Description
Advanced Security Features of Services Router
The C881G-S-K9 Cisco router is designed to provide advanced security features to protect the network from various threats. Some of the key advanced security features include:
- WPA2-Enterprise wireless security: This feature provides advanced encryption and authentication for wireless clients connecting to the network.
- Virtual Private Network (VPN): The router supports VPN protocols such as IPSec, L2TP over IPSec and SSL VPN. This allows for secure remote access to the network for remote workers and branch offices.
- Access Control Lists (ACLs): The router allows administrators to create and implement access control policies to limit access to specific network resources.
- Firewall: The router has a built-in firewall that helps protect the network from unauthorized access and malicious traffic.
- Intrusion Prevention System (IPS): The router supports Cisco IOS IPS which can be configured to detect and prevent a wide range of network attacks.
- Identity-based Networking: The router supports Cisco Identity Services Engine (ISE) which allows for network access control based on user identity, device type and posture assessment.
- Advanced Malware Protection (AMP): The router supports Cisco AMP which allows to detect and block advanced threats and malware in the network.
- Advanced threat protection: The router supports Cisco Advanced Malware Protection (AMP) for Networks and Cisco Advanced Phishing Protection (APP) which helps to protect against advanced threats and targeted attacks.
These advanced security features can be configured and managed through the router’s web-based management interface, the command-line interface (CLI), Cisco Prime Infrastructure, or Cisco DNA Center. It is important to properly configure these security features and keep the software up to date to ensure the network is protected against known and emerging threats.
High Availability and Redundancy Options
The C881G-S-K9 Cisco router is designed to provide high availability and redundancy options to ensure that the network stays up and running even in the event of a failure. Some of the key high availability and redundancy options include:
- Hot Standby Router Protocol (HSRP): This protocol allows for the configuration of a primary and a secondary router, with the secondary router taking over as the active router in the event of a failure.
- Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP): This protocol allows for the configuration of multiple virtual routers, with one being designated as the active router and the others being on standby in case the active router fails.
- Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP): This protocol allows for the bundling of multiple physical links together to form a single logical link, providing redundancy in case one of the physical links fails.
- Power Supply Redundancy: The router supports two power supply options, AC and DC. It has a redundant power supply option where the secondary power supply takes over in case the primary one fails.
- Dual-Radio: The router supports dual-radio, which allows for multiple wireless access points to work together to provide wireless coverage and redundancy in case one of the radios fails.
- Cisco Network Assurance Engine (NAE) : Cisco Network Assurance Engine (NAE) provides a proactive and automated approach to ensure the network is always in a healthy state and it can detect and correct any configuration issues that could cause network outages.
- Cisco DNA Center: The router can be managed and monitored through Cisco DNA Center which provides a centralized management and assurance platform for the network. It can detect and correct any issues that could cause network outages before they happen.
It is important to properly configure these high availability and redundancy options to ensure that the network remains available and reliable in the event of a failure. It is also important to test and verify these options to ensure they work as expected.
Networking and Connectivity Options
The C881G-S-K9 Cisco router is designed to provide a wide range of networking and connectivity options to support various types of network deployments. Some of the key networking and connectivity options include:
- Ethernet ports: The router has 4 Gigabit Ethernet ports that can be configured as LAN or WAN ports to connect to other network devices or service providers.
- Wireless connectivity: The router supports 802.11n and 802.11ac wireless standards, and can act as a wireless access point to provide wireless connectivity for clients.
- VLANs: The router supports virtual LANs (VLANs), which allows for the creation of multiple logical networks on a single physical infrastructure.
- Quality of Service (QoS): The router supports Quality of Service (QoS) to prioritize different types of network traffic, such as voice, video and data.
- IPv4 and IPv6 support: The router supports both IPv4 and IPv6, allowing for a smooth transition to the new internet protocol and providing an expanded address space.
- Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP): The router supports DHCP to automatically assign IP addresses to clients connecting to the network.
- Network Address Translation (NAT): The router supports NAT, which allows for the use of private IP addresses on the internal network while still being able to connect to the Internet.
- Routing protocols: The router supports various routing protocols, such as Routing Information Protocol (RIP), Open Shortest Path First (OSPF), Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) and Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (EIGRP)
- VPN: The router supports VPN protocols such as IPSec, L2TP over IPSec and SSL VPN. This allows for secure remote access to the network for remote workers and branch offices.
- Cisco SD-WAN: The router supports Cisco SD-WAN which allows for the deployment of secure, policy-controlled and application-aware WANs to improve network performance, security and flexibility.
- Cisco DNA Center: The router can be managed and monitored through Cisco DNA Center, which provides a centralized management and assurance platform for the network. It provides visibility and control of the network devices and services.
These networking and connectivity options can be configured and managed through the router’s web-based management interface, the command-line interface (CLI), Cisco Prime Infrastructure, or Cisco DNA Center. It is important to properly configure these options to meet the specific needs of the network and to ensure that the network remains secure and reliable.
