capable of
differentiating and controlling
traffic flows is critical to
further optimizing network
operations.
Enhanced Security
The wide range of security
features that the Cisco Catalyst
2960 LAN Base Series offers
helps you protect important
information, keep unauthorized
people off the network, guard
privacy, and maintain
uninterrupted operation.
The Cisco Identity-Based
Networking Services (IBNS)
solution provides
authentication, access control,
and security policy
administration to secure network
connectivity and resources.
Cisco IBNS in the Cisco Catalyst
2960 LAN Base Series prevents
unauthorized access and helps
ensure that users get only their
designated privileges. It
provides the ability to
dynamically administer granular
levels of network access. Using
the 802.1x standard and the
Cisco Secure Access Control
Server (ACS), users can be
assigned a VLAN upon
authentication, regardless of
where they connect to the
network. This setup allows IT
departments to enable strong
security policies without
compromising user mobility and
with minimal administrative
overhead.
To guard against
denial-of-service (DoS) and
other attacks, ACLs can be used
to restrict access to sensitive
portions of the network by
denying packets based on source
and destination MAC addresses,
IP addresses, or TCP/User
Datagram Protocol (UDP) ports.
ACL lookups are done in
hardware, so forwarding
performance is not compromised
when ACL-based security is
implemented.
Port security can be used to
limit access on an Ethernet port
based on the MAC address of the
device to which it is connected.
It also can be used to limit the
total number of devices plugged
into a switch port, thereby
protecting the switch from a MAC
flooding attack as well as
reducing the risks of rogue
wireless access points or hubs.
With Dynamic Host Configuration
Protocol (DHCP) snooping, DHCP
spoofing can be thwarted by
allowing only DHCP requests (but
not responses) from untrusted
user-facing ports. Additionally,
the DHCP Interface Tracker
(Option 82) feature helps enable
granular control over IP address
assignment by augmenting a host
IP address request with the
switch port ID.
The MAC Address Notification
feature can be used to monitor
the network and track users by
sending an alert to a management
station so that network
administrators know when and
where users entered the network.
Secure Shell Protocol Version 2
(SSHv2) and Simple Network
Management Protocol Version 3
(SNMPv3) encrypt administrative
and network-management
information, protecting the
network from tampering or
eavesdropping. TACACS+ or RADIUS
authentication enables
centralized access control of
switches and restricts
unauthorized users from altering
the configurations.
Alternatively, a local username
and password database can be
configured on the switch itself.
Fifteen levels of authorization
on the switch console and two
levels on the Web-based
management interface provide the
ability to give different levels
of configuration capabilities to
different administrators.
Intelligent PoE Management
The Cisco Catalyst 2960 PoE
models support Cisco IP phones
and Cisco Aironet® wireless LAN
access points, as well as any
IEEE 802.3af-compliant end
device.
• Cisco Discovery Protocol version 2 allows the Cisco Catalyst 2960 Series Switch to negotiate a more granular power setting when connecting to a Cisco powered device, such as IP phones or access points, than what is provided by IEEE classification.
• The PoE MIB provides proactive visibility into power usage and allows you to set different power level thresholds.
• Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP and LLDP-MED) adds support for IEEE 802.1AB link layer discovery protocol for interoperability in multivendor networks. Switches exchange speed, duplex, and power settings with end devices such as IP phones.
Availability and Scalability
The Cisco Catalyst 2960 LAN Base
Series is equipped with a large
set of features that allow for
network scalability and higher
availability through multicast
filtering as well as a complete
suite of Spanning Tree Protocol
enhancements aimed to maximize
availability in a Layer 2
network.
Voice-aware 802.1x port security
disables the offending data VLAN
when a violation is detected
without affecting Voice VLAN on
the same switch port.
Enhancements to the standard
Spanning Tree Protocol, such as
Per-VLAN Spanning Tree Plus
(PVST+), UplinkFast, and
PortFast help maximize network
uptime. PVST+ allows for Layer 2
load sharing on redundant links
to efficiently use the extra
capacity inherent in a redundant
design. UplinkFast, PortFast,
and BackboneFast all greatly
reduce the standard 30- to
60-second Spanning Tree Protocol
convergence time. Flexlink
provides bidirectional, fast
convergence in less than 100
milliseconds. The Loopguard and
bridge protocol data unit (BPDU)
guard enhancements provide
Spanning Tree Protocol loop
avoidance.
