Requires a new approach

• IT innovation as a “competitive advantage”

• Align People, Processes, Technology

• Common goals for CEO and CIO


Is customer experience a critical focus for your business? 1

How important do you view security as part of your IT infrastructure strategy? 2

Would simpler deployment, operations and operability be a benefit? 3

Is application access a headache for your users and IT staff? 4

Do you view your IT as business supporting or business enabling? 5


Purpose Built for BYOD Because

New Catalyst 6K is purpose built for BYOD because –

1 Delivers integrated context

aware networking (take networking decisions based in user, device, location, time-of-the-day)

2 It is optimized for 10G/40G

and is ready for 100G (offering investment protection)

3 Wired and Wireless

convergence in a single network

1 Can’t deliver context aware

networking (take networking

decisions based in user,

device, location, time-of-the-

day etc)

2 Can’t handle the traffic

increased produced by the

explosion of devices,

applications (specially

video) and wireless traffic

3 Independent networks for

Wired and Wireless


Purpose Built for Integrated Security Because

New Catalyst 6K is purpose built for Security because –

1 Offers data confidentiality

and simple policy enforcement with cryptographic encryption of all traffic and role based/topology independent policy enforcement

2 Simplifies the creation of

Virtual Networks by a factor of 10x+ with EVN

3 Speedy detection and

resolution of security breaches with real-time visibility and control over network applications

1 You can’t ensure the

confidentiality of your

communications

2 It is difficult to maintain

security policies while

ensuring business continuity

3 It is hard to identify and

troubleshoot security breaches

due to the lack of visibility of

network applications


Purpose Built lowering Operational Expenses Because

New Catalyst 6K is purpose built to lower OpEx because –

1 Instant Access delivers

touchless access, no configuration at access switches

2 Consistent features and

agile infrastructure across your network

3 Single image, configuration

point within Instant Access domain

1 Need to configure

every switch, multiple

configuration instances

2 Different images, features

and configurations across

the network

3 18% of IT spent in initial

install, configs, testing;

28% monitoring and

troubleshooting

Deployment Models Traditional, Unified and Instant Access

Where Customers Deploy Instant Access

Want to manage their access/distribution block as a

Single 6500/6800 VSS entity

Do not require the scale and services of

Converged Access

Require advanced segmentation techniques

such as MPLS in the access

Require access (PoE) ports on their

Catalyst 6500/6800

Customer Needs

Call centers requiring simple, low-cost access with

advanced segmentation

Virtual desktop deployments (not hybrid) that have

single encrypted flow per access port

Retail environment where technical staff is

unavailable & wired registers need to be connected

Customer Use

Existing 6500 customers who want investment

protection (competitive situation to re-use investment)


Key Takeaways

Nonstop Innovation Scalable, Smart, Simple, Secure
