Caution Cisco IOS images with strong encryption (including, but not limited to, 168-bit (3DES) data encryption feature sets) are subject to United States government export controls and have limited distribution. Strong encryption images to be installed outside the United States are likely to require an export license. Customer orders may be denied or subject to delay due to Unites States government regulations. When applicable, obtain local import and use authorizations for all encryption strengths. Contact your sales representative or distributor for more information, or send e-mail to export@cisco.com. |

| 1This feature set has no additional options. It offers a low-end APPN solution for this set of hardware platforms. This feature set is not available for AccessPro PC cards. 2Enterprise is available with APPN in a separate feature set. APPN includes APPN Central Registration (CRR) and APPN over DLSw+. APPN is not available on the AccessPro PC Card. 3This feature includes AppleTalk load balancing. 4IRB supports IP, IPX, and AppleTalk; it is supported for transparent bridging, but not for SRB; it is supported on all media-type interfaces except X.25 and ISDN bridged interfaces; and IRB and concurrent routing and bridging (CRB) cannot operate at the same time. 5The Novell IPX feature includes display SAP by name, IPX Access Control List violation logging, and plain-English IPX access lists. 6Translational bridging is fast switched by default but can be disabled. 7Note that the only IPX encapsulation supported in ISL is 802.3. 8ATM LAN emulation for Banyan VINES is only supported in Enterprise. The Desktop feature set supports DECnet only. 9ISDN support includes calling line identification (ANI), X.25 over the B channel, ISDN subaddressing, and applicable WAN optimization features. 10PPP includes support for LAN protocols supported by the feature set, address negotiation, PAP and CHAP authentication, Multilink PPP, and PPP compression. 11X.25 includes X.25 switching. 12IPX header compression (RFC 1553) is available in the feature sets that support IPX. 13BGP4 includes soft configuration, multipath support, and prefix filtering with inbound route maps. 14RED and RSVP are supported in IP/IPX/IBM/APPN for the Cisco 4000, 4500, and 4700 only. 15The RMON events and alarms groups are supported on all interfaces. Full RMON support is available with the Plus feature sets. 16MAC security for hubs is applicable to the following Cisco 2500 series Ethernet hub models: Cisco 2505, 2507, 2516, and 2518. 17For more details, see the description of the new data encryption options in the section "Cisco IOS Packaging" in the Release Notes for Cisco IOS Release 11.2. (See the "Related Documentation" section for information on accessing the related release notes.) 18TACACS+ Single Connection and TACACS+ SENDAUTH enhancements are supported. 19Cisco IOS Release 11.2 introduces several DLSw+ enhancements available in the Plus, Plus 40, and Plus 56 feature sets. 20SRB/RSRB is fast switched. This enhancement is on by default, but can be disabled. 21This feature is supported on access servers (with limited support on router auxiliary ports). 22The Cisco 4000, 4500, and 4700 products do not support ARAP 1.0/2.0. 23Use of LAT requires terminal license (FR-L8-10.X= for an 8-user license or FR-L16-10.X= for a 16-user license). |
