The Cisco Supervisor Engine 32 Programmable Intelligent Services Accelerator (Part Number: WS-S32-GE-PISA=) serves as a central control processor for high-performance routing systems, typically designed for use in Cisco Catalyst 6500 Series switches. It is equipped with a Programmable Intelligent Services Accelerator (PISA) which boosts its ability to handle complex network operations, delivering advanced traffic management and optimised network performance. This supervisory engine is intended to enhance the scalability and resilience of a network, especially in scenarios requiring advanced policy enforcement and classification of traffic.
One of its key components, the Cisco Policy Feature Card 3B (PFC3B), is essential for advanced Layer 3, 4, and 7 networking features. By integrating this card, the product supports higher-level services including quality of service (QoS), security measures, and protocol-based routing enforcement on network traffic. This ensures the visibility and control necessary for sophisticated enterprise networks.
The WS-S32-GE-PISA= offers both Gigabit Ethernet support and significant routing capabilities, compatible with multiple protocols. It supports hardware-based forwarding to improve throughput and reduces latency, helping ensure effective network processing. Its architecture is geared towards providing flexible service prioritisation and advanced packet inspection features, making it suitable for both traditional network traffic and advanced service networks. The integration of these features allows for improved scalability, meeting the needs of growing and dynamic networking environments.
