Modern Needs:
Real-Time Example:
A financial company upgraded from legacy Catalyst 2960 to Cisco Catalyst 9300 with SD-Access to support BYOD, zero-trust policies, and automated segmentation per department.
Why It’s Popular:
Use Case:
An MNC replaced 20 remote site switches with Cisco 9500 core and 9300 access switches controlled via DNA Center—reducing configuration errors by 80%.
Bonus:
Support for StackPower and UADP ASIC for future-proof programmability.
Aruba Evolution Highlights:
Use Case:
A hospital chain implemented Aruba CX switches in new branches for easy provisioning and zero-touch deployment using NetEdit.
Why It’s Trusted:
Modern Switches Support:
Real-Time Example:
A government agency configured TrustSec policies on their Catalyst 9400 switches to block lateral movement across critical departments.
What’s Changing:
Use Case:
An IT team reduced Mean Time to Resolution (MTTR) by 60% after integrating Cisco DNA Assurance to troubleshoot switch-to-host issues.
Enterprise switching has evolved from being just a physical connectivity tool to a smart, programmable, and secure platform. Whether it’s Cisco 9K’s SD-Access or Aruba CX’s automation-first design, businesses today can build networks that adapt, protect, and scale.
