About this content

Learn how Cisco IOx combines Cisco IOS XE and Linux to securely host and manage applications and containers on supported industrial Ethernet switches.


Cisco IOx Network Infrastructure Products

Provides a concise overview of Cisco IOx as an integrated application framework combining Cisco IOS and Linux for secure hosting on network platforms.

IOx Applications

Provides guidance on configuring the Ap1/1 interface as a trunk on Cisco Catalyst IE3400 Rugged, IE3400 Heavy Duty, and IE3300 Rugged Series Switches for IOx applications. Details VLAN configuration prerequisites, including assigning non-default VLANs and matching allowed VLANs on the trunk, and emphasizes enabling IOx on the switch after network setup.

Deploy IOx Applications

Provides comprehensive guidelines and procedures for deploying IOx applications on Cisco Catalyst IE3400 Rugged, IE3400 Heavy Duty, and IE3300 Rugged Series Switches. It outlines prerequisites, supported platforms, configuration of network interfaces, Docker runtime options, application resource profiles, and the installation, activation, and startup process using both Cisco IOx Local Manager (GUI) and IOS-XE CLI methods.

L3NAT for IOx Applications

Details the L3NAT feature for IOx applications on IE3x00 switches, which uses the switch management IP as a proxy to reduce the need for multiple public IP addresses. It outlines how L3NAT-IOx translates private IPs to public IPs for seamless communication between internal applications and external servers, supported only for the Cisco Cyber Vision application with specific configuration and licensing requirements.
