Cisco 3600 Series

Cisco 3600 Series

Product Overview

The Cisco 3600 series is a multifunction platform that combines dial access, routing, and LAN-to-LAN services and multiservice integration of voice, video, and data in the same device. The Cisco 3600 series includes the Cisco 3640 and Cisco 3620 access servers/routers. As modular solutions, the Cisco 3640 and Cisco 3620 have the flexibility to meet both current and future connectivity requirements. The Cisco 3600 series is fully supported by Cisco IOS software, which includes dial-up connectivity, LAN-to-LAN routing, data and access security, WAN optimization, and multimedia features.

The Cisco 3640 has four network module slots; the Cisco 3620 has two slots. Each network module slot accepts a variety of network module interface cards, including LAN and WAN mixed media cards supporting Ethernet, Fast Ethernet, Token Ring, and a variety of WAN technologies. These cards provide the foundation of LAN and WAN connectivity on a single, modular, network module. Additional applications are supported with a series of network module cards offering digital modems, asynchronous and synchronous serial, ISDN PRI, and ISDN BRI interfaces.

Figure 10-23 and Figure 10-24 show the Cisco 3600 series router rear views.

Figure 10-24: Cisco 3620 Router Rear View



The Cisco 3640 and Cisco 3620 routers support the following network applications and services:
The Cisco 3600 is a mid-range dial-up platform that fits between Cisco's AccessPath and AS5300 products at the high end and the Cisco 2500 series access servers at the low end. Mixed-mode and high density ISDN and asynchronous configurations offer substantial flexibility in dial-up applications. New digital modes modules further enhance the dial access flexibility and scalability of the Cisco 3600.
The Cisco 3600 series offers new levels of cost effective ISDN PRI concentration. A Cisco 3640 configured with a LAN network module and three 2-port ISDN PRI network modules supports up to 138 (T1) or 180 (E1) B channels. This is a powerful and cost effective way to aggregate many branch offices and telecommuters onto one corporate network.
For areas of the world where ISDN BRI services are more widely available or cost effective, the Cisco 3600 series supports many BRI interfaces. Configured with a LAN network module and three 8-port network modules, a Cisco 3640 connects up to 48 B channels. In this way, one system provides high-density BRI interface dial-up support and local LAN and WAN routing connectivity.
With support for up to 24 synchronous serial interfaces and a mixed media network module, the Cisco 3600 series and its RISC processor are the perfect complement to the Cisco 2500 and 1600 series. The Cisco 3600's higher performance and modular design are appropriate for locations needing support for multiple 56-kbps links or the ability to change configurations in the future.
Many corporate environments require support for a mixture of ISDN PRI, ISDN BRI, asynchronous serial, and synchronous serial connections. The Cisco 3640 is ideal for this scenario. It allows migration between interfaces or simultaneous support of several technologies.
The Cisco 3620 allows new levels of connectivity and performance for branch offices with its smaller size, lower slot density, and lower cost. A combination of one mixed media network module plus another network module provides new opportunities for branch offices needing more than a fixed-configuration model. The Cisco 3620, for example, provides multiple LAN access server support for asynchronous and ISDN environments, which complements the Cisco 2500 series access servers. Alternatively, a Cisco 3620 adds multiple LAN capabilities to branch bank environments needing to assimilate legacy serial devices, connecting them all to a high-speed Frame Relay network.
Consistent with its other capabilities, the Cisco 3600 series offers midrange LAN-to-LAN connectivity for branch offices needing a flexible modular platform. This is different from other low- to mid-range Cisco routers. The Cisco 4500 and Cisco 4700 are the highest-performance access routers and support a wide array of high-speed LAN and WAN interfaces, including FDDI and ATM. The Cisco 2500 series, with a multitude of fixed configurations, offers cost effective branch office solutions including integrated routers and hubs, single and dual LAN routers, and multiple serial routers.

Digital Modem Network Modules

The digital modem network modules significantly enhance the dial access flexibility and scalability of the Cisco 3600 series platform. Each network module supports up to 30 digital modems. The digital modem network modules use either the single or dual PRI network modules to offer support for up to 60 remote modem users (using two network modules), at speeds up to 56 Kbps. K56flex modem technology is currently supported, and future standards will be supported as they become available.

The digital modem network modules are available with 6, 12, 18, 24, or 30 modems per module, and are field-upgradable in six modem increments. Modem management software is also available for network managers who need to centrally monitor modem activity.

Figure 10-26 illustrates the digital modem network modules.


Figure 10-26: Digital Modem Network Module



Mixed-Media Network Modules

The versatile mixed-media network modules can have up to two fixed LAN interfaces and two user-configurable WAN interfaces. The fixed LAN interfaces reside on the main board and can be used in one Ethernet configuration, two Ethernet configurations, or one Ethernet and one Token Ring configuration. The first Ethernet port supports 10BaseT and AUI connectors while the second Ethernet port supports 10BaseT connectors only. The Token Ring port supports 4- and 16-Mbps ring speeds and STP and UTP interfaces.

