Cisco LAN Lite IOS

Anybody know what features are excluded on this IOS image?

Specifically I want it to be able to lock MAC addresses to ports

It would be nice to know if I am missing out on anything else major though

What hardware is it running on, and which branch 12.x/15.x?
And I'll look it up for you on the feature comparison.

Surely it would have port security?

Doesnt look like you will miss much if your looking for a small / medium switch. Sadly thoe I bet it wont take long for you to find a feature your missing or a limitation.

Although the limitation of no ACL's would be a poblem for me. You cant also downgrade or upgrade the IOS.

Went out and bought them anyway, they are just going to be used at a remote site, really don't need anything fancy except the mac lockdown which they have

Saved quite a lot of money by going to the lan lite model

How much was the difference?

It can be a fairly decent saving, based on pricing from my supplier:

2960-24-S (LanLite, 24 10/100 ports) = £220ish
2960-24TC-L (LanBase 24 10/100 + 2 GigE) = £350ish

That is based on us buying 10 at a time though

I paid £250 for a 24 port 10/100 with 2 Gb ports
