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.
Security Slider
Network security and access to your Cisco Catalyst Express 500 Series Switches are facilitated by choosing the
desired level (Low, Medium, or High) on the Security Slider in Cisco Network Assistant. The Low setting (default)
provides port security and protection against broadcast storms. The Medium setting adds MAC address
authentication. The High setting adds IEEE 802.1x authentication for media-level access control, offering the
capability to permit or deny network connectivity and control VLAN access based on user or machine identity.
