Cisco Unified Communications Features
Benefits and Advantages
continued
IP telephony is currently undergoing tremendous
growth, accelerated by access to value-added
features and applications that only IP telephony
can provide to the end user. Additionally, the cost
benefits of converging data, voice, and video on a
single network are adding to the rapid acceptance
of this technology. Because it is integrated into a
single system, the Cisco 1861 Integrated Services
Router for SMBs and enterprise small branch
offices enhances the advantages of convergence
by offering the following unique benefits:
• Cost-effective operations through a single,
integrated voice-and-data platform for all
SMB and enterprise branch office needs:
This highly reliable platform provides robust
QoS and the right level of security, encryption,
and firewall to deliver enhanced VPN services
to meet small-business needs. The system
delivers integrated IP telephony, voicemail, and
Automated-Attendant functions, allowing you to
deploy one device to address all your business
needs-thereby simplifying management,
maintenance, and operations and delivering a
lower total cost of ownership (TCO).
IP Telephony Support Overview
Features Details
IP Phone Support Onboard PoE switch ports can be used to power Cisco IP phones.
PVDM Support Onboard support analog and digital voice, conferencing, transcoding,
and secure Real-Time Transport Protocol (RTP) applications. This
feature is not upgradable.
Integrated Call Processing Cisco Unified Communications Manager Express (CME v4.2) is
embedded in Cisco IOS Software at first customer shipment (FCS)
and provides call processing for Cisco IP phones. Cisco CME delivers
telephony features similar to those that are commonly used by
business users to meet the requirements of the small to medium-sized
offices. For additional information about Cisco Unified Communications
Manager Express features, please visit
Integrated Voicemail and Automated An integrated voicemail and Automated-Attendant solution using Cisco
Attendant Unity Express v2.3 is available optionally as a factory option. Up to 8
mailboxes and 5 general delivery mailboxes are available with the
Cisco Unity Express option. For additional information about Cisco
Unity Express features, please visit
PSTN Interfaces Support Onboard voice ports integrated into the system by default include
interfaces for PSTN; PBX; and key system connections, including FXS,
FXO, and BRI.
Cisco Unified SRST Branch offices can take advantage of centralized call control while cost-
effectively providing local branch backup using SRST redundancy for
unified communications. For additional information about Cisco Unified
SRST features, please visit

• Sophisticated key system and private branch
exchange (PBX) capabilities:
SMBs and enterprise branch offices have different
workflows and require specialized features to
support their work practices. The Cisco 1861
delivers a robust set of telephony features for the
small office and delivers unique, value-added
capabilities through the Extensible Markup
Language (XML). These capabilities, which cannot
be delivered by traditional systems, enhance the
productivity of the end user and the business.
• Remote maintenance and troubleshooting:
You can use the industry-standard Cisco IOS
Software Command-Line Interface (CLI) or
user-friendly GUI to configure and administer the
Cisco 1861 Integrated Services Router system.
The Cisco 1861 Integrated Services Router
appliance in the first phase offers the feature set
available with Cisco Unified Communications
Manager Express 4. 1 and Cisco Unity Express 2.3.

Platform Overview
Security is a fundamental element of any network,
and Cisco products play an important role in
embedding security at the customer's access
edge. The optional Cisco IOS Software security
features for the Cisco 1861 Integrated Services
Router are activated with hardware-based
encryption on the motherboard and provide a
robust array of features such as Cisco IOS Firewall,
Secure Network Overview
Features Details
Cisco IOS Software Firewall Sophisticated security and policy enforcement provides features such
as stateful, application-based filtering (context-based access control),
per-user authentication and authorization, real-time alerts, transparent
firewall, and IPv6 firewall.
SSL SSL provides security for Web transactions by handling authentication,
data encryption, and digital signatures.
Onboard VPN Encryption Acceleration The Cisco 1861 supports IPsec DES; 3DES; and AES 128, 192, and 256
cryptology by using an optional security image.
A Cisco Self-Defending Network initiative, NAC seeks to dramatically
Network Admission Control (NAC)
improve the ability of networks to identify, prevent, and adapt to threats
by allowing network access only to compliant and trusted endpoint
devices.
The Cisco 1861 supports specific provider edge functions plus a
Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS)
mechanism to extend customers' MPLS VPN networks out to the
VPN Support
customer edge with a Virtual Route Forwarding (VRF) firewall and
VRF IPsec. For details about the MPLS VPN support on the different
integrated services routers, please check the feature navigator tool at:
http://www.cisco.com.
Flexible and high-performance support is offered through Cisco IOS
IPS
Software. IPS offers the ability to load and enable selected intrusion
detection system (IDS) signatures in the same manner as Cisco IDS
Sensor Software.
Cisco IOS Firewall includes HTTP and several e-mail inspection
Advanced Application Inspection and
engines that can be used to detect misuse of port 80 and e-mail
Control
connectivity.
Cisco Easy VPN Remote and Server The Cisco 1861 eases administration and management of point-to-
Support point VPNs by actively pushing new security policies from a single
headend to remote sites.
DMVPN DMVPN is a Cisco IOS Software solution for building IPsec + Generic
routing encapsulation (GRE) VPNs in an easy and scalable manner.
GET VPN GET VPN is a Cisco IOS Software solution that simplifies securing large
Layer 2 or MPLS networks requiring partial or full-mesh connectivity by
providing tunnel-less VPN connectivity.
URL Filtering URL filtering is available externally with a PC server running the URL
filtering software.
Standard 802.1x Support on Integrated Standard 802. 1 x applications require valid access credentials that
make unauthorized access to protected information resources and
Switching
deployment of unsecured wireless access points more difficult.
Network Address Translation (NAT) NAT simplifies and reduces costs associated with global IP address
allocation and management. Only a single registered IP address is
required to support all users on an entire LAN infrastructure.
