Through significant improvements to the software infrastructure, the Cisco IOS software modular Catalyst 6500 maximizes operational efficiency and reduces downtime. By running the modular Cisco IOS subsystem as an independently recoverable process, this innovation can:

  • Through Fault suppression and stateful process restart, the unplanned downtime can be minimized to improve the availability of integrated applications;
  • By upgrading ISSU through software running subsystem), software changes are simplified. This feature greatly reduces software verification and deployment time and business risks.
  • By integrating Cisco IOS Embedded event manager EEM), process-Level Automatic policy control is implemented. This feature allows you to use smart networks to execute time-consuming tasks and speed up solving network problems.

Listen to customers' comments:

"We predict that the Cisco IOS software modularization will reduce the upgrade time of over 60 Catalyst 6500 software in our company from six weeks to six hours, in addition, we do not need to wait for the planned downtime to upgrade at any time. "
-- Dave Rogers, senior IT network manager of American Century Investment

"By using Cisco IOS software modularization and high availability features on our Catalyst 6500 switch, we can now use targeted software patches to reduce operating costs while improving network availability. Because we do not need to restart the switch after installing patches, We can greatly reduce the need to schedule long maintenance tasks after work. The embedded event manager provides us with precise control capabilities, allowing us to automatically execute routine tasks and simplify the detection of abnormal behavior, thus improving work efficiency ."
-- Hugo Hirzel, head network engineer of Swisscom IT Services

Cisco IOS software modularization adopted by the Catalyst 6500 series is Cisco's latest software innovation on this flagship exchange platform. Cisco is developing a series of innovative software technologies for the Catalyst 6500 series, which will further consolidate the platform's technological lead in the LAN exchange market.
