Cisco ASR 1000 Series Aggregation Services Router
The Cisco ASR 1000 Series Aggregation Services Routers are high-performance enterprise and service-provider edge routers designed to aggregate WAN connections, deliver network services, secure traffic, and connect enterprise networks to data centers, cloud environments, and service-provider networks. Cisco states that the ASR 1000 Series supports forwarding rates from approximately 2.5 Gbps to 200 Gbps, depending on the platform and configuration.
The platform uses Cisco IOS XE and Cisco Flow Processor technology to provide routing, traffic management, encryption, NAT, firewall capabilities, deep packet inspection, CUBE and other network services without requiring separate service hardware for many functions.
