Cisco ASR1004-20G-VPN/K9 router
The Cisco ASR1004-20G-VPN/K9 is a high-performance aggregation services router from Cisco’s ASR 1000 Series, designed to provide secure and scalable connectivity for enterprise and service provider networks. This router comes as a VPN bundle, including a 20 Gbps Embedded Services Processor (ESP-20G), Route Processor 1 (RP1), and SIP10 Carrier Card, along with comprehensive VPN capabilities to ensure secure data transmission across various network environments.
With the Zone-Based Policy Firewall, the Cisco ASR 1000 Series acts as an implicit complete barrier between any interfaces not members of the same zone. An explicit zone-pair policy must be specified (using Cisco Policy Language; that is, MQC) in each direction between each zone pair. The policy establishes within the router the kind of stateful inspection (Layer 4, Layer 7, or application) and session parameters to apply to each zone pairing.
The Cisco ASR 1000 Series offers full-service IP Security (IPsec) VPN aggregation that scales to meet the new bandwidth demands of service provider IP VPNs.
