Cisco Catalyst 9600 Series Supervisor Engine 1 and Line Cards
● The UADP* 3.0 Application-Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC) is future-ready for next-generation technologies, with a programmable pipeline, microengine capabilities, and template-based configurable allocation of Layer 2, Layer 3, forwarding, ACL, and Quality-of-Service (QoS) entries.
● It is the first ASIC to support double-width HW tables. This provides equivalent table size and processing performance for IPv4 and IPv6.
● The Supervisor Engine 1, with a 2.0-GHz Intel® x86 CPU with 8 cores, provides up to 960 GB of SATA SSD local storage for container-based application hosting.
● Console supports mini USB and RJ-45 connectivity.
● Supports 2 x USB 3.0 ports.
● Management port supports RJ-45 (1 GE) and SFP+ (10 GE).
● Up to 108 MB of buffer (36 MB of unified buffer per ASIC).
● Line-rate, hardware-based Flexible NetFlow (FNF) delivers flow collection for up to 294,000 flows.
● IPv6 support in hardware provides wire-rate forwarding for IPv6 networks.
● Dual-stack support for IPv4 and IPv6 and dynamic hardware forwarding table allocations enable IPv4-to-IPv6 migration.
● Flexible routing (IPv4, IPv6, and multicast) tables, Layer 2 tables, ACL tables, and QoS tables.
