Cisco 500 Series switches are designed to be easy to use and manage by small
businesses or the partners that serve them. They feature:
● Simple-to-use graphical interfaces reduce the time required to deploy,
troubleshoot, and manage the network and allow you to support sophisticated
capabilities without increasing IT head count.
● The switches also support Textview, a full command-line interface (CLI) option
for partners that prefer it.
● Using Auto Smartports intelligence, the switch can detect a network device
connected to any port and automatically configure the optimal security, quality
of service (QoS), and availability on that port.
● Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP) discovers Cisco devices and allows devices to
share critical configuration information, simplifying network setup and
integration.
● Support for Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) allows you to set up and
manage your switches and other Cisco devices remotely from a network management
station, improving IT workflow and mass configurations.

Layer 2 Switching |
|
Spanning Tree Protocol |
Standard 802.1d Spanning Tree Support
Fast convergence using 802.1w (Rapid Spanning Tree [RSTP]), enabled by
default
Multiple spanning tree instances using 802.1s (MSTP). 16 instances are
supported |
|
Port grouping/link aggregation |
Support for IEEE 802.3ad Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP)
●
Up to 32 groups
●
Up to 8 ports per group with 16
candidate ports for each (dynamic) 802.3ad LAG
|
|
VLAN |
Support for up to 4096 VLANs simultaneously Port-based and 802.1Q
tag-based VLANs MAC-based VLAN
Management VLAN
PVE (Private VLAN Edge), also known as Protected Port, with multiple
uplinks
Guest VLAN Unauthenticated VLAN Protocol-based VLAN CPE VLAN
Dynamic VLAN assignment via Radius server along with 802.1x client
authentication |
|
Voice VLAN |
Voice traffic is automatically assigned to a voice-specific VLAN and
treated with appropriate levels of QoS. Auto voice capabilities deliver
network-wide zero touch deployment of voice endpoints and call control
devices. |
|
Multicast TV VLAN |
Multicast TV VLAN allows the single multicast VLAN to be shared in the
network while subscribers remain in separate VLANs. This feature is also
known as Multicast VLAN Registration (MVR). |
|
Q-in-Q |
VLANs transparently cross over a service provider network while
isolating traffic among customers. |
|
GVRP/GARP |
Generic VLAN Registration Protocol (GVRP) and Generic Attribute
Registration Protocol (GARP) enable automatic propagation and
configuration of VLANs in a bridged domain. |
|
Unidirectional Link Detection (UDLD) |
UDLD monitors physical connection to detect unidirectional links caused
by incorrect wiring or port faults to prevent forwarding loops and
blackholing of traffic in switched networks |
|
DHCP Relay at Layer 2 |
Relay of DHCP traffic to DHCP server in a different VLAN. Works with
DHCP Option 82. |
|
IGMP (versions 1, 2, and 3)
snooping |
Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) limits bandwidth-intensive
multicast traffic to only the requesters; supports 1K (1024) and 4K (for
SG500X in native mode) multicast groups (source-specific multicasting is
also supported). |
|
IGMP querier |
IGMP querier is used to support a Layer 2 multicast domain of snooping
switches in the absence of a multicast router. |
|
HOL blocking |
Head-of-line (HOL) blocking. |
|
Jumbo Frames |
Frames up to 9K (9216) bytes in length. |
|
Layer 3 |
|
IPv4 routing |
Wirespeed routing of IPv4 packets
Up to 2K (2048) static routes and up to 256 IP interfaces |
|
Wirespeed IPv6 Static Routing |
Up to 2K (2048) static routes and up to 128 IPv6 interfaces |
|
Layer 3 Interface |
Configuration of layer 3 interface on physical port, LAG, VLAN interface
or Loopback interface |
|
CIDR |
Support for Classless Inter-Domain Routing |
|
RIP v2 (on 500X) |
Support for Routing Information Protocol version 2, for dynamic routing |
|
VRRP (on 500X) |
Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP) delivers improved availability
in a Layer 3 network by providing redundancy of the default gateway
servicing hosts on the network. VRRP versions 2 and 3 are supported. Up
to 255 virtual routers are supported. |
|
DHCP Server |
Switch functions as an IPv4 DHCP Server serving IP addresses for
multiple DHCP pools/scopes
Support for DHCP options |
|
DHCP Relay at Layer 3 |
Relay of DHCP traffic across IP domains. |
|
User Datagram Protocol (UDP) Relay |
Relay of broadcast information across Layer 3 domains for application
discovery or relaying of BOOTP/DHCP packets. |
