Cisco SD-WAN vEdge routers serve as the foundational hardware and software components for the Cisco SD-WAN architecture. These devices are designed to be deployed at the network perimeter, including branch offices, remote sites, campuses, and data centers. By functioning as a secure virtual overlay, they enable organizations to manage their wide area network (WAN) traffic across diverse transport methods while ensuring robust security and multi-cloud connectivity.
Product overview
The Cisco SD-WAN portfolio is categorized into several distinct lines, primarily consisting of Viptela OS routers and IOS XE SD-WAN enabled platforms. The Viptela OS lineup includes the vEdge-100 (available in Ethernet and 4G/LTE modem variants), vEdge-1000, vEdge-2000, and vEdge-5000, each offering varying levels of port density and hardware redundancy. Additionally, the portfolio incorporates the ISR 1100 series (4G, 4GLTE, and 6G models) to provide flexible connectivity options.
For environments requiring broader integration, Cisco offers SD-WAN capabilities on select ISR 1000, ISR 4000, and ASR 1000 series routers, as well as the ENCS 5000 series, by utilizing the IOS XE SD-WAN software image. Cloud-based requirements are addressed through the vEdge Cloud and CSR 1000V virtual routers. While these platforms differ in throughput, physical port configurations, and redundancy features, they all share a consistent set of software functionalities to ensure a unified management experience across the entire network.
Features and benefits
- Comprehensive Routing and Bridging: Supports a wide range of protocols including OSPF, eBGP, iBGP, and static routing, alongside advanced bridging capabilities like 802.1Q and VLAN tagging.
- Robust Security: Implements a zero-trust framework with features such as whitelisting, tamper-proof modules, IPSec encryption, and built-in DDoS protection.
- Advanced Traffic Management: Provides sophisticated Quality of Service (QoS) tools, including traffic shaping, policing, prioritization, and low-latency queuing to optimize application performance.
- Integrated Cellular Connectivity: Select models, such as the vEdge-100m, feature integrated 4G/LTE modems to provide reliable backup or primary connectivity in remote locations.
- Application-Aware Routing: Enables intelligent path selection based on application requirements, ensuring critical business traffic is prioritized.
- Flexible Management: Offers multiple configuration and monitoring interfaces, including CLI, Netconf over SSH, REST APIs via vManage, and secure remote access through SSH and SCP.
- Scalable Hardware Options: Provides a range of physical interfaces, from fixed Ethernet ports on smaller units to modular NIM and PIM slots on high-capacity models like the vEdge-5000 and vEdge-2000.
- High Availability: Supports redundant power supplies and hot-swappable components in enterprise-grade models to minimize downtime.
Introduction
Cisco’s SD-WAN vEdge Routers are routing components of the architecture that delivers the essential WAN, security and multi-cloud capability of the Cisco SD-WAN solution.
Cisco SD-WAN vEdge routers are delivered as hardware, software, cloud or virtualized components that sit at the perimeter of a site, such as remote office, branch office, campus, or a data center. They participate in establishing a secure virtual overlay network over a mix of any WAN transports.
Product portfolio
The entire Cisco SD-WAN routing portfolio includes:
Viptela OS Routers
1.vEdge-100: five fixed 10/100/1000 Mbps ports. Comes in three different flavors:
●vEdge 100b: Ethernet only
●vEdge 100m: Ethernet and integrated 2G/3G/4G modem
2.vEdge-1000: 8 ports of fixed GE SFP
3.vEdge-2000: 2 Pluggable Interface Modules
4.vEdge-5000: 4 Network Interface Modules
5.ISR 1100-4G: 4 GE WAN ports
6.ISR 1100-4GLTE: 4 GE WAN ports, 4G LTE (CAT4)
7.ISR 1100-6G: 6 GE WAN ports (4 GE and 2 SFP)
IOS XE SD-WAN Routers
1.ISR & ASR Series: With IOS XE SD-WAN software image, SD-WAN capability can be enabled on select ISR 1000 series, ISR 4000 series and ASR 1000 series routers. For more details, refer the respective data sheets.
2.ENCS: With IOS XE SD-WAN software image, SD-WAN capability can be enabled on select ENCS 5000 series platforms. For more details, refer to the respective data sheets.
3.vEdge Cloud and CSR 1000V are the cloud elements of the SD-WAN solution. For more details, refer to the respective data sheets.
vEdge Routers: All of vEdge Routers offer the same software functionality. The key differences between the platforms are in respect to throughput, redundancy in hardware components and port density. Some models of vEdge-100 routers offer additional functionality in the form of Power over Ethernet. Key hardware specifications for vEdge Routers are listed in Table 1.
