Cisco 700 series routers connect small office Ethernet LANs to corporate networks through Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN) Basic Rate Interface (BRI) lines. After configuration, the router automatically routes packets to and from remote destinations using IP or Internetwork Packet Exchange (IPX).
The Cisco 700 series router is a fixed configuration router. The router operating system is called Cisco IOS-700 software and is unique to the Cisco 700 series router.
The Cisco 700 series routers support the following protocols:
The Cisco 700 Series routers run a proprietary Cisco software (Cisco IOS-700 software) image, which is different than traditional Cisco IOS software. The image you use varies, depending on the region in which the router is used and what feature set you desire. The image name, for example, c760-in.r-TPH.43-1.bin, designates the region and features. The regions are as follows:
The features are indicated as follows:
So the example image named "c760-in.b-TPH.43-1.bin" is a Series 760 router image software Release 4.3(1), with the Internet Ready feature set for Australia. (All Cisco 700 series routers run Series 760 router images. There is no Series 770 router images.)

You can configure routers through the configuration port or across an IP network using Telnet. In addition, Cisco IOS-700 software supports Cisco 700 Fast Step software applications. These tools are on the Cisco 700 Fast Step CD-ROM in the Cisco 700 Quick Reference Guide.
Commands and parameters have different results depending on where they are entered. There are two primary levels, system and profile. The system mode commands are global in nature. The profile mode commands are groups of command parameters that relate to a specific switch or port. For additional information regarding profiles, refer to the Cisco 700 Series Router Configuration Guide.
