New Hardware Feature in Release 11.2(10)P

The following new hardware feature is supported by the Cisco 3600 series in Cisco IOS Release 11.2(10)P and later releases.

Digital Modem Network Modules

Digital modem network modules for the Cisco 3640 modular routers are supported in Cisco IOS Release 11.2(10)P and later releases. These modules are available in 6-, 12-, 18-, 24-, and 30-port sizes. Cisco 3620 routers support these modules in Cisco IOS Release 11.3(4)T1 and later releases.

These modules contain 6, 12, 18, 24, or 30 V.34+ digital modems for a direct digital connection to an Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN) Primary Rate Interface (PRI) channel, allowing you to mix digital and analog calls to provide remote access to a LAN.

Digital modem network modules do not provide network interfaces of their own, but instead handle analog calls passing through other router interfaces. In addition to the digital modem module, the router must contain a PRI network module to connect to the ISDN channel, and another module, such as Ethernet, to provide connectivity to the LAN. The PRI module concurrently handles digital ISDN data connections and remote voice-channel (analog) modem connections, allowing a dynamic mix of digital and modem connections. The digital modem module acts as a pool of available modems that can be used for both incoming and outgoing calls.

Note For installation and software configuration information, refer to the Cisco 3600 series Network Module Hardware Installation Guide and Software Configuration Guide. For instructions on how to reach these publications on CCO or the Documentation CD-ROM, refer to the "Related Documentation" section.

The following digital modem network module features are not supported in Cisco IOS Release 11.2(10)P for the Cisco 3640:

The following Cisco IOS commands, which apply to modem functionality, are not supported by the modem modules:

New Software Feature in Release 11.2(10)P

The following new software enhancement is supported by the Cisco 3600 series in Cisco IOS Release 11.2(10)P and later releases.

Web Cache Control Protocol

The Web Cache Control Protocol (WCCP) feature allows you to use a Cisco Cache Engine to handle web traffic, thus reducing transmission costs and downloading time. This traffic includes user requests to view pages and graphics on World Wide Web servers, whether internal or external to your network, and the replies to those requests.

Web caches reduce transmission costs and the amount of time required to download web files. If a client requests a web page that is already cached, the request and data travel only between the Cisco Cache Engine and the client. Without a web cache, the request and reply must travel over the Internet or wide-area network.

Cisco IOS support of WCCP provides a transparent web cache solution. Users benefit from web proxy caches without having to configure clients to contact a specific proxy server in order to access web resources. Many web proxy caches require clients to access web resources through a specific proxy web server rather than using the originally requested web server URL. With WCCP, the clients send web requests to the desired web server URL. Routers running Cisco IOS software intelligently intercept HTTP requests and transparently redirect them to a Cisco Cache Engine.

Note For step-by-step software configuration information, refer to the online publication Feature Guide for Cisco IOS Release 11.2 P.  For instructions on how to reach this publication on CCO or the Documentation CD-ROM, refer to the "Related Documentation" section.

New Features in Releases 11.2(8)P and 11.2(9)P

No new features are supported by the Cisco 3600 series for Release 11.2(8)P or 11.2(9)P.

New Hardware Features in Release 11.2(7)P

The following new hardware features are supported by the Cisco 3600 series in Cisco IOS Release 11.2(7)P and later releases.

Asynchronous Serial Task List

The 16- and 32-port asynchronous network module is supported in Release 11.2(7)P and later releases. When used with corresponding octal cables, these modules provide 16 or 32 EIA/TIA-232 data terminal equipment (DTE) serial interfaces. Speeds up to 134.4 kbps are supported.

Note For installation and software configuration information, refer to the Cisco 3600 series Cisco Network Module Hardware Installation Guide and Software Configuration Guide. For instructions on how to reach these publications on CCO or the Documentation CD-ROM, refer to the "Obtaining Documentation" section.

Compression Network Module

The compression network module is supported in Release 11.2(7)P and later releases. This module provides hardware assistance to protocols that use compression and decompression, reducing the load on the CPU caused by software compression, while improving router performance.

The compression network module does not provide network interfaces of its own, but instead compresses and decompresses data passing through interfaces on other network modules or WAN interface cards in the router. The following interfaces are supported:

Hardware compression is supported only over Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) links. The compression network module supports only the stacker compression algorithm.

Note For installation and software configuration information, refer to the Cisco 3600 series Cisco Network Module Hardware Installation Guide and Software Configuration Guide. For instructions on how to reach these publications on CCO or the Documentation CD-ROM, refer to the "Related Documentation" section.

New Hardware Feature in Release 11.2(6)P

The following new hardware features are supported by the Cisco 3600 series in Cisco IOS Release 11.2(6)P and later releases.

Fast Ethernet Network Module

The Fast Ethernet network module provides a single interface that supports 100BaseT and 10BaseT connectivity. There is one RJ-45 10/100 port on the Fast Ethernet network module. This port enables autonegotiation of the peers' capabilities and configures itself to support the highest possible data rate.

Note For step-by-step configuration information, refer to the online publication Update to Network Module Hardware Installation Guide and Software Configuration Guide. For instructions on how to reach this publication on CCO or the Documentation CD-ROM refer to the "Related Documentation" section.