Advanced QoS
The Cisco Catalyst 2960 LAN Base
Series offers superior
multilayer QoS features to help
ensure that network traffic is
classified and prioritized and
that congestion is avoided in
the best possible manner.
Configuration of QoS is greatly
simplified through automatic QoS
(Auto QoS), a feature that
detects Cisco IP phones and
automatically configures the
switch for the appropriate
classification and egress
queuing. This optimizes traffic
prioritization and network
availability without the
challenge of a complex
configuration.
The Cisco Catalyst 2960 LAN Base
Series can classify, reclassify,
police, mark, queue, and
schedule incoming packets and
can queue and schedule packets
at egress. Packet classification
allows the network elements to
discriminate between various
traffic flows and enforce
policies based on Layer 2 and
Layer 3 QoS fields.
To implement QoS, the Cisco
Catalyst 2960 LAN Base Series
Switch first identifies traffic
flows or packet groups, then
classifies or reclassifies these
groups using the differentiated
services code point (DSCP) field
or the 802.1p class of service
(CoS) field. Classification and
reclassification can be based on
criteria as specific as the
source or destination IP
address, source or destination
MAC address, or the Layer 4 TCP
or UDP port. At the ingress, the
Cisco Catalyst 2960 LAN Base
Series also polices to determine
whether a packet is in or out of
profile, marks to change the
classification label, passes
through or drops out of profile
packets, and queues packets
based on classification.
Control-plane and data-plane
ACLs are supported on all ports
to help ensure proper treatment
on a per-packet basis.
The Cisco Catalyst 2960 LAN Base
Series supports four egress
queues per port, giving network
administrators more control in
assigning priorities for the
various applications on the LAN.
At egress, the switch performs
congestion control and
scheduling, the algorithm or
process that determines the
order in which queues are
processed. The Cisco Catalyst
2960 LAN Base Series Switch
supports Shaped Round Robin
(SRR) and strict priority
queuing. The SRR algorithm helps
ensure differential
prioritization.
These QoS features allow network
administrators to prioritize
mission-critical and
bandwidth-intensive traffic,
such as enterprise resource
planning (ERP), voice (IP
telephony traffic), and
computer-aided design and
manufacturing (CAD/CAM), over
applications such as FTP or
e-mail. For example, it would be
undesirable to have a large file
download destined to one port on
a switch increase latency in
voice traffic destined to
another port on this switch.
This condition is avoided by
making sure that voice traffic
is properly classified and
prioritized throughout the
network. Other applications,
such as Web browsing, can be
handled on a lower-priority
basis.
The Cisco Catalyst 2960 Series
LAN Base can perform rate
limiting through its support of
the Cisco committed information
rate (CIR) function. Through
CIR, bandwidth can be guaranteed
in increments as small as 1
Mbps. Bandwidth can be allocated
based on several criteria,
including MAC source address,
MAC destination address, IP
source address, IP destination
address, and TCP or UDP port
number. Bandwidth allocation is
essential when network
environments require
service-level agreements or when
it is necessary to control the
bandwidth given to certain
users.
Management
The new Express Setup feature
simplifies the initial
configuration of a switch. Now
you can set up the switch
through a Web browser,
eliminating the need for
terminal-emulation programs and
the command-line interface
(CLI). Express Setup reduces the
cost of deployment by helping
less-skilled personnel quickly
and easily set up switches.
Cisco Network Assistant is a
PC-based network-management
application optimized for LANs
with up to 250 users. Cisco
Network Assistant offers
centralized management of Cisco
switches, routers, and WLAN
access points. It supports a
wide range of Cisco Catalyst
intelligent switches from Cisco

without the need to consult a
detailed design guide. The
Security wizard automatically
restricts unauthorized access to
servers with sensitive data.
Smartports and wizards save time
for network administrators,
reduce human errors, and help
ensure that the configuration of
the switch is optimized for
these applications. Available at
no cost, Cisco Network Assistant
can be downloaded from the Cisco
Website.

