Description
Network Monitoring and Management
Network monitoring and management of the Cisco RV134W-A-K9 small business wireless router involves monitoring and managing various aspects of the router’s network performance and security.
- Network Performance Monitoring: This includes monitoring the router’s uptime, bandwidth usage, and wireless signal strength. This information can be used to troubleshoot connectivity issues, identify bottlenecks, and optimize network performance.
- Wireless Network Configuration: The router’s wireless settings can be configured and managed through the web interface or CLI. This includes setting up wireless networks, managing access points, and configuring security settings such as WPA2 encryption.
- Firewall Management: The router’s built-in firewall can be configured to block or allow specific types of traffic. This can be done through the web interface or CLI and can be used to secure the network against unauthorized access and potential cyber threats.
- Remote Management: The router can be managed remotely using Cisco’s cloud-based management platform, Cisco Meraki. This allows for monitoring and management of the router from anywhere with an internet connection.
- Event Logging: The router can record various events such as login attempts, configuration changes and system errors in an event log. These logs can be accessed and reviewed through the web interface or CLI to troubleshoot issues and track down suspicious activity.
Routing Protocols and Configuration
The Cisco RV134W-A-K9 small business wireless router supports several routing protocols that can be used to manage and configure the router’s routing table. These include:
- Routing Information Protocol (RIP): A distance-vector protocol that uses hop count as a metric to determine the best path to a destination network.
- Open Shortest Path First (OSPF): A link-state protocol that uses a metric based on bandwidth and delay to determine the best path to a destination network.
- Border Gateway Protocol (BGP): A path-vector protocol that is used to exchange routing information between routers in different autonomous systems (AS).
- Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP): A client-server protocol that automatically assigns IP addresses and other network configuration parameters to devices on the network.
These protocols can be configured through the router’s web interface or CLI. It’s important to choose the appropriate routing protocol based on the network’s requirements and to configure it correctly to ensure optimal network performance and stability.
Quality of Service (QoS) Capabilities
The Cisco RV134W-A-K9 small business wireless router has Quality of Service (QoS) capabilities that allow the router to prioritize different types of network traffic. This can be used to ensure that critical traffic, such as VoIP or streaming video, is given priority over less critical traffic such as file downloads.
The router can use several QoS techniques to prioritize traffic, including:
- Traffic Shaping: This controls the rate at which traffic is sent and received on the network. This can be used to ensure that bandwidth-intensive applications do not consume too much bandwidth and cause network congestion.
- Priority Queuing: This assigns different priorities to different types of traffic. This can be used to ensure that critical traffic is sent first and less critical traffic is sent later.
- Class-Based Weighted Fair Queuing (CBWFQ): This allows the router to assign different bandwidth limits to different types of traffic. This can be used to ensure that critical traffic is given more bandwidth than less critical traffic.
- Low Latency Queuing (LLQ): This gives priority to delay-sensitive traffic such as voice and video.
- Weighted Random Early Detection (WRED): This helps to prevent network congestion by randomly dropping packets before the network becomes overloaded.
The QoS settings of the router can be configured through the router’s web interface or CLI. It’s important to configure the QoS correctly to ensure that critical traffic is given priority and network congestion is prevented.
