L-C3850-12-S-E: Transforming Your Cisco Catalyst 3850 Switch for Advanced Networking

L-C3850-12-S-E is a Cisco license that unlocks the full potential of your Cisco Catalyst 3850 12-port IP Base switch, empowering it to deliver advanced networking capabilities and features. This license enables you to build a robust, secure, and highly scalable network infrastructure, catering to diverse needs of medium to large organizations.

Key Features:

• IP Services: Upgrade your switch from IP Base to IP Services, enabling Layer 3 routing functionalities including support for OSPF, BGP, and other routing protocols. This allows for efficient network traffic management and interconnectivity between different network segments.
• Enhanced Layer 2 Features: Gain advanced functionalities like Port Security, Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP), and Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP). These features improve network stability, redundancy, and scalability.
• Quality of Service (QoS): Prioritize mission-critical traffic for consistent performance and user experience for applications like voice, video conferencing, and real-time data transfer.
• Multicast Routing: Efficiently deliver multimedia content like video conferencing and streaming services to multiple devices simultaneously.
• Network Access Control (NAC): Enforce security policies and restrict unauthorized access to your network based on user identity and device type.
• Advanced Security Features: Implement access control lists (ACLs), intrusion detection systems (IDS), and encryption capabilities to protect your network from cyber threats.
• StackWise Plus: Enable stacking of multiple Catalyst 3850 switches for increased scalability, redundancy, and simplified management.
• High-Density Port Configuration: The 12-port configuration provides ample connectivity for high-density network environments.
• Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) and Command-Line Interface (CLI): Allow for centralized monitoring, configuration, and troubleshooting of your network devices.

Benefits:

• Enhanced Network Functionality: Unlock advanced features like Layer 3 routing, QoS, multicast routing, and advanced security, expanding your network capabilities and supporting diverse applications.
• Improved Network Performance: Optimize data flow and prioritize critical traffic, ensuring consistent performance and user experience.
• Increased Security: Leverage advanced security features and robust access control to protect your network from unauthorized access and cyber threats.
• Simplified Network Management: Enable centralized management and monitoring through SNMP and CLI, reducing administrative overhead and improving operational efficiency.
• Enhanced Scalability and Resiliency: Support growing network needs with high-density port configuration and StackWise Plus technology.
• Future-proof Investment: Provide a long-term solution for evolving networking needs.

Ideal for:

• Medium to large organizations requiring advanced networking features for their Cisco Catalyst 3850 switches.
• Businesses with high-density network environments and diverse application needs, including Layer 3 routing, QoS, multicast capabilities, and advanced security.
• Companies seeking to enhance network security and comply with industry regulations.
• Organizations with limited IT resources needing a centralized and efficient management solution for their network infrastructure.
• Businesses looking for a future-proof investment that can scale with their growing network needs.
