CISCO IOS SOFTWARE RELEASE 12.2(25)EWA SUPPORT
New Software Features
Per-Port Per-VLAN Quality of Service
Per-port per-VLAN quality of service (QoS) offers differentiated QoSs to individual VLANs on a trunk or access port. It allows service providers to rate limit individual VLAN-based services on each trunk port to a business or a residence. In an enterprise voice over IP (VoIP) environment, it can be used to rate limit the voice VLAN on an access port even if a network intruder impersonates an IP phone. Per-port per-VLAN service policy can be separately applied to either ingress or egress traffic.
Trunk-Port Security
Trunk-port security extends the port security to trunk ports on a per-VLAN basis. It restricts the allowed MAC addresses or the maximum number of MAC addresses to individual VLANs on a trunk port. Trunk-port security enables service providers to block the access from a station with a different MAC address than the ones specified for that VLAN on that trunk port. When a trunk-port security violation occurs, the trunk port is either shut down, or a Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) trap is generated. Trunk-port security is also supported on private VLAN trunk ports.
NetFlow Bridged IP Flow
NetFlow is traditionally used to collect and export routed IP flows. In a Layer 2 access environment, IP traffic is typically switched within a VLAN. The NetFlow bridged IP flow feature extends Cisco® Catalyst® 4500 NetFlow capability by creating, tracking, and exporting Layer 2 bridged IP flows in hardware at wire rate. It is activated along with routed IP flows through switch global configuration. For the Catalyst 4500 Series Supervisor Engine V-10GE, the NetFlow bridged IP flow feature extends User-Based Rate Limiting (UBRL) to bridged IP flows. The Catalyst 4500 Series Supervisor Engine V-10GE can now dynamically learn Layer 2 to 4 IP traffic flows and rate limit each unique routed or bridged IP flow to an individual rate. For Catalyst 4000/4500 supervisor engines IV and V, the NetFlow services daughter card is required to collect and export all Layer 2 to 4 IP flows.
802.1x Private VLAN Assignment
The 802.1x private VLAN assignment feature extends 802.1x VLAN assignment to the private VLAN environment for Layer 2 isolation. When a port is configured as a private VLAN host port, 802.1x private VLAN assignment authorizes a user to a specified secondary private VLAN. This feature can not be enabled concurrently on a port with a voice VLAN.
802.1x Private Guest VLAN
The 802.1x private guest VLAN feature extends 802.1x guest VLAN to the private VLAN environment for Layer 2 isolation. When a port is configured as a private VLAN host port, 802.1x private guest VLAN offers limited network access through a guest secondary PVLAN to users without a 802.1x supplicant.
802.1x Radius-Supplied Session Timeout
The 802.1x RADIUS-supplied timeout feature allows a switch to determine the duration of a session and the action to take when the session's timer expires. Based on the value specified by a RADIUS server, a Cisco Catalyst 4500 Series Switch could reauthenticate a host when the timer expires. This offers a standard mechanism for periodic 802.1x reauthentication based on a configurable timer.
DHCP Option 82 Pass Through
Option 82 in a Dynamic Host Control Protocol (DHCP) message is typically used to carry additional local information for user-access tracking. Option 82 is usually inserted or removed by an access switch or a DSL access multiplexer (DSLAM) in a service provider environment. The DHCP option 82 pass-through feature enables the Cisco Catalyst 4500 Series Switch to effectively transport these DHCP messages with option 82 in the aggregation layer. It can be activated through switch global configuration.
Routing Information Protocol SNMP MIB
Read-only Routing Information Protocol (RIP) Version 2 SNMP MIB extension (RFC 1724) is supported. The optional peer table is not yet provided.
Cisco IOS Software Release 12.2EW train offers the latest features for the Cisco Catalyst 4500 Series supervisor engines. Customers with Cisco Catalyst 4500 Series supervisor engines who need the latest hardware support and software features should migrate to Cisco IOS Software Release 12.2(25)EWA.
Cisco IOS Software Release 12.2(18)EW1 and all subsequent 12.2(18)EW maintenance releases have only the feature set based on Cisco IOS Software Release 12.2(18)EW for the Cisco Catalyst 4500 Series supervisor engines. Customers with Catalyst 4500 Series supervisor engines who require the stability of a bug-fix maintenance release should stay with the Cisco IOS Software Release 12.2(18)EW maintenance releases.
Cisco IOS Software Releases 12.1(19)E1 through 12.1(26)E have only the feature set based on Cisco IOS Software Release 12.1(12c)EW1 for the Cisco Catalyst 4500 Series supervisor engines. Customers with Catalyst 4500 Series supervisor engines who require the stability of a maintenance release should migrate from 12.1E releases to the Cisco IOS Software Release 12.2(18)EW maintenance releases.
