Description
Advanced Wireless Features for Services Router
The C1861E-SRST-F/K9 Cisco 1861E 8-Ports Integrated Services Router is an enterprise-class router that includes advanced wireless features.
The 1861E comes with integrated 802.11n wireless capabilities, which supports 2×2 MIMO technology, providing high-performance wireless connectivity with support for speeds up to 300Mbps. The router also supports multiple wireless modes such as Access Point, Client, and Repeater mode, which provides flexibility in deployment options.
The router also includes Cisco Mobility Express, which is a simplified, secure, and cost-effective wireless LAN solution for small to medium-sized businesses. Cisco Mobility Express can be configured and managed through an intuitive web interface, and it supports features such as guest access, wireless intrusion prevention, and location-based services.
Additionally, the 1861E supports Cisco FlexConnect, which is a feature that allows the router to act as a wireless LAN controller, which can manage and configure multiple wireless access points. This feature allows for central management of wireless networks, which helps to improve network scalability and security.
High Availability and Redundancy
The C1861E-SRST-F/K9 Cisco 1861E 8-Ports Integrated Services Router includes various high availability and redundancy features to ensure that the router can continue to function in the event of a hardware failure or other disruption.
One of the key high availability feature is the Cisco SRST (Survivable Remote Site Telephony) feature, which provides call-processing redundancy in the event of a wide area network (WAN) failure. In case of a WAN failure, SRST allows the router to take over the call-processing functions of a Cisco Unified Communications Manager (UCM) at the remote site, ensuring that phone calls can still be placed and received.
Additionally, the 1861E supports Cisco Stateful Switchover (SSO) for the Router Processor (RP) and Switch Processor (SP). This feature allows for the non-stop forwarding of data traffic, even in the event of a RP or SP failure.
The router also includes a number of redundancy features to ensure that power and cooling systems continue to function in the event of a failure. The 1861E is equipped with a redundant power supply and a redundant fan, which helps to ensure that the router continues to operate even if one of these components fails.
Troubleshooting and Maintenance
The C1861E-SRST-F/K9 Cisco 1861E 8-Ports Integrated Services Router includes various troubleshooting and maintenance features to help ensure that the router operates properly and to diagnose and resolve any issues that may arise.
One of the key troubleshooting features is the Cisco IOS Software command-line interface (CLI) which allows administrators to access the router’s operating system and configure, monitor, and troubleshoot the router. The CLI provides a wide range of commands that can be used to check the status of various components, view log messages, and perform other troubleshooting tasks.
Additionally, the 1861E includes the Cisco IOS Embedded Event Manager (EEM) which is a powerful and flexible scripting tool that allows administrators to automate troubleshooting and maintenance tasks. EEM allows administrators to create custom scripts that can be executed in response to specific events, such as a high CPU utilization or a failure of a specific component.
The router also includes a number of diagnostic tools, such as the Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP) and the Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) which allow administrators to discover and identify other network devices that are connected to the router. These protocols provide information such as the device type, IP address, and other details that can be used to diagnose and troubleshoot connectivity issues.
In addition, the router has a web-based graphical user interface (GUI) that can be accessed via a web browser, it also supports the Cisco Network Assistant (CNA) for simplifying the configuration, troubleshooting, and monitoring of the router.
