Cisco Catalyst 2960-X，XR的版本特性及区别？

Q. What Cisco IOS Software feature sets are supported in Cisco Catalyst 2960-X Series Switches?
A. The Cisco Catalyst 2960-X Series come with a common universal image and supports LAN Lite, LAN Base, and IP Lite feature sets, as shown in Table 1.

Q. What is the difference between the Cisco IOS Software feature sets?
A. The differences between the three Cisco IOS Software feature sets are:
● LAN Lite feature set has entry-level Layer 2 features and is targeted at midmarket deployments

● LAN Base feature set comes with advanced Layer 2 features and is typically targeted at enterprise customers

● IP Lite feature set comes with enterprise access Layer 3 features and is typically targeted at enterprise customers

Q. How can I tell the difference between IP Lite, LAN Base, and LAN Lite switches for the Cisco Catalyst 2960-X Series?
A. The Cisco Catalyst 2960-X Series front panel sticker has the feature set name. From the rear of the Cisco Catalyst 2960-X Series Switches, the LAN Lite models do not support stacking. The left side does not have a location for a stacking module to be inserted.
From the Cisco IOS Software command line, there are two ways to tell which software image the switch has.
● The last letter in the product ID. If the last letter is “-L,” it’s LAN Base. If it’s “-LL,” it’s LAN Lite. If it’s “-I,” it’s IP Lite

For example:

WS-C2960XR-48FPS-I is IP Lite

WS-C2960X-48LPS-L is LAN Base

WS-C2960X-48TS-LL is LAN Lite

● The output from the “show license” Cisco IOS Software command-line interface (CLI) command. If LAN Base is being used, that will be the active license. If it’s LAN Lite, that will be the active license. In the following example output, LAN Base is the active license

Q. What are the notable hardware differences between the LAN Base and LAN Lite switches in 2960-X switches?
A. The Cisco Catalyst 2960-X switches support LAN Base and LAN Lite software feature sets. Following are the notable hardware components present only in LAN Base switches:
● Ease of management with Cisco FlexStack-Plus and FlexStack-Extended

● Power over Ethernet/Power over Ethernet Plus (PoE/PoE+) capabilities

● Power redundancy support via Cisco Redundant Power System 2300 (RPS 2300)

Q. What features does IP Lite bring to the 2960-XR switch models?
A. IP Lite introduced enterprise access Layer 3 features to the 2960-XR switch models. IP Lite is subset of IP Base features. Some of the IP Lite features are:
● Routing Information Protocol (RIP) v1

● Routing Information Protocol (RIP) v2

● Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) v2 stub

● Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) v3 stub

● Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (EIGRP) stub

● Equal-cost routing

● Hot Standby Router Protocol (HSRP)

● Protocol Independent Multicast PIM (Sparse Mode, Dense Mode, Sparse Dense Mode, Source Specific Multicast) stub

● Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP) for IPv4

● Private VLAN

● IPv6 First Hop Security source guard

● Per-VLAN and per-port policers