broadcast,
multicast, and
unicast storm
control prevents
faulty end stations
from degrading
overall systems
performance.
• IEEE 802.1d
Spanning Tree
Protocol support for
redundant backbone
connections and
loop-free networks
simplifies network
configuration and
improves fault
tolerance.
• PVST+ allows for
Layer 2 load sharing
on redundant links
to efficiently use
the extra capacity
inherent in
a redundant design.
• IEEE 802.1s
Multiple Spanning
Tree Protocol allows
a spanning-tree
instance per VLAN,
enabling Layer 2
load sharing on
redundant links.
• Egress committed
rate (ECR) guarantee
provides load
balancing and
redundancy.
• Local Proxy
Address Resolution
Protocol (ARP) works
in conjunction with
Private VLAN Edge to
minimize broadcasts
and maximize
available bandwidth.
• VLAN1 minimization
allows VLAN1 to be
disabled on any
individual VLAN
trunk link.
• VLAN Trunking
Protocol (VTP)
pruning limits
bandwidth
consumption on VTP
trunks by flooding
broadcast traffic
only on trunk links
required to reach
the destination
devices.
• Internet Group
Management Protocol
(IGMP) version 3
snooping provides
fast client joins
and leaves of
multicast streams
and limits
bandwidth-intensive
video traffic to
only the requestors.
• IGMP filtering
provides multicast
authentication by
filtering out no
subscribers and
limits the number of
concurrent multicast
streams available
per port.
• Multicast VLAN
registration (MVR)
continuously sends
multicast streams in
a multicast VLAN
while isolating
e streams from
subscriber VLANs for
bandwidth and
security reasons.
|
|
| QoS and Control | ||
| Advanced QoS |
• Standard 802.1p
CoS and DSCP field
classification are
provided, using
marking and
reclassification on
a per-packet basis
by source and
destination IP
address, source and
destination MAC
address, or Layer 4
TCP or UDP port
number.
• Cisco
control-plane and
data-plane QoS ACLs
on all ports help
ensure proper
marking on a
per-packet basis.
• Four egress queues
per port enable
differentiated
management of up to
four traffic types.
• SRR scheduling
ensures differential
prioritization of
packet flows by
intelligently
servicing the
ingress and egress
queues.
• Weighted tail drop
(WTD) provides
congestion avoidance
at the ingress and
egress queues before
a disruption occurs.
• Strict priority
queuing guarantees
that the
highest-priority
packets are serviced
ahead of all other
traffic.
• There is no
performance penalty
for highly granular
QoS functions.
|
|
| Granular Rate Limiting |
• The Cisco CIR
function guarantees
bandwidth in
increments as small
as 1 Mbps.
• Rate limiting is
provided based on
source and
destination IP
address, source and
destination MAC
address, Layer 4 TCP
and UDP information,
or any combination
of these fields,
using QoS ACLs (IP
ACLs or MAC ACLs),
class maps, and
policy maps.
• Asynchronous data
flows upstream and
downstream from the
end station or on
the uplink are
easily managed using
ingress policing and
egress shaping.
• Up to 64 aggregate
or individual
polices are
available per Fast
Ethernet or Gigabit
Ethernet port.
|
|
| Security | ||
| Networkwide Security Features |
• IEEE 802.1x allows
dynamic, port-based
security, providing
user authentication.
• IEEE 802.1x with
VLAN assignment
allows a dynamic
VLAN assignment for
a specific user
regardless of where
the user is
connected.
• IEEE 802.1x with
voice VLAN permits
an IP phone to
access the voice
VLAN irrespective of
the authorized
or unauthorized
state of the port.
• IEEE 802.1x and
port security are
provided to
authenticate the
port and manage
network access for
all MAC addresses,
including those of
the client.
• IEEE 802.1x with
Guest VLAN allows
guests without
802.1x clients to
have limited network
access on the guest
VLAN.
• Web authentication
for non-802.1x
clients allows
non-802.1x clients
to use an SSL-based
browser for
authentication.
• MAC Auth Bypass
(MAB) for voice
allows third-party
IP phones without an
802.1x supplicant to
get authenticated
using their MAC
address.