The main board has two expansion slots for the WAN interface cards. The supported WAN modules include the 5-in-1 high-speed serial, ISDN BRI with S/T and U interfaces, and 1-port 4-wire 56 kbps DSU/CSU. The WAN high speed interface supports speeds up to 2.048 Mbps, full-duplex.

Channelized T1/ISDN-PRI and E1/ISDN-PRI Network Modules

The channelized T1/ ISDN PRI modules are available with and without a built-in CSU and with one or two ports. The channelized T1/ISDN PRI modules connect to an external CSU. (See Figure 10-30 and Figure 10-31.) The channelized T1/ISDN PRI CSU modules connect directly to the network. (See Figure 10-32 and Figure 10-33.) Each of the T1 modules provides up to 24 virtual channels per T1 port.

The channelized E1/ISDN PRI modules are available with one or two E1 ports with balanced or unbalanced interfaces and are compatible with the International Telecommunication Union Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) G.703/G.704 specifications. (See Figure 10-34 through Figure 10-37.) The channelized E1/ISDN PRI modules receive and transmit data bidirectionally at the E1 rate of 2.048 Mbps and provide up to 30 virtual channels per E1 port.

When configured for PRI, the T1/E1 modules are not compatible with the 4-port or 8-port ISDN BRI modules in the same chassis. However, they are compatible when configured for channelized service.

4- and 8-Port ISDN BRI Network Modules

Four versions of BRI network modules are available. Each 4- and 8-port module has the option of an S/T interface or an onboard NT1 for each port. (See Figure 10-38 through Figure 10-41.) These modules are installed in any slot in the Cisco 3600 series routers. Local SRAM is used for buffer descriptors and input queues. The 4-port module is not field upgradeable to the 8-port module.

With all eight BRI ports running continuous data (144 kbps each) and 50-byte packets, the maximum performance possible is 5760 pps and an aggregate full-duplex data rate of 2.3 Mbps.

The ISDN BRI network modules support the following features:

Figure 10-45: 8-Port Asynchronous/Synchronous Network Module



1-Port and 4-Port Ethernet Network Modules

There are two different Ethernet network modules available for the Cisco 3600 series routers: 1-port and 4-port. The 1-port Ethernet network module has one Ethernet attachment unit interface (AUI) DB-15 connector and one 10BaseT RJ-45 connector. Only one of these two connections can be active at a time. (See Figure 10-46.)

The 4-port Ethernet network module supports up to four Ethernet connections. Ethernet port 0 uses either the AUI (DB-15) connector on the right side of the module or the 10BaseT (RJ-45) connector next to it, but only one of these two connections can be active at a time. Ethernet ports 1, 2, and 3 use 10BaseT connectors; these ports do not provide an AUI connector. (See Figure 10-47.)

The 1-port and 4-port Ethernet network modules require Cisco IOS Release 11.2(4)XA, 11.2(5)P, or later.


Figure 10-46: 1-Port Ethernet Network Module




Figure 10-47: 4-Port Ethernet Network Module



1-Port Fast Ethernet Network Module

The 1-port Fast Ethernet network module has one RJ-45 port. (See Figure 10-48.) This port connects to two-pair Category 5 UTP cabling following the 100BaseTX physical layer protocol.


Figure 10-48: 1-Port Fast Ethernet Network Module



4-Port Serial Network Module

The 4-port serial network module has four DB-60 ports and provides a data rate of 8 Mbps on port 0, 4 Mbps each on port 0 and port 2, or 2 Mbps on all four ports simultaneously. (See Figure 10-49.)


Figure 10-49: 4-Port Serial Network Module



Compression Network Module

The compression network module compresses and decompresses data passing through interfaces on other network modules or WAN interface cards in the router. (See Figure 10-50.) The following interfaces are supported:

Hardware compression is supported only over PPP links and only by means of the Stacker compression algorithm.


Figure 10-50: Compression Network Module



WAN Interface Card Options

The following WAN interface cards are available for network modules installed in a Cisco 3640 or Cisco 3620 router:

Note The ISDN BRI, ISDN with NT1, serial WAN interface, and ISDN BRI with 56/64-kbps DSU/CSU WAN port cards are compatible with Cisco 1600 series routers.

The ISDN BRI, ISDN BRI with NT1, and 1-port, 4-wire, 56-kbps DSU/CSU interface cards require Cisco IOS Release 11.2(4)XA, 11.2(5)P, or later.

Memory, Power Supply, and Cable Options

This section describes the memory, power supply, and cable options for the Cisco 3600 series routers.

