What's new in Cisco Packet Tracer 9.0
Packet Tracer 9.0 open beta is a major update featuring the following new network devices :
- Switching: A new Catalyst IE-3400 (IE-3400-8P2S-A) rugged multilayer switch for industrial environment with 10 gigabit ethernet ports
- Security: A new ISA-3000 (ISA-3000-2C2F-K9) industrial firewall featuring two 1GbE SFP ports, two 10/100/1000Base-T ports, and one management port.
- Servers:
- A new Data Historian server which can store date received from a CIP data collector in local databases.
- A new Cyber Observers server which acts as a device emulating cyber threats and mitigations in the network. The included dashboard shows network vulnerabilities detected in the network by configuring network device firmware versions with a locally configurable threat database.
Sample industrial network
The following industrial network diagram features three catalyst IE-3400 industrial switches connected in a single-mode optical loop connecting industrial PLC devices. The optical loop is connected to an ISA-3000 firewall securing industrial network and segmenting PLC from industrial data servers and workstations. A data historian server stores PLC data displayed as charts on a supervisory workstation.
Labs provided in packet Tracer 9.0.0
The following pkt lab files are provided for free in the C:\Program Files\Cisco Packet Tracer 9.0.0\saves directory. They demonstrate the capabilities of Packet Tracer 9.0 and are designed to help better understand how the emulated network devices and endpoints can be used efficiently.
