Additional Information
Broadband Applications

• Broadband aggregation – PPP Termination and Aggregation/L2TP Access Concentrator (PTA/LAC) or L2TP Network Server/L2TP Tunnel Switch (LNS/TS) Broadband Network Gateway (BNG)/Broadband Remote Access Server router capable of handling up to 8000 simultaneous sessions and allowing for a pay-as-you-grow “rack and stack” architecture
• TISPAN RCEF – Intelligent service gateway (ISG) router capable of intelligent subscriber management that captures incremental revenue; supports up to 8000 simultaneous Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) and IP sessions.

Service Provider Edge Applications

• IPv6 gateway – Linking between an IPv4 network and an IPv6 network, including IPv6 VPN architectures
• Managed services – High-end customer premises equipment (CPE) or Multiprotocol Label Switching-customer edge (MPLS-CE) devices because of its high-performance, feature-rich support with both GE LAN connectivity and WAN port adapter connectivity
• High-availability design – Redundancy with 2 CPEs configured for Hot Standby Router Protocol (HSRP) or Layer 3 load balancing
• Cost-effective route reflector – Ideally suited as a low-cost route reflector with its ability to hold one million routes with its maximum of 2-GB memory installed

Enterprise Applications

• High-end CPE in large branch – The Cisco 7201 offers four built-in GE interfaces in a compact 1RU form factor with powerful performance and support to all required services at an enterprise branch office. Acting as managed or unmanaged high-end CPE, the Cisco 7201 supports Ethernet as a single technology for LAN and WAN at the branch, a cost-effective alternative to traditional WAN links with flexible bandwidth offerings: 10/100/1000 Mbps.
• Enterprise high-speed Internet gateway – The Cisco 7201 is a dedicated high-performance Internet gateway with the option to connect to a service provider by using either onboard FE or GE ports or a traditional WAN port adapter (PA) in the PA slot. Support for features such as IP Security (IPsec) and stateful firewall at very high speeds makes it an ideal Internet gateway (security) appliance.
• Optimized edge routing (OER) – The solution containing a Cisco 7201 as a master controller (MC), a Cisco 7206 border router at the hub site, and an integrated services router (ISR) as the border router or master controller in the branch provides WAN availability, WAN performance, and load distribution. The solution reduces operational cost, optimizes application performance, balances load between two networks, and provides operational simplicity and constant network performance monitoring. It is Cisco’s highest-performing OER solution, and it supports up to 15,000 prefixes.
• Tunnel-less VPN services – The solution containing a Cisco 7201 as a key server, a Cisco 7206 at the hub site, and an integrated services router (ISR) in the branch supports Cisco Group Encrypted Transport (GET) VPN to satisfy federal or industry regulations requiring confidential communications. The service integration delivers greater value, stronger branding, operational simplicity, and easy service rollout.
