Product Overview

Cisco

SPS service provider switches deliver cost-effective Metro Ethernet access solutions. These products are

optimized for multitenant units (MTUs) and multidwelling units (MDUs) in which the service provider delivers triple-

play (voice over IP [VoIP], video, and data) services to multiple businesses or homes in close proximity.

The Cisco SPS208G 8-Port 10/100 + 2-Port Gigabit SP Switch (Figure 1), with its combination of intelligence and

small size, is ideal for space-constrained environments in which security and uptime are important. It offers a Gigabit

copper or Small Form-Factor Pluggable (SFP) module for an optional optical interface for connecting to the core

network.

The Cisco SPS switches facilitate the delivery of multiple services over a Layer 2 network with support for Q-in-Q

stacking. This feature allows customer VLANs to be kept separate across the service provider backbone. Also, for

efficient delivery of multicast traffic (such as video) to multiple customers, these switches provide support for a

variation of Multicast VLAN Registration (MVR).

Network security is a primary concern for service providers, and the SPS switches deliver a number of advanced

features that alleviate this concern. Support for dynamic Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) inspection eliminates

the man-in-the-middle attack. IP Source Guard prevents a subscriber (or malicious user) from using an IP address

not assigned to them. DHCP Guard keeps rogue devices from behaving like Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol

(DHCP) servers. Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) Root Guard prevents a rogue spanning tree device from advertising

that it should be the root bridge, thereby having the spanning tree network compromised by an outside device.

Unauthorized access to the network is protected through 802.1X port and multisession authentication and MAC

filtering/port security. The 802.1X standard requires clients to authenticate themselves before the port will pass data

for them. An additional security feature is access control lists (ACLs), which restrict network use to certain users,
