Cisco StackWise-160 Technology
The Cisco Catalyst 3650 supports an optional stacking module that
is based on the Cisco StackWise-160 technology. Cisco StackWise-160
technology is built on the highly successful industry-leading
StackWise technology, which is a premium stacking architecture.
StackWise-160 has a stack bandwidth of 160 Gbps. StackWise‑160 uses
Cisco IOS Software SSO for providing resiliency within the stack.
The stack behaves as a single switching unit that is managed by an
“active” switch elected by the member switches. The active switch
automatically elects a standby switch within the stack. The active
switch creates and updates all the switching/routing/wireless
information and constantly synchronizes that information with the
standby switch. If the active switch fails, the standby switch
assumes the role of the active switch and continues to the keep the
stack operational. Access points continue to remain connected
during an active-to-standby switchover. A working stack can accept
new members or delete old ones without service interruption.
StackWise-160 creates a highly resilient single unified system of
up to nine switches, providing simplified management using a single
IP address, single Telnet session, single CLI, auto-version
checking, auto-upgrading, auto-configuration, and more.
StackWise-160 also enables local switching in Cisco Catalyst 3650
Series Switches
Cisco Catalyst Smart Operations are a comprehensive set of
capabilities that simplify LAN deployment, configuration, and
troubleshooting. In addition to adaptive, always-on technologies
such as StackWise-160, Cisco Catalyst Smart Operations enable
zero-touch installation and replacement of switches, fast upgrade,
and ease of troubleshooting with reduced operational cost. Cisco
Catalyst Smart Operations are a set of features that includes Smart
Install, Auto Smartports, Smart Configuration and Smart
Troubleshooting to enhance operational excellence:
●Cisco Smart Install is a transparent plug-and-play technology to
configure the Cisco IOS Software image and switch configuration
without user intervention. Smart Install utilizes dynamic IP
address allocation and the assistance of other switches to
facilitate installation, providing transparent network plug and
play.
●Cisco Auto Smartports provide automatic configuration as devices
connect to the switch port, allowing auto‑detection and plug and
play of the device onto the network.
●Cisco Smart Troubleshooting is an extensive array of debug
diagnostic commands and system health checks within the switch,
including Generic Online Diagnostics (GOLD) and Onboard Failure
Logging (OBFL).
●Embedded Event Manager (EEM) is a powerful and flexible feature
that provides real-time network event detection and onboard
automation. Using EEM, customers can adapt the behavior of their
network devices to align with their business needs. This feature
requires the IP Base feature set.
