Continued Innovations through Infrastructure Services
Modular Open Application Platform, Cisco IOS XE Software
Cisco IOS XE Software is the next-generation operating system for the Cisco Catalyst 4500E Supervisor Engines,
beginning with the Supervisor 7-E. Cisco continues to evolve Cisco IOS Software to support next-generation
switching hardware and provide increased architectural flexibility to deliver quick adoption of future Cisco
Borderless Networks services, while making sure of customer investment protection in Cisco IOS Software.
Cisco IOS XE Software provides the following customer benefits:
●
Cisco IOS XE Software provides a modern operating system that can take advantage of the multicore CPU
architecture of the next-generation Cisco Catalyst 4500E system with Supervisor 7-E.
●
Cisco IOS XE Software makes sure of customer investment protection in the existing Cisco IOS Software.
With Cisco IOS XE Software, today's Cisco IOS Software becomes a “Cisco IOS Software package” with a
consistent feature set and similar operational user interface allowing a transparent migration experience.
●
Cisco IOS XE Software supports service virtualization capability that allows the Cisco Catalyst 4500E to
host applications other than Cisco IOS Software, such as customer-written applications or third-party
applications in parallel with Cisco IOS Software. The hosted application can communicate with Cisco IOS
Software to use its rich feature sets. This benefit allows a customer to quickly adopt new technologies
using proven code, while keeping Cisco IOS Software simple and robust. Cisco IOS XE Software enables
the Cisco Catalyst 4500E to be an open service platform and is a primary anchor to enable future Cisco
Borderless Networks innovations.
Best-in-Class Resiliency
The Cisco Catalyst 4500E Series was designed for excellent nonstop communications with noninterrupted
hardware switching. With Cisco IO XE Software, customers continue to reap the benefit of this best-in-class
resiliency in various ways.
ISSU allows you to upgrade or downgrade complete Cisco IOS Software images with minimal (less than 200
msec) to no disruption to the network when using a redundant Cisco Catalyst 4500E Series system with dual
Supervisor Engines 7-E. Facilitating rapid, nondisruptive software upgrade for new line cards, new power supplies,
new features, or bug fixes, ISSU offers continuous packet forwarding during the supervisor-engine switchover
running different Cisco IOS Software releases.
