in a regional or large branch office:
◦
WAN aggregation at Cisco Enterprise core
◦
Internet gateway
◦
Branch or regional office aggregation
◦
Remote access aggregation
• Service provider applications—Intended as the low-end service provider edge and broadband aggregation
device with similar throughput:
◦
High-end customer premises equipment (CPE) for business-quality Internet access
◦
Service provider leased line aggregation
◦
Provider edge (PE) and high-end customer edge (CE) for Layer 2 VPN or Layer 3 VPN services
◦ Broadband aggregation—PPPoE/PPPoA aggregation and Service Selection Gateway (SSG)
