Cisco

Discovery and lifecycle data for Cisco routers, switches, firewalls, and wireless across the enterprise estate.

Lifecycle Support

Overview

Cisco remains the most common backbone of enterprise networks. Netos treats Cisco devices as a primary feed for the network Source of Truth — pulling identity, hardware, software, and lifecycle attributes into a single, normalized model.

What Netos ingests

  • Chassis, line cards, transceivers, and serial numbers
  • Software image, version, and last-modified dates
  • Contract, end-of-sale, and end-of-support data from DevNet
  • Reachability, status, and basic configuration metadata

Activation

Cisco feeds activate through agent-based collectors or via existing discovery platforms (NetBox, IPF, SolarWinds, Nautobot). Contact us to discuss the best fit for your environment.

Use cases

Business cases that build on the Cisco integration.

Modelling a 6-to-2 data centre consolidation with multi-year OPEX shape

Six data centers into two, with kit, contracts, power, and rack costs already attached. When the move schedule slips, the forecast moves with it.

Modelling a Cisco Catalyst 3850 to 9300 refresh end-to-end

Every 3850 stack in the estate, with its EoSL date, candidate 9300 replacement, and refresh-year CapEx attached. The model the board signs off rebuilds itself when data changes.

Modelling an MPLS-to-SD-WAN migration with cost and timing trade-offs

Site by site, circuit by circuit — MPLS termination charges, SD-WAN edge CapEx, and overlap OpEx attached. A transition plan the steering committee can sign off.