• Port-based ACLs
for Layer 2
interfaces allow
application of
security policies on
individual switch
ports.
• Unicast MAC
filtering prevents
the forwarding of
any type of packet
with a matching MAC
address.
• Unknown unicast
and multicast port
blocking allows
tight control by
filtering packets
that the switch has
not already learned
how to forward.
• SSHv2 and SNMPv3
provide network
security by
encrypting
administrator
traffic during
Telnet and SNMP
sessions. SSHv2 and
the cryptographic
version of SNMPv3
require a special
cryptographic
software image
because of U.S.
export restrictions.
• Bidirectional data
support on the
Switched Port
Analyzer (SPAN) port
allows the Cisco
Secure intrusion
detection system
(IDS) to take action
when an intruder is
detected.
• TACACS+ and RADIUS
authentication
enable centralized
control of the
switch and restrict
unauthorized
users from altering
the configuration.
• MAC address
notification allows
administrators to be
notified of users
added to or removed
from the network.
• DHCP snooping
allows
administrators to
ensure consistent
mapping of IP to MAC
addresses. This can
be used to prevent
attacks that attempt
to poison the DHCP
binding database,
and to rate-limit
the amount of DHCP
traffic that enters
a switch port.
• DHCP Interface
Tracker (Option 82)
feature augments a
host IP address
request with the
switch port ID.
• Port security
secures the access
to an access or
trunk port based on
MAC address.
• After a specific
timeframe, the aging
feature removes the
MAC address from the
switch to allow
another device to
connect to the same
port.
• Trusted Boundary
provides the ability
to trust the QoS
priority settings if
an IP phone is
present and to
disable the trust
setting if the IP
phone is removed,
thereby preventing a
malicious user from
overriding
prioritization
policies in the
network.
• Multilevel
security on console
access prevents
unauthorized users
from altering the
switch
configuration.
• The
user-selectable
address-learning
mode simplifies
configuration and
enhances security.
• BPDU Guard shuts
down Spanning Tree
Protocol PortFast-enabled
interfaces when
BPDUs are received
to avoid accidental
topology loops.
• Spanning-Tree Root
Guard (STRG)
prevents edge
devices not in the
network
administrator's
control from
becoming Spanning
Tree Protocol root
nodes.
• Voice VLAN aware
port security and
BPDU Guard allow
Voice VLAN traffic
to not be disrupted
when security
violations occur.
• IGMP filtering
provides multicast
authentication by
filtering out no
subscribers and
limits the number of
concurrent multicast
streams available
per port.
• Dynamic VLAN
assignment is
supported through
implementation of
VLAN Membership
Policy Server (VMPS) client
functions to provide
flexibility in
assigning ports to
VLANs. Dynamic VLAN
helps enable
the fast assignment
of IP addresses.
• Cisco Network
Assistant software
security wizards
ease the deployment
of security features
for restricting user
access to a server
as well as to a
portion of or the
entire network.
• Up to 512 (Aces)
are supported, with
two profiles:
Security (384
Security ACL entries
and 128 QoS
policies), and QoS
(128 Security ACL
entries and 384 QoS
policies).

| Power Connectors |
• Customers can
provide power to a
switch by using
either the internal
power supply or the
Cisco RPS 675.
The connectors are
located at the back
of the switch.
• Note: The Catalyst
2960-8TC-L and
Catalyst 2960G-8TC-L
do not have RPS
ports.
•
Internal-Power-Supply
Connector
• The internal power
supply is an
autoranging unit.
• The internal power
supply supports
input voltages
between 100 and
240VAC.
• Use the supplied
AC power cord to
connect the AC power
connector to an AC
power outlet.
• Cisco RPS
Connector
• The connector
offers connection
for an optional
Cisco RPS 2300 that
uses AC input and
supplies DC output
to the switch.
• The connector
offers a 2300W
redundant power
system that supports
up to six external
network devices and
provides power
to two failed
devices at a time.
• The connector
automatically senses
when the internal
power supply of a
connected device
fails and provides
power to the failed
device, preventing
loss of network
traffic.
• Only the Cisco RPS
2300 (model
PWR-RPS2300) should
be attached to the
redundant-power-system
receptacle.
