Q What is the primary function of the WS-F6K-PFC3B?
A The WS-F6K-PFC3B, a key component of the Catalyst 6500 Series, is designed to enhance and enforce network policies, providing high-performance Layer 3 classification, forwarding, and quality of service (QoS) capabilities.
Q How does the WS-F6K-PFC3B improve network efficiency?
A By enabling advanced QoS, security, and policy enforcement functions directly in hardware, the WS-F6K-PFC3B offloads these tasks from the supervisor engine, thus improving overall network performance and efficiency.
Q Can the WS-F6K-PFC3B be used in existing Catalyst 6500 setups?
A Yes, the WS-F6K-PFC3B is designed for backward compatibility with existing Catalyst 6500 Series chassis and supervisor engines, allowing for seamless integration and upgrade paths in legacy environments.
