Network Equipment > Cisco Routers > 1700 Series > 1721
Empower your network to a multitude of WAN access options and at the same time keep costs low by deploying WIC's that can be shared with other router series such as 1600, 2600 and 3600. Cisco 1721 is a Modular Access Router that not only protects your investment in network equipment by making room for future technologies but also deliver effective results for issues faced today.
Flexibility and security are two integral components of Cisco 1721's design. As mentioned above the router is well capable of accommodating new WAN technologies with its interchangeable WIC's. As for the second element, many advancements and standards are supported thereby enabling the administrators to dynamically control access, allowing for legitimate users to access applications and internet with security while denying the requests for unauthorized LAN access. VPN and hardware based encryption boasts security performance.
It is worth having a close look at the VPN functionality of this router. Not only can Cisco 1721 push VPN policies acting as a remote VPN client but it can also exploit enhancements as offered by Cisco Easy VPN Server capability. This includes the termination of remote access VPN's started by remote workers as well as the termination of site to site virtual private network tunnels as initiated by other Cisco IOS devices.
Other highlights include the use of business class DSL as a WAN access option. Add the Qos and advanced routing capabilities and you have a winning formula for mission critical applications.
Thanks to the user-friendly exclusive software by Cisco, the management of 1700 series routers is no more a daunting task.
