All of these switches are software upgradeable. Customers who want to take advantage of
the Enterprise Edition features for the Catalyst 2900 series XL product line can simply
and inexpensively upgrade their switches with the Catalyst 2900 series XL Enterprise
Edition Software Upgrade Kit---in either single license or a 10-license arrangement.
The Standard Edition Catalyst 2900 series XL supports the same features as the original
Catalyst 2900 series XL switch family. Each switch includes features such as port-based
VLANs, Fast EtherChannel technology for high-speed uplinks, and CGMP Fast Leave for
multicast management. They can be managed using the built-in Web console, SNMP, or command
line interface.
