Description
More Specifications
The Cisco ASR 901 10G 8 Ports Ethernet Router Chassis (A901-6CZ-F-A) is a compact, high-performance router designed for service providers and enterprise networks. It features 8 10 Gigabit Ethernet ports, and supports a wide range of network protocols and services, including MPLS, IPv6, and VPNs. The router is powered by a dual-core, 1.2 GHz processor and has a maximum throughput of up to 12 Gbps. It also has a maximum of 4GB of DRAM and 4GB of flash memory, and supports up to 8GB of NAND flash storage. Additionally, it has a redundant power supply and cooling. The Cisco ASR 901 chassis supports several modules including ASR 901 10G 8 ports Ethernet Interface, ASR 901 8G FC SFP and ASR 901 4G FC SFP.
Security and Access Control
Security and access control for the A901-6CZ-F-A Cisco ASR 901 10G 8 Ports Ethernet Router Chassis can be achieved through a variety of methods, including:
- User authentication: The router can be configured to require users to enter a username and password before gaining access to the router’s management interface. This can be done through the use of local user accounts or through integration with an external authentication server, such as RADIUS or TACACS+.
- Access control lists (ACLs): The router can be configured to only allow certain users or groups of users to access specific parts of the router’s configuration or management interface. This can be done through the use of access control lists (ACLs) that are applied to different areas of the router’s configuration.
- Secure communication: The router can be configured to use secure communication protocols, such as SSH or HTTPS, to encrypt all communication between the router and any remote management systems. This helps to protect against eavesdropping and other forms of network attacks.
- Firewall: The router can be configured to act as a firewall, which can be used to block or allow traffic based on a set of predefined rules. This can be used to restrict access to the router from unauthorized sources and to protect against network attacks.
- Network segmentation: The router can be configured to segment the network into different VLANs, which can be used to isolate different parts of the network from each other. This can help to prevent unauthorized access to sensitive network areas and to protect against network attacks.
Network Management and Monitoring
- SNMP: The Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) can be used to monitor the performance and status of the Cisco ASR 901 router. This can include information on CPU usage, memory usage, and interface status.
- Syslog: The Cisco ASR 901 router can send syslog messages to a central server for monitoring and analysis. This can include information on system events, security alerts, and error messages.
- NetFlow: NetFlow can be used to monitor and analyze network traffic on the Cisco ASR 901 router. This can include information on traffic patterns, top talkers, and bandwidth usage.
- Cisco Prime: Cisco Prime is a network management platform that can be used to manage and monitor multiple Cisco devices, including the ASR 901 router. It offers a centralized view of the network, with real-time monitoring and reporting capabilities.
- CLI: The Command-Line Interface (CLI) can be used to access the Cisco ASR 901 router and monitor its status and configuration. This can include information on routing tables, interface status, and system uptime.
- Remote Access: Remote access can be configured to allow network administrators to access the Cisco ASR 901 router from remote locations. This can be done using secure protocols such as SSH or VPN.
- Automatic Notifications: Automatic notifications can be configured to alert network administrators of any issues or critical events on the Cisco ASR 901 router. This can include notifications of high CPU usage, interface failures, or security breaches.
- Performance Monitoring: Performance monitoring can be used to track the performance of the Cisco ASR 901 router and its various interfaces. This can include information on bandwidth usage, packet loss, and latency.
