Overall Satisfaction with Cisco Catalyst Center
We upgrade the iOS and everything from the DC itself so we don't have to log into individual device and upgrade the iOS and distribute and update all the software.
Pros
- We saw that all the non access devices, it can easily manage, pull up the config, upgrade the iOS, pushing the template and everything it can do even it can manage all the access points for the wireless controller as well. And you can upgrade the wireless controller as well.
Cons
- We should able to add Nexus device because we have to purchase a separate tool. So if Cisco can add the Nexus device also in DA, that will be a one common tool for our entire organization. It would be easier not to manage two separate tools other than manually 1D.
- It save the time, it save your sleep and everything.
- Negative impact is it doesn't support all the devices.
- Cisco Catalyst 9800 Series Wireless Controllers and Cisco Identity Services Engine (ISE)
We love Cisco ISE. Cisco's new controllers, 9800 controllers. They are awesome. Completely different than the old 5520 and 5508. So new product with Cisco is bringing like 9, 9 93, 3, 600 gig port switches. They're awesome.
