OL-9775-08
IPv6 unicast routing capability for forwarding IPv6 traffic through configured interfaces (requires
the IP services feature set)
IPv6 default router preference (DRP) for improving the ability of a host to select an appropriate
router
Support for EIGRP IPv6, which utilizes IPv6 transport, communicates with IPv6 peers, and
advertises IPv6 routes
IP unicast reverse path forwarding (unicast RPF) for confirming source packet IP addresses.
Nonstop forwarding (NSF) awareness to enable the Layer 3 switch to continue forwarding packets
from an NSF-capable neighboring router when the primary route processor (RP) is failing and the
backup RP is taking over, or when the primary RP is manually reloaded for a nondisruptive software
upgrade (requires the IP services feature set)
NSF-capable routing for OSPF and EIGRP that allows the switch to rebuild routing tables based on
information from NSF-aware and NSF-capable neighbors (only Catalyst 3750-E switches)
The ability to exclude a port in a VLAN from the SVI line-state up or down calculation
Intermediate System-to-Intermediate System (IS-IS) routing supports dynamic routing protocols for
Connectionless Network Service (CLNS) networks.
Ability to provide power to connected Cisco pre-standard and IEEE 802.3af-compliant powered
devices from Power over Ethernet (PoE)-capable ports if the switch detects that there is no power
on the circuit.
Cisco IOS Release 12.2(44)SE and later supports enhanced PoE. An enhanced PoE port can support
any additional powered device that requires up to 20 W of power, such as a Cisco AP1250 wireless
access point.
Support for CDP with power consumption. The powered device notifies the switch of the amount of
power it is consuming.
Support for Cisco intelligent power management. The powered device and the switch negotiate
through power-negotiation CDP messages for an agreed power-consumption level. The negotiation
allows a high-power Cisco powered device to operate at its highest power mode.
Automatic detection and power budgeting; the switch maintains a power budget, monitors and tracks
requests for power, and grants power only when it is available.
Ability to monitor the real-time power consumption. On a per-PoE port basis, the switch senses the
total power consumption, polices the power usage, and reports the power usage.
StackPower technology on Catalyst 3750-X switches running the IP base or IP services feature set.
Switch LEDs that provide port- and switch-level status on Catalyst 3560-E switches
Switch LEDs that provide port-, switch-, and stack-level status on Catalyst 3750-E switches
MAC address notification traps and RADIUS accounting for tracking users on a network by storing
the MAC addresses that the switch has learned or removed
Switched Port Analyzer (SPAN) and Remote SPAN (RSPAN) for traffic monitoring on any port or
VLAN
