Frequently Asked Questions

We will recommend based on capacity and feature needs.

Q. Does the CX 8360 support MACsec?

Yes — the CX 8360 v2 supports line-rate MACsec encryption on select ports, protecting traffic between switches and across site links. Combined with AOS-CX dynamic segmentation it supports zero-trust designs.
