Comprehensive Security with Cisco TrustSec

The Cisco Catalyst 4500E Supervisor Engine 7-E is a validated component of the Cisco TrustSec

2.1

architecture. This allows the Cisco Catalyst 4500E Supervisor Engine 7-E to be transparently integrated into

campus switching environments for a comprehensive security solution based on Cisco TrustSec. The Cisco

Catalyst Supervisor Engine 7-E is a foundational element of the Cisco TrustSec architecture with support for the

following functionalities:

●

Device sensor: The device sensor on the Cisco Catalyst 4500E Supervisor Engine 7-E enables the ability

to recognize the devices connected to the switch. This feature also interoperates with the Cisco Identity

Services Engine, providing for centralized view of all devices' access the network in a scalable manner.

When combined with AutoSmartPorts (ASP), it also provides the ability to dynamically apply policies on the

switch based on the device type. For more information, visit

xml/ios/sec_usr_aaa/configuration/15-1sg/sec-dev-sensor.html.

●

Identity-based networking: The Cisco Catalyst 4500E Supervisor Engine 7-E has the most rich and

robust set of IEEE 802.1X-based identity features to provide the right level of authenticated access to

users. It also simplifies identity deployments with features such as Flexible Authentication, WebAuth, and

MAC Authentication Bypass (MAB), as well as open mode for undisrupted operations while providing

visibility of network access. The identity features also provide integrated support for IP telephony. It also

provides for flexible authorization policies with VLAN assignment and dynamic ACLs. For more information,

●

Network device authentication: Cisco TrustSec network device authentication provides for an

authenticated network infrastructure, minimizing the risk of rogue access to the network using unauthorized

network devices.

●

Data confidentiality and integrity: The Cisco Catalyst 4500E Supervisor Engine 7-E supports line-rate

10G MACsec encryption based on IEEE 802.1ae with no additional latency. It supports both switch-to-

switch and host-to-switch hardware-based encryption on all uplink ports and all WS-X47XX series line

cards. For more information, visit

c.html.

●

Role-based access control: The Cisco Catalyst 4500E Supervisor Engine 7-E has hardware support for

Cisco TrustSec Secure Group Access (SGA). TrustSec SGA simplifies access control security by defining it

in terms of user roles instead of topology-based IP access control lists (ACLs). The Cisco Catalyst 4500E

Supervisor Engine 7-E has hardware support for secure group tagging (SGT) for classifying traffic from

users based on roles, as well as secure group access control lists (SGACLs), which are role-based ACLs

to apply access control to traffic with the secure group tag. For more information, visit:
