Table 1 Key Features and Benefits
Features Benefits
Security
Stateful inspection firewall.
The Cisco IOS Firewall
includes context-based access control for dynamic
firewall filtering, denial-of-service detection and
prevention, Java blocking, and real-time alerts
Allows internal users to access the Internet with secure,
per-application-based, dynamic access control while
preventing unauthorized Internet users from accessing
the internal LAN
High-performance VPN encryption.
IPSec DES and 3DES
VPN module for high-speed, hardware-based encryption
Provides high-speed hardware-assisted encryption up to
T1/E1 performance
Enables creation of wire-speed VPNs by providing
industry-standard data privacy, integrity, and
authenticity as data traverses public networks
Device authentication and key management.
IKE, X.509v3
digital certification, support for Certificate Enrollment
Protocol (CEP) with certificate authorities (CAs) such as
Verisign and Entrust
Ensures proper identity and authenticity of devices and
data. Enables scalability to very large IPSec networks
through automated key management.
VPN tunneling with IPSec, GRE, L2TP, L2F
Choice of standards-based tunneling methods to create
VPNs for IP and non-IP traffic
Allows any standards-based IPSec or L2TP client to
interoperate with Cisco IOS tunneling technologies
Cisco Easy VPN Remote
Allows the router to act as remote VPN client and have
VPN policies pushed down from the VPN concentrator
Cisco Easy VPN Server
Allows the router to terminate remote access VPNs
initiated by mobile and remote workers running Cisco
VPN client software on PCs; and allows the router to
terminate site-site VPNs initiated by IOS routers using
the Cisco Easy VPN Remote feature
Cisco SDM
Simplifies router and security configuration through
smart wizards to enable customers to quickly and easily
deploy, configure and monitor a Cisco access router
without requiring knowledge of Cisco IOS Command
Line Interface (CLI).
Advanced QoS
Quality of Service (QoS).
(CAR, policy routing, LLQ, WFQ,
PQ/CBWFQ, GTS, FRTS, RSVP, DiffServ)
Allocates and optimizes bandwidth to priority
applications for improved performance
All-in-One Solution
Device integration.
Integrated advanced routing, firewall,
encryption, VPN tunnel server in a single device.
Reduces costs and simplifies management compared to
solutions based upon multiple separate devices
Enhanced Management
IEEE 802.1Q VLAN
Enables efficient traffic separation, provides better
bandwidth utilization, and alleviates scaling issues by
logically segmenting the physical LAN infrastructure
into different subnets so that packets are switched only
between ports within the same VLAN
