The Cisco Multilayer Switch Feature Card 2 (WS-F6K-MSFC2) is designed to provide advanced routing and switching capabilities for Cisco Catalyst 6000 series switches. It integrates high-performance routing features directly into the switch, effectively transforming it from a Layer 2 switch into a multilayer switch capable of handling Layer 3 routing functions.
This plug-in module is built to fit into the chassis of compatible Cisco Catalyst switches, offering substantial routing performance. It delivers enhanced routing functionalities, such as full support for OSPF (Open Shortest Path First), EIGRP (Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol), and BGP (Border Gateway Protocol). Moreover, the WS-F6K-MSFC2 also supports a wide range of additional features, including Policy-Based Routing (PBR), Multi-Protocol Label Switching (MPLS), and Access Control Lists (ACLs), ensuring versatility for both enterprise-class networking demands and complex data centre environments.
The hardware also supports Quality of Service (QoS) mechanisms, which help in prioritising network traffic, thus ensuring that critical services such as voice, video, and data transmissions run smoothly. With its fast, reliable routing capabilities, the WS-F6K-MSFC2 is engineered for high-traffic environments, taking advantage of Cisco’s multilayer architecture to streamline both local and wide-area network traffic flows.
Other key features include full support for IPv6 routing, enabling your network to stay up-to-date with the newest internet protocol standards. Designed to promote high availability and dedicated traffic management, this module is essential for organisations seeking to maximise the capabilities of their Cisco Catalyst 6000 series switches.
