IPSec DES and 3DES • Enable creation of VPNs by providing industry-standard data
privacy, integrity, and authenticity as data traverses the
Internet or a shared public network
• Supports up to 168-bit encryption
Hardware-Based Encryption Using Optional
VPN Module
• Supports wire-speed encryption up to T1/E1 speeds
Device Authentication and Key Management
IKE, X.509v3 digital certification,and support for
certificate enrollment protocol (CEP) with
certification authorities (CAs) such as Verisign
and Entrust
• Ensure proper identity and authenticity of devices and data
• Enable scalability to very large IPSec networks through
automated key management
User Authentication
PAP/CHAP, RADIUS, TACACS+ • Support all leading user identity verification schemes
VPN Tunneling
IPSec, GRE, L2TP, L2F • Offer choice of standards-based tunneling methods to create
VPNs for IP and non-IP traffic
• Allow standards-based IPSecor L2TP client to interoperate with
Cisco IOS tunneling technologies
• Fully interoperable with public certificate authorities and IPSec
standards-based products
• Part of the scalable Cisco end-to-end VPN solution portfolio
Cisco Easy VPN client • Allows the router to act as remote VPN client and have VPN
policies pushed down from the VPN concentrator
Cisco Unified VPN Access Server • Allows the router to terminate remote access VPNs initiated by
mobile and remote workers running Cisco VPN client software
on PCs; and allows the router to terminate site-site VPNs
initiated by IOS routers using the Cisco Easy CPN client feature
Management
IEEE 802.1Q VLAN Support • VLANs enable efficient traffic separation, provide better
bandwidth utilization, and alleviate scaling issues by logically
segmenting the physical LAN infrastructure into different
subnets
Manageable via SNMP (CiscoView,
CiscoWorks2000), Telnet, and console port
• Allow central monitoring, configuration, and diagnostics for all
functions integrated in the Cisco 1751 router, reducing
management time and costs
Cisco SDM • Simplifies router and security configuration through smart
wizards to enable customers to quickly and easily deploy,
configure and monitor a Cisco access router without requiring
knowledge of Cisco IOS Command Line Interface (CLI)
