Specifications

   Description
  • The Cisco N3548-ALGK9 Algo?Boost License is a powerful performance upgrade for the Nexus 3548 Series switches, specifically engineered to deliver ultra-low latency and advanced hardware-accelerated capabilities. By activating this license, you unlock Warp Mode, Warp?SPAN, and hardware NAT, enabling sub-microsecond switching, precision traffic mirroring, and built-in buffer monitoring—all essential for environments where every nanosecond counts. This perpetual license elevates the Nexus?3548 switch to its maximum throughput and visibility potential. 
   Features
  • Warp Mode (˜200?ns latency): Achieve ultra-fast forwarding by consolidating operations within the ASIC, significantly reducing network delay. 
  • Warp SPAN: Enables near-instantaneous traffic replication (as low as 50?ns delay) to designated ports for real-time monitoring and analysis. 
  • Hardware NAT (IPv4 & IPv6): Offloads network address translation to hardware for faster, low-overhead routing. 
  • Active Buffer Monitoring & Latency Measurement: Provides deep visibility into switch performance and buffer utilization. 
  • Advanced Traffic Filters: Enables precision packet filtering for optimized monitoring and analysis. 
   Specifications
  • Product Type: Software Licensing (Performance Enhancement)
  • License Name: Algo?Boost License
  • Manufacturer Part Number: N3548-ALGK9 (also available as N3548-ALGK9=) 
  • Supported Platforms: Cisco Nexus 3548 Series switches (e.g., N3K-C3548P-XL, N3K-C3548P-10GX) running NX-OS 7.0(3)I6(1) or later 
  • License Term: Perpetual (non-expiring)

  • Licensing Prerequisites: Standalone activation via CLI or Cisco DCNM; no additional licenses required 
   Ideal Uses
  • High-Frequency Trading (HFT): Deliver microsecond-class forwarding speed for financial and algorithmic trading applications. 
  • Real-Time Network Monitoring: Leverage Warp SPAN for zero-impact traffic mirroring during performance-sensitive monitoring. 
  • Latency-Critical Environments: Ideal for backbones and edge networks where predictability and ultra-low delay are paramount.
  • Advanced Traffic Engineering: Utilize hardware-assisted NAT and buffer insight tools to enhance network intelligence and visibility.
   Why Choose This Product?
  • Sub-Microsecond Performance: Warp Mode brings latencies down to ~200?ns—exceptional for mission-critical applications. 
  • High-Precision Monitoring: Warp SPAN enables traffic capture with near-zero impact on forwarding performance. 
  • Hardware-Driven Acceleration: Offloads NAT, filtering, and monitoring to ASIC for maximum efficiency. 
  • Perpetual Licensing: One-time investment with no recurring fees. 
  • Cisco Reliability: Authentic Cisco license, supported via enterprise-grade distribution and services.
