NM-NAM Specifications
Hardware Architecture - Optimized performance single processor architecture with 256 MB of RAM and a
20 GB hard disk drive.
Monitoring Interfaces - Two Fast Ethernet monitoring interfaces: one "internal" backplane interface for
receiving copy of LAN or WAN traffic sent through a special packet-monitoring feature in the router's Cisco
IOS Software and one "external" interface for receiving traffic directly from local or remote LAN ports; either
can be used for management traffic and for receiving NetFlow data (versions 1, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9).
Performance - Fast Ethernet-class monitoring performance (while using internal monitoring interface; it is
recommended to monitor up to 10 Mbps traffic on the Cisco 2600XM Series Modular Multi-Service Module,
the Cisco 2691 Multi-Service Platform, and the Cisco 2800 Series integrated services routers, and up to 45
Mbps traffic on Cisco 3660 Multi-Service Platform, Cisco 3700 Series Multi-Service Access Routers, and
Cisco 3800 Series integrated services routers; external monitoring interface can be used for higher-capacity
monitoring).
Router Platforms - The Cisco Branch Routers Series NAM can be deployed in any network module slot in
the Cisco 2600XM Series Modular Multi-Service Module,, Cisco 2800 Series integrated services routers
(except the Cisco 2801 Integrated Services Router), Cisco 3660 Series Multi-Service Platform, Cisco 3700
Series Multi-Service Access Routers, and Cisco 3800 Series integrated services routers. Only one NAM is
supported per router chassis.
Cisco IOS Software- Cisco IOS Software Release 12.3(7)T or Cisco IOS Software Release 12.4(1) or later.
