Table 1   Service Modules Supported

Hardware  Description 
WS-SVC-NAM-1 and WS-SVC-NAM-2

Network Analysis Module (NAM-1 and NAM-2)—Application-level visibility in the network infrastructure for real-time traffic analysis, performance monitoring, and troubleshooting. The new fabric-enabled NAM-1 and NAM-2 provide greater monitoring capacity for gigabit networks and offer embedded Web-based Traffic Analyzer for traffic monitoring.

WS-SVC-IDSM2-BUN-K9

Intrusion Detection System Module (IDSM-2)—Designed specifically to address switched environments by integrating the IDS function directly into the switch and taking traffic off the switch backplane, thus bringing both switching and security function into the same chassis.

WS-SVC-FWM-1-K9

Firewall Services Module (FWSM)—A high-speed, integrated firewall module for Cisco Catalyst® 6500 Series switches and Cisco 7600 Series routers that provides the fastest firewall data rates in the industry: 5-Gbps throughput, 100,000 CPS, and 1M concurrent connections. Up to four FWSMs can be installed in a single chassis providing scalability to 20-Gbps per chassis. Based on Cisco PIX® Firewall technology, the FWSM provides large enterprises and service providers with superior security, reliability, and performance.

WS-SVC-SSL-1-K9

SSL Services Module (SSM)—Accelerates the performance and increases the security of Web-enabled applications, enabling comprehensive secure content networking and guaranteeing a swift and persistent customer experience. Integrated SSL delivers unmatched security, space-efficiency, and manageability for demanding environments.

WS-X6066-SLB-APC

Cisco Content Switching Module (CSM)—With a full set of Layers 4-7 features, the CSM integrates advanced content switching into the Catalyst 6500 Series to provide high-performance, high-availability load balancing of firewalls, web servers, caches and other network devices. **The CSM requires a minimum software image of 3.1(4) in order to interoperate with the Supervisor 720.
