About the Deployment Scenarios
This chapter identifies and describes the features and functions of typical deployment scenarios. It provides a high-level overview of each scenario and provides pointers to information about new functions.
Major new features of the Cisco 860 series and 880 series ISRs include the following:
•
3G wireless data connectivity backup (some Cisco 880 series ISRs)
•
Voice capabilities (some Cisco 880 series ISRs)
•
One embedded wireless device (optional)
•
Power over Ethernet (all Cisco 880 series ISRs)
3G Wireless Backup
Some Cisco 880 series ISRs have 3G wireless data backup capability. See Chapter 5, "Configuring Backup Data Lines and Remote Management" for details.
Voice
Some Cisco 880 series ISRs contain voice capabilities. Refer to the Cisco IOS Voice Configuration Library for details.
Embedded Wireless Device
Cisco 860 and 880 series ISRs can contain an optional wireless device. It is a separate embedded processor that runs its own version of the Cisco IOS software and is capable of being configured as a WLAN access point.. See Chapter 2, "Wireless Device Overview" for a description of this device.
Power Over Ethernet
All Cisco 880 Series ISRs contain Power Over Ethernet (PoE) capabilities. See the Cisco 860 and Cisco 880 Series Integrated Services Router Hardware Installation Guide for details.
Enterprise Small Branch
Figure 18-1 shows an Enterprise Small Branch deployment that uses the following technologies and features:
•
Group Encrypted Transport VPN (GETVPN) for highly scalable secure branch connectivity
•
Cisco IOS firewall (FW) policies that secure the front line of network connectivity and provide network and application layer protection to the enterprise network
•
Voice and multicast applications
•
Quality of service (QoS) prioritizes critical applications and ensures timely delivery of latency- sensitive and mission-critical applications

Internet Service and IPSec VPN with 3G
Figure 18-2 shows a remote office deployment thats uses 3G wireless technology for both backup and primary applications to communicate to their enterprise data center. Besides providiing direct Internet access employing Network Address Translation (NAT), Cisco 880 series ISRs can provide tunneled Virtual Private Network (VPN) service using IP Security and Generic Routing Encapsulation (IPSec+GRE) for secure and private communication over the public Internet.

SMB Applications
Figure 18-3 shows a small-to medium-size business deployment (SMB) that uses the following technologies and features at each branch office:
•
Easy VPN with Virtual Tunnel Interface (VTI) to simplify secure VPN for remote offices and teleworkers.
•
Deep packet inspection firewall for security. Firewalls provide the first level of access checking. They work with other security technologies, including intrusion prevention, encryption, and endpoint security, to provide a well-rounded defense-in-depth enterprise security system.
•
Inline Intrusion Prevention Systems (IPS) protection provides additional security, and is a core facet of the Cisco Self-Defending Network, Cisco IOS IPS helps enable the network to defend itself with the intelligence to accurately classify, identify, and stop or block malicious or damaging traffic in real time.
•
QoS provides timely delivery of latency-sensitive and mission-critical applications.
•
ISDN connectivity backup provides network redundancy in the event that the primary service provider link fails.
•
Support for existing analog voice and fax capabilities.

Enterprise Wireless Deployments with LWAPP
Figure 18-4 shows an Enterprise wireless LAN deployment using Lightweight Access Point Protocol (LWAPP) and the following technologies and features:
•
Broadband Internet access and VPN connection to a central site.
•
Hybrid Remote Edge Access Point (H-REAP) provides wireless LAN services to remote and branch offices without using a wireless LAN controller at each location. With HREAP, organizations can bridge traffic locally, tunnel traffic over the WAN, or tunnel traffic over LWAPP on a per Service Set Identifier (SSID).
•
Dynamic RF management with Cisco Wireless Control System (WCS).
•
The ability to mix and match embedded access points with external access points.
