Health Monitoring With Cisco Network Assistant, users can quickly access the status of switches, including packet errors; temperature; Power over Ethernet (PoE); and bandwidth, CPU, memory, and ternary content addressable memory (TCAM) usage - all from the same window. Users can select the health categories they wish to monitor; for each category selected, the switch with the highest usage is displayed in the quick view. Users can access a more comprehensive view by clicking the Details button. Power Supply Feature The power supply features support the redundant power supplies for the Cisco Catalyst 3500 and 3700 Series products as well as the Cisco Catalyst 4500 and 4500 E-Series power supplies. Users can prioritize the switch order for drawing power. The amount of power drawn, what switch is drawing power, and switch priority can all be easily configured and viewed. For the Cisco Catalyst 4500 and 4500 E-Series, this feature provides a convenient way to examine and configure all system and inline power settings, per device and per module. Power over Ethernet The PoE feature gives users access to configure power guarantees per port, and the ability to police ports and shut faulty ones down. Users can view the power runtime status, the amount of power consumed, and the device that is connected to the port. Diagnostics Administrators can keep their network healthy by running their own diagnostic tests; tests are scheduled from the Diagnostics window. CLI Preview Prior to applying features, users now can view the command lines of certain features. File Management The new File Management feature provides an overview of all devices in the community. At a glance the user can determine the status of all device file systems in their community. Files are displayed in an easy-to-navigate and familiar file explorer interface. A file can be managed on all file systems concurrently. Devices that use Class B file systems, such as the Cisco Catalyst 4500 and 4500 E-Series and some Cisco routers, support functions for undeleting files and squeezing file systems to reclaim space. VLAN Highlighting From the topology view, users can associate VLAN numbers with colors to quickly view what devices are in a VLAN. Devices that are associated with more than one VLAN display two or more colors with a candy-cane effect.

Guest Port Guest Port enables companies to provide visiting guests with Internet access, thereby allowing them to establish VPN connectivity to their company resources. Guest Port users are separated from internal network traffic so that the confidential intranet access only information and services remain secure from unauthorized guest users. Network Synchronization This feature detects inconsistent settings in the network such as VLAN mismatches, centralized time, and security policies. Working in concert with the Troubleshooting Advisor, these inconsistencies are detected and fixed easily. Online Help A detailed, transparent help function embedded in the framework of Cisco Network Assistant provides an extensive glossary and powerful search engine that takes users to the correct (requested) window or related links to apply specific settings. Online Help empowers the user to find instruction and troubleshoot without having to call for technical support. Cisco Smartports Advisor Cisco Smartports Advisor is an embedded tool that discovers devices connected in the network and recommends appropriate Cisco best practice configurations for security, availability, and quality-of-service (QoS) features on switch ports. This feature saves time by proactively recommending Cisco best practices and removes the need for network administrators to consult detailed design guides or documentation. Cisco Smartports technology saves time for network administrators; avoids human error; and helps ensure the configuration of the switch, router, or access point is optimized for these applications. Topology and Front Panel Views Users can monitor their network from two perspectives: the physical topology view or the front panel view. The rich topology view graphically represents the types of devices in the network as well as detailed information about device status, physical connections, and various monitoring capabilities - all from a single view. The front panel view displays switches in the network simultaneously along with the state, duplex, and speed of switch ports. The front panel view also allows users to apply features across multiple ports or multiple switches when configuring features such as VLANs. In addition, real-time comprehensive reports are available for inventory, ports, QoS, and access control list (ACL) statistics.

Exclusive Features For The Cisco Catalyst Express 500 Series
Task-Based Menu Navigating through Cisco Network Assistant is intuitive and simple. The main toolbar is divided into four categories so users can easily find the important tasks and features to manage their Cisco Catalyst Express 500 Series Switch: Configure, Monitor, Troubleshoot, and Maintenance. Secure Wireless As WLAN becomes universal, enabling WLAN security is necessary, even for small businesses. Using the intelligence built into the Cisco Catalyst Express 500 Series, Cisco Network Assistant guides users through the configuration of setting up Service Set Identifier (SSID) and encryption on Cisco Aironet wireless access points.
