Description
Advanced security features
The Cisco 5915 Embedded Services Router (CISCO5915RA-K9) is designed for harsh industrial environments and provides advanced security features to protect against a wide range of threats.
One of the key security features of the CISCO5915RA-K9 is the built-in firewall. This firewall provides stateful inspection capabilities, which allow it to inspect network traffic and block unauthorized access attempts. The firewall also supports Access Control Lists (ACLs), which allow administrators to control access to the network based on a wide range of criteria, such as IP address, port number, and protocol.
Another important security feature of the CISCO5915RA-K9 is the built-in VPN. This VPN allows remote users to securely connect to the network over the Internet, providing a secure way to access resources on the network. The CISCO5915RA-K9 supports a wide range of VPN protocols, including IPsec and SSL, making it compatible with a wide range of VPN clients.
The CISCO5915RA-K9 also supports advanced security features, such as Network Admission Control (NAC) and Identity Services Engine (ISE). NAC allows administrators to control access to the network based on the health and security of the connecting device. ISE allows administrators to control access to the network based on the identity of the connecting user, making it easier to enforce security policies.
In addition, the CISCO5915RA-K9 supports intrusion detection and prevention (IDP) and threat defense. IDP monitors network traffic for signs of malicious activity and can block or alert administrators of any detected threats. Threat defense provides real-time protection against known and emerging threats, including malware and advanced persistent threats (APT).
Quality of Service (QoS) capabilities
The Cisco 5915 ESR (Embedded Services Router) with the CISCO5915RA-K9 configuration is designed to provide high-quality service for demanding industrial applications. It has several QoS capabilities that help ensure that critical data and voice traffic is delivered with minimal delay and jitter. Some of the key QoS features of the CISCO5915RA-K9 include:
- Class-Based Weighted Fair Queuing (CBWFQ): This feature allows you to configure different queues for different types of traffic, such as voice, video, and data. CBWFQ ensures that each queue receives a fair share of bandwidth, preventing one type of traffic from overwhelming the others.
- Low Latency Queuing (LLQ): This feature prioritizes real-time traffic, such as voice and video, over other types of traffic. LLQ minimizes delay and jitter for these critical applications, ensuring that they perform well even in high-traffic conditions.
- Quality of Service Marking (QoS Marking): This feature allows you to classify and mark traffic based on its priority level. This information is then used to determine how the traffic should be handled by the router, ensuring that critical traffic is given priority over less important traffic.
- Congestion Management: The CISCO5915RA-K9 supports several congestion management techniques, such as tail drop and weighted random early detection (WRED). These features help prevent network congestion by discarding or prioritizing traffic when network resources are limited.
- Link Fragmentation and Interleaving (LFI): This feature helps mitigate the effects of latency on voice and video traffic by breaking up large packets into smaller ones and interleaving them with other types of traffic. This helps ensure that real-time traffic is delivered with minimal delay and jitter.
Network Address Translation (NAT) support
The Cisco 5915 ESR – PC104, Rugged, Air-cooled (CISCO5915RA-K9) supports Network Address Translation (NAT) through its Cisco IOS software. NAT allows the router to translate private IP addresses to public IP addresses, allowing devices on a private network to access the internet. The Cisco 5915 ESR can be configured to perform NAT using the Cisco IOS command-line interface (CLI) or through the Cisco Configuration Professional (CCP) graphical interface. Additionally, the router supports dynamic NAT, static NAT, and PAT (Port Address Translation) to provide flexible and secure network address translation capabilities.
