What is a Campus?

Campus is where USERS access the network The Campus connects devices used by employees such as Desktop Computers,

Laptops & VOIP phones and communicates with network resources such as

Printers, Projectors and Voice & Video Endpoints, and also provides access to

the Data Center, Branch Offices and the Internet

Campus integrates Wired & Wireless access The Campus connects devices used by employees over both Wired & Wireless

Ethernet, and also provides capabilities such as Power Over Ethernet (POE).

For example, a Laptop or Smart Phone may connect to a Wireless AP, powered

by POE, which connects to a Wired Campus Switch

Campus needs Application Visibility & Control The Campus connects many different types of devices, using many different

types of applications. These applications range from Email, to File Transfer, to

Web Services, to Video Conferencing. Each type requires specialized monitoring

and configuration capabilities to manage Security and Quality of Service

• Few Small to Medium-Bandwidth LAN Uplinks

• Network Virtualization: VLANs, STP, FEX, etc.

• Integrated Wired / Wireless & Power Over Ethernet

• L2 Security, QoS & Flexible Netflow (AVC)

• Many Small to Medium-Bandwidth LAN Downlinks

• Few MAN (High-Band) or WAN (Low-Band) Uplinks

• Network Virtualization: MPLS, VPLS, etc.

• Internal & External Autonomous Systems

• Large IPv4 / IPv6 Routing Tables

• Layer 3 Security, QoS & Flexible Netflow (AVC)

• Few High-Bandwidth LAN Downlinks

• Few High-Bandwidth LAN Uplinks

• Network Virtualization: EVN, VRF-Lite, VLANs, etc.

• Integrated Services (WiSM2, ASA-SM, NAM-3)

• Medium IPv4 / IPv6 Routing Tables

• L2 / L3 Security, QoS & Flexible Netflow (AVC)

• Many Small to Medium-Bandwidth LAN Downlinks

Three “Logical” Layers: • Each layer serves a specific set of functions

• Each layer has a specific set of requirements

If you “collapse” layers,

your multi-layer switch needs to

support all logical functions

Catalyst Instant Access How to configure IA Host Ports?

IA host ports use a 4-part notation: Interface Type FEX ID / Stack ID / Sub-Mod (0) / Port

Layer 2 Configuration

!

interface GigabitEthernet101/1/0/1

switchport

switchport access vlan 101

switchport mode access

logging event link-status

load-interval 30

spanning-tree portfast edge

!

Layer 3 Configuration

!

interface GigabitEthernet102/2/0/1

no switchport

ip address 68.7.102.254 255.255.255.0

logging event link-status

load-interval 30

ipv6 address 2013:68:7:102::254/96

ipv6 ospf 1 area 68

!

NOTE: The default mode is “switchport”. Issue “no switchport” to enable L3 CLI

Instant Access Deployment Simplicity of Image Management

One IOS Image across Distribution & Access-Layer

C6500/C6800 Image + C6800IA Image bundled together as One Image

Automatic Image Management for Access-Layer

Automatic Image check & downloaded to IA client, when it comes online

Enhanced Fast Software Upgrade (with ISSU)

Behaves Just Like a Line Card!

The C6800IA image is managed by VSS System

StackPower on the Catalyst 3850 Series Delivering Unprecedented Power Availability and Flexibility

• Power Resiliency - Adaptable “pool of power” available to all stack members

• Provides “Zero-footprint” RPS i.e. power supply redundancy without an RPS

• Intelligent power shedding—turn off low priority PoE end devices in the event of a power supply failure

Resiliency - StackWise-480/160

• Improved Stack Bandwidth:

• 240 Gbps bi-directional

• 480 Gbps with spatial reuse

• Stateful Switch Over (SSO):

• Faster Convergence (vs 3750-X)

• Active-Standby model

• Improved Central synchronization on Active Switch for Wired+Wireless

• Tunnel SSO ensures AP, MA-MC connectivity during failover

• No Backward Compatibility with 3750 series

The New vs. Old Branch Office

Catalyst 3K-X and 4K Typical Branch Deployment Challenges

Operational

Complexities

Sub-optimal

TCO

• Segmented Networks (Wired and Wireless)

• Network blind spots

• Separate security and QoS policies for Wired and

Wireless

• Differentiated network policies for Wired and Wireless

• 2X Troubleshooting efforts

• Multiple failure points

• Scalability depends on WAN/network bandwidth

• L3 roaming limitations

• More devices to manage and service

• Expensive and excessive WAN usage

• Business impact due to WAN failure


The New vs. Old Branch Office

Catalyst 3K-X and 4K Converged Network Branch Office Advantages

Advanced

and Simple

Mobility

Solution

Optimal TCO

• Single platform for wired and wireless

• Better network auditing for applications

• Single point of configuration for both Wired and Wireless

• Consistent policies for service control including AVC

• Improved network control (Fair Sharing)

• Higher network bandwidth at the edge (802.11ac and

40G)

• Scalable as needed

• Business Continuity with or without WAN

• Less devices to manage and service

• Smart & optimal use of WAN bandwidth

• Faster Troubleshooting
