IOS NBAR/NBAR2 support?

[dallen00111111]

I am wondering if NBAR or NBAR2 is supported on Catalyst 2960 switches?  The pertinent versions are LANLite K9 12.2(50) SE2, LANLite K9 12.2(55) SE5, Universal K9 12.2(53) SE2, and LANBase K9 12.2(50) SE5.  If someone can point me to the applicable documentation, that will be just fine with me.

Thanks, in advance.

Hi

It's not supported on Catalyst switches. Here the official Cisco documentation: http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/collateral/ios-nx-os-software/network-based-application-recognition-nbar/qa_C67-723689.html

Q. Which platforms support NBAR2?

A. NBAR2 is supported on Cisco Network devices such as ISR-G2, ASR1K , ASA-CX and Wireless LAN Controller.

Thanks

As a follow up, is it supported on the ASA's? I didn't see them listed in the supported platforms when I did a quick look.

ASA doesn't support NBAR. You can use asa-cx or do some Application Visibility and Control with Firepower. 

Thanks
