- Cisco IOS Software security features
- VPN and Firewall functionality
- Intrusion Prevention System (IPS)
- Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) and IP Security (IPsec) VPN
- Advanced Application Inspection and Control
It allows the implementation of secure communications across a wide range of networks, including both wired and wireless, and provides secure access to the Internet and other resources. Additionally, it provides a high level of security for the network and its connected devices.
High Availability and Redundancy
The C866VAE-W-E-K9 Cisco Integrated Services Router offers high availability and redundancy features to ensure that the network remains up and running even in case of hardware or software failures.
One of the key features is the support for Hot Standby Router Protocol (HSRP) which allows for two routers to work together to present the appearance of a single virtual router to hosts on a LAN, providing redundancy in case of failure of one of the routers.
The router also supports the use of a backup link to provide redundancy in case of a failure of the primary link. This allows for automatic failover to the backup link, minimizing the disruption of network connectivity.
Additionally, the router supports Cisco IOS Software redundancy feature which allows for a secondary router to take over in case of a failure of the primary router. This provides redundancy at the software level, ensuring that network services are not interrupted.
The C866VAE-W-E-K9 also supports redundancy for the wireless network by supporting Cisco Wireless Control System (WCS) and Cisco Wireless LAN Controller (WLC) to manage and monitor the wireless network, this will allow to have multiple access points and automatic failover in case of failure of one of them.
