Cisco 890 series Integrated Services Routers (ISRs) combine Internet access, comprehensive security, and wireless services in a single high-performance device that is easy to deploy and manage. They are well suited for deployment as customer premises equipment (CPE) in enterprise small branch offices and in service provider managed-service environments.The 890 routers simplify the deployment of Ethernet WAN services, with end-to-end operations, administration, and maintenance (OA&M), service-level agreement (SLA) monitoring and verification, and configuration management.
Features:
High availability and business continuity
Consistent, high application performance levels
Risk mitigation with multilevel security
Feature consolidation for real estate, capital expenditures (CapEx), and management savings
Unified control of wired and wireless networks from a common console for streamlined operations
Remote configuration and management to keep local IT staff lean
High availability and business continuity
890 series ISR feature redundant WAN connections for failover protection and load balancing, dynamic failover protocols such as Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP; RFC 2338), Hot Standby Router Protocol (HSRP), and Multigroup HSRP (MHSRP) and dial backup with external modem through a virtual auxiliary port.
Consistent, high application performance levels
The router can run multiple services simultaneously with no performance degradation.
Risk mitigation with multilevel security
890 series ISR provide network perimeter security with integrated application inspection firewall, data privacy through high-speed IP Security (IPsec) Triple Data Encryption Standard (3DES) and Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) encryption, an enforced security policy with intrusion prevention, security hardware acceleration, flexVPN, next-generation encryption for secure network communications systems, reliable for the next decade, Cisco ISR Web Security with Cisco ScanSafe, designed to prevent zero-day malware from reaching corporate networks.
Feature consolidation for real estate, capital expenditures (CapEx), and management savings
These ISR supports LAN connections, both Ethernet and Wi-Fi, in one appliance. Contains an integrated 802.11n WLAN access point that supports both autonomous and unified modes, as well as an 8-port LAN switch. Management of both the wired and wireless environments is integrated.
Unified control of wired and wireless networks from a common console for streamlined operations
890 series ISR simplifies and centralizes configuration and management of wireless and wireline devices. Supports WLAN services without requiring a wireless LAN controller.
Remote configuration and management to keep local IT staff lean
890 series ISR supports separate console, auxiliary, and USB ports, provides two USB 2.0 flash memory or security eTokens, can be configured to work with optional USB token.
