Building your base policy from your switch, then handing off the rest of policy creation to your security team #TFDx at #CiscoLive

No sampling here, every packet is monitored by the DPU. #TFDx at #CiscoLive

800Gbps IPSEC from the Nexus Smart Switch NPU for various types of data center interconnect. #TFDx at #CiscoLive

Safe guards for deploying new security policies to both optimize policies, checking for shadow policies and flagging shadow policies for removal, and making sure a policy won't break an operating network. #TFDx at #CiscoLive

Smart Switches -- allowing for a simplified security operations in the datacenter, let the switch be the firewall. Let the smart switch be both your switch and a distributed firewall at 800Gbps. #TFDx at #CiscoLive

Not ready to use the DPU? Nexus Smart Switches can be deployed in a Network Mode where the DPU is disabled, and a datacenter fabric can be deployed and configured through Nexus Dashboard, NX-API, or traditional CLI. #TFDx at #CiscoLive

1 set of hardware, 2 teams to manage it. Nexus Dashboard (NPU only) for the network ops team and Hypershield controller for the network security team (DPU only), with relevant information displayed for each other team. Data can be displayed to each dashboard #TFDx at #CiscoLive

Smart switches utilize the NPU for network traffic, and the DPU for filtering/security with minimal disruption to how traffic is routed. #TFDx at #CiscoLive

Nexus Smart Switch models for future deployments. #TFDx at #CiscoLive

Live protect policies can be applied in either monitor mode or enforcement mode. Deploy, analyze, then enforce #TFDx at #CiscoLive

Vulnerability deployment using shields to cover the patching gap when you have a large number of switches to patch and automating the removal of the shield once a post PSIRT patch is available and applied. #TFDx at #CiscoLive
