The Cisco WS-S32-GE-PISA Catalyst 6500 Supervisor Engine 32 is a programmable Intelligent Services Accelerator (PISA) with multi-gigabit deep packet inspection feature card. The Cisco WS-S32-GE-PISA enables networking hardware acceleration of services with appplications, integrated security, and enterprise networking manageability accross customers WAN routing.  The Cisco WS-S32-GE-PISA incorporates all the functionality of the Catalyst 6500 Supervisor Engine 32. 2 uplink options are available: 8-port Gigabit Ethernet Small Form Pluggable (SFP)-based uplinks and 2-port 10-Gigabit Ethernet XENPAK-based uplinks.

Cisco WS-S32-GE-PISA Summary

• Hardware accelerated Stateful Application Intelligence (SAI) proactively optimized network traffic for application delivery based on more than 100 different protocols
• Hardware accelerated Flexible Packet Matching (FPM) delivers protection against notable worms/viruses and Day Zero attacks
• Manage SAI and FPM from a central management node using Cisco Quality-of-Service Policy Manager 4.0 and Cisco Security Manager 3.1 (for SAI and FPM, respectively)
• Policy Feature Card 3B (PFC3B) extends Cisco Catalyst 6500 Series Supervisor Engine 720 advanced services into the access layer. When the Supervisor 32 is used in conjunction with Supervisor 720, they provide an end to end Catalyst 6500 solution for customers looking to simplify their network operations and management through feature consistency
• Industry leading integrated security through support of hardware-based rate limiters, port based access lists, and other authentication and threat defense features insures network availability and the integrity of communications.
• Sub-second Layer 2 Stateful Switch Over (SSO), gateway load-balancing protocols, and proactive detection and prevention of network equipment failures using Generic Online Diagnostics (GOLD) ensures business continuity. 

The PISA on the Supervisor Engine 32 PISA provides hardware acceleration of services such as network-based application recognition (NBAR) and flexible packet matching (FPM) at multigigabit speeds, in addition to the management and control plane functions traditionally provided by the multilayer switch feature card (MSFC). The Supervisor Engine 32 PISA is offered with the Policy Feature Card 3B (PFC3B), to ensure feature and performance compatibility with the Cisco Catalyst 6500 Supervisor Engine 32. Two uplink options are available: 8-port Gigabit Ethernet Small Form-Factor Pluggable (SFP)-based uplinks and 2-port 10 Gigabit Ethernet XENPAK-based uplinks. In addition to these modular uplinks, the Supervisor Engine 32 PISA also includes one port of 10/100/1000 RJ-45 for ease of network management. All ports on the Supervisor Engine 32 PISA can be active at the same time.

All classic line cards and all CEF256 line cards (without a DFC) are supported with the Supervisor Engine 32 PISA.  The WS-S32-GE-PISA is capable of accelerating intelligent services such as NBAR and FPM at 2-Gbps speeds for Internet mix (IMIX) traffic. The WS-S32-GE-PISA PISA also provides support for OC48/STM16 interfaces for WAN/MAN deployments. A future software release of the Supervisor Engine 32 PISA will provide the capability to define traffic that can be redirected to the PISA for acceleration, essentially allowing these networks to operate at multigigabit speeds.
