Cisco SOHO Series Cisco SOHO Series broadband routers provide secure connectivity to small remote offices with up to five users and teleworkers. The Cisco SOHO Series Routers can support integrated security features of Cisco IOS Software such as stateful inspection firewall protection, strong encryption for virtual private networks (VPNs), easy setup for non-technical users with a Web-based setup tool, and advanced management capabilities to lower operational costs. These routers connect to a DSL line with an integrated modem (ADSL: SOHO 97; ADSL over ISDN: SOHO 96; G.SHDSL: SOHO 78) or connect to an external DSL or cable modem (SOHO 91). B E N E F I T S A N D A DVA N TAG E S Secure Internet Access The Cisco SOHO Series Routers, recommended for up to five users, allow all users in a small office to share a secure broadband connection with an integrated stateful inspection firewall. Corporate teleworkers or small-office users can also take advantage of the Cisco SOHO Series Routers for VPN connections to the corporate network. The SOHO 91, 96, and 97 routers can set up secure Triple Data Encryption Standard (3DES) encrypted connections using Cisco IOS Software or, for all the SOHO Series Routers, users can initiate VPN tunnels from PC-based VPN clients on the LAN. Easy Setup and Deployment The Cisco SOHO Series Routers include the Cisco Router Web Setup tool (CRWS), a Web-based configuration tool that allows users to quickly selfinstall the router. Because CRWS is Web-based, no additional software is required on the PC for configuration. Users simply point a browser to the router and follow a few easy steps to quickly get the router up and running. Additionally, the Cisco Configuration Express service allows enterprise or service provider customers who order products direct from Cisco to have preconfigured Cisco SOHO Series Routers shipped from the manufacturer directly to the end users. Advanced Management Features for Low Cost of Ownership To simplify management and reduce ongoing operational costs, the Cisco SOHO Series Routers take advantage of many debug and troubleshooting features in Cisco IOS Software. To further reduce operational costs, the routers support centralized management and configuration updates with the Cisco IE 2100 Intelligent Engine management appliance. The Cisco SOHO Series Routers provide the right combination of integrated security features, a four-port 10/100 Ethernet LAN switch on the SOHO 91, 96, and 97 routers, and advanced management features to secure broadband connections for small office and home office users. Cisco SOHO 90 Series routers offer out-of-band management feature via virtual auxiliary port. Dynamic DNS feature is available on Cisco 830 routers, which enables the router to be accessible from outside using a DNS name even when the WAN IP address changes frequently.The Cisco SOHO Series Routers use the same Cisco IOS Software used in large service provider and enterprise networks, allowing small-office users to take advantage of the proven reliability of Cisco IOS Software. 7
