Description
High Availability Features
The Cisco ASR 1004-ACS is a rack mount kit for the Cisco ASR 1004 router, which provides high availability features to ensure network uptime and reliability. Some of the key features include:
- Redundant Power Supply: The ASR 1004-ACS supports dual power supply units to provide redundancy and ensure continuous operation in the event of a power supply failure.
- Dual Route Processor: The router has two route processors for active-standby redundancy, so that if one fails, the other can take over without interruption.
- Hot-swappable Components: The ASR 1004-ACS supports hot-swappable components, including power supply units and route processors, to minimize downtime during maintenance or component replacement.
- Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP): VRRP provides automatic failover and load balancing between multiple routers in the network, ensuring high availability and fault tolerance.
- Hardware-based Forwarding: The ASR 1004-ACS uses hardware-based forwarding to provide fast and reliable data transfer, even during high traffic periods.
- Stateful Switchover (SSO): SSO provides fast failover and recovery for high availability, ensuring that the network continues to operate even in the event of a route processor failure.
- Fast Convergence: The ASR 1004-ACS uses fast convergence algorithms to quickly reconverge the network after a failure, minimizing downtime and ensuring network availability.
Power Management Options
The Cisco ASR 1004-ACS is a 19-inch rack mount kit that is used to house the Cisco ASR 1004 router. It provides a compact and secure way to install and manage the router.
The power management options of the ASR 1004-ACS include:
- Power Supply Units (PSUs): The ASR 1004-ACS supports dual, redundant power supply units (PSUs) to ensure that the router remains operational in case of a power failure.
- Power Over Ethernet (PoE): The ASR 1004-ACS supports Power Over Ethernet (PoE) for powering other devices such as phones, cameras, and access points.
- Power Input Options: The ASR 1004-ACS supports both AC and DC power input options to provide flexibility for different environments and power requirements.
- Power Redundancy: The ASR 1004-ACS supports power redundancy to ensure that the router remains operational even if one of the PSUs fails.
- Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE): The ASR 1004-ACS supports Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE) which reduces power consumption during periods of low network traffic.
The power management options of the ASR 1004-ACS help to ensure that the router operates efficiently and reliably in a variety of environments and power requirements.
Network Security Features
The ASR1004-ACS is a rack mount kit for the Cisco ASR 1004 router, which is a high-performance, enterprise-class router that offers advanced security features to protect networks from various cyber threats.
Some of the key security features of the ASR1004-ACS include:
- Firewall: The ASR1004-ACS supports Cisco’s Adaptive Security Appliance (ASA) firewall, which provides stateful inspection of network traffic to protect against unauthorized access, viruses, and other threats.
- Virtual Private Network (VPN): The ASR1004-ACS supports various VPN technologies, including IPsec, SSL, and PPTP, to secure remote connections and protect data privacy.
- Intrusion Prevention System (IPS): The ASR1004-ACS includes an integrated IPS that analyzes network traffic in real-time to detect and prevent threats such as viruses, worms, and spyware.
- Access Control: The ASR1004-ACS supports access control policies based on user identity, location, time, and device type to restrict access to sensitive information.
- Network Address Translation (NAT): The ASR1004-ACS supports NAT, which translates private IP addresses to public IP addresses, allowing for secure communication between networks.
- Security Management: The ASR1004-ACS supports central security management, providing a unified view of security information and policy enforcement across multiple devices.
- Antivirus: The ASR1004-ACS supports antivirus scanning to detect and prevent malware infections.
