Using the following features, service providers can offer true QoS and cater to applications with special requirements:

• Per-virtual-circuit queuing (ATM QoS)

• Trafﬁc management (ATM QoS)

• Low latency queuing (IP QoS)

• PPP fragmentation and interleaving (PPP QoS)

• Policy-based routing (IP QoS)

• Weighed Random Early Detection (IP QoS)

Managed Network Services with Cisco IOS Software

Service providers can offer small business and enterprise telecommuters managed network or Internet access with the

Cisco 827-4V router, providing service level agreement (SLAs) and response time. SLAs can be critical requirement

in serving the business market that is accustomed to uninterrupted service with traditional WAN services such as T1

lines or Frame Relay. When deploying business services with multiple Cisco 827-4V routers, service providers can

use tools to provision and monitor these services. The Cisco 827-4V rouer supports the SA Agent feature in Cisco

IOS Software that enables the monitoring of SLAs all the way to the customer site. Additionally, in deploying VPNs

with multiple Cisco 827-4V routers, service providers can use the Cisco VPN Solutions Center software or Cisco

AVVID partner software and services to set up and manage VPN and Firewall connections between customer sites.

Reduced Cost of Operations

Cisco IOS Software Manageability

The Cisco 827-4V router incorporates the same Cisco IOS technologies used by service providers and enterprises,

allowing service providers and resellers to use existing knowledge of Cisco IOS Software to reduce training costs

when conﬁguring, installing, and deploying Cisco 827-4V ADSL routers. Additionally, Cisco IOS Software provides

manydebugfeaturesthat allow a serviceprovidertoremotely diagnose network problems.TheCisco 827-4V routers

support centralized administration and management via Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP), HTTP, or

Telnet,or local management through the router console port. The world-class support offered by the Cisco Technical

Assistance Center (TAC) provides unparalleled support services.

Easy to Set Up

The Cisco 827-4V router includes the Cisco Router Web Set Up tool, a Web-based conﬁguration tool for simpliﬁed

installation and setup. To conﬁgure the product, users simply point a Web browser to the IP address of the router

and follow a few simple steps. This allows the Cisco 827-4V router to be readily installed by non-technical personnel

orend users. The setup toolallows a user to enable security, such aspacket ﬁltering, as well asthe CiscoIOS Software

Firewall Feature Set.

Additionally, Cisco offers at no additional cost, Cisco Conﬁguration Express for direct purchase partners which

allows Cisco to ship pre-conﬁgurated routers to end users. Service Providers, System Integrators and Enterprise can

utilize Conﬁguration Express to save on the cost of deployment logistics and warehousing of products. Cisco

Conﬁguration Express also enables true plug and play deployments of Cisco 827-4V routers without the need for

any conﬁguration tools through custom loaded conﬁgurations.
