1.3  TOE Overview 
The  TOE  is  the  Cisco  Catalyst  4500  Series  Switches  (4503-E,  4506-E,  4507R+E, 
4510R+E,  4500X  and  4500X-F)  running  IOS  XE  3.5.2E  (herein  after  referred  to  as 
Catalyst Switches). The TOE is a purpose-built, switching and routing platform with OSI 
Layer2 and Layer3 traffic filtering capabilities. 
 
Cisco  IOS  is  a  Cisco-developed highly configurable proprietary operating system that 
provides for efficient and effective routing and switching. Although IOS performs many 
networking functions, this Security Target only addresses the functions that provide for 
the security of the TOE itself as described in Section 1.7 TOE logical scope below. 
 
1.3.1   TOE Evaluated Configuration 
The TOE consists of any one of a number of hardware configurations, each running the 
same version of IOS XE software.  The Catalyst 4500 Series Switches chassis provides 
power, cooling, and backplane for the Supervisor Engine, line cards, and service modules 
(SM)
.  The Supervisor Engines run the IOS XE software.  The evaluated configurations 
consist of the following components (e.g. at least one of the listed chassis, at least one 
supervisor card running IOS-XE 3.5.2E software and at least one line card):