The Cisco 3600 series uses two types of replaceable or upgradeable memory: DRAM memory and Flash memory. Both types of memory are implemented with SIMMs. Each router has two Flash SIMM sockets and four DRAM SIMM sockets. In the standard Flash memory configuration, the first socket contains a 4-MB Flash SIMM, and the second socket is empty. You can upgrade the Flash memory to 32 MB on both routers. Each Cisco 3600 router ships standard with 16 MB of DRAM. The Cisco 3640 is expandable to 128 MB of DRAM. The Cisco 3620 is expandable to 64 MB of DRAM.

The Cisco 3600 series routers use a DRAM memory configuration that is different from other Cisco routers. Unlike the Cisco 4000 series routers, for example, which have separate physical locations for processor memory and packet memory, the Cisco 3600 series routers use one pool of DRAM memory. The DRAM is partitioned into processor memory and packet memory areas. For example, the memory of a 16-MB DRAM configuration is split into 12 MB for processor memory and 4 MB for the packet memory.

Note For guidelines on how to order the proper amount of memory to support different network module configurations, refer to product bulletin 544, 3600 Series Memory Options and Configuration Guide. This document is accessible from Cisco Connection On-line (CCO). The URL is http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/728/3600/index.html.

The Cisco 3600 allows you to load new system images using a PCMCIA Flash memory card. You can also load images from a local or remote PC through the console or auxiliary ports using the Xmodem or Ymodem protocols.

The Cisco IOS software available for the Cisco 3600 series routers is described in the following sections:

Software Feature Sets

This section describes Cisco IOS feature sets for the Cisco 3600 series routers.

The Cisco 3600 series offers the following type of feature sets:

Note Cisco IOS Release 11.1 does not include plus, Plus 40 or Plus 56 encryption feature sets.
Note Cisco IOS images with 40-bit Data Encryption Standard (DES) support may legally be distributed to any party eligible to receive Cisco IOS software. 40-bit DES is not a cryptographically strong solution so its use should be carefully evaluated.

Cisco IOS images with 56-bit DES are possibly subject to export and/or import controls and may have a limited distribution. For more information, contact your sales representative or distributor, or visit CCO at http://www.cisco.com/wwl/export/encrypt.html , or send e-mail to export@cisco.com.

The Cisco IOS feature set tables use the following conventions to identify features:

Software Feature Packs

Software feature packs consist of CD-ROMs that contain Cisco IOS software feature set images and a Windows 95 application, which loads the images onto a router.

Software feature packs are available for most of the Cisco IOS Release 11.2 feature set images listed in Chapter 2, "Cisco Internetworking Operating System (IOS) Software."

For more information about software feature packs, see Chapter 2, "Cisco Internetworking Operating System (IOS) Software."

Note You can also order a Cisco IOS software feature pack for Cisco 3640 and Cisco 3620 models.

Cisco IOS Feature Set Upgrades

Cisco IOS Release 11.2 and Release 11.1 for the Cisco 3600 series allow software upgrades that cross multiple feature sets. You can upgrade your software in the following three ways:

These upgrades require you to order multiple feature set licenses as shown in the following example:

You have a Cisco 3600 router running the Cisco IOS Release 11.1(7)AA IP routing (basic) feature set. You want to upgrade to the Cisco IOS Release 11.1(8)AA Enterprise Plus feature set. You are crossing two feature sets: one to get from IP to Enterprise, and one to get to Enterprise Plus (basic to Plus). To complete the upgrade, use the following guidelines:

Feature sets for Cisco IOS Releases 11.2 and 11.1 can be upgraded as listed in Table 10-23.


Table 10-23: Feature Set Upgrades for Cisco IOS Release 11.1 and Release 11.2
Upgrade Product Number1, 2
Plus upgrade FL36-P=
Plus 40 upgrade FL36-W=
Plus 56 upgrade FL36-Y=
APPN upgrade FL36-APPN=
IP to IP/IPX/AppleTalk/Dec FL36-CB= and SW36BY-xx.x.xx=
IP to Enterprise FL36-CA= and SW36CY-xx.x.xx=
IP/IPX/AppleTalk/DEC to Enterprise FL36-BA= and SW36CY-xx.x.xx=
IP/IPX to IP/IPX/AppleTalk/DEC FL36-DB= and SW36BY-xx.x.xx=
IP/IPX to Enterprise FL36-DA= and SW36CY-xx.x.xx=

1 Substitute the release number for xx.x.x in the product number (for example, SW160CP-11.1.8A=).
2 Many upgrade media product numbers (SW part numbers) are independent of their platform type. For example, the part number SW36BY-xx.x.xx= can upgrade a Cisco 3640 or Cisco 3620 router.

CiscoSecure EasyACS

CiscoSecure EasyACS (Version 1.0) is easy-to-use, access control server software designed to provide basic authentication, authorization, and accounting services on a Windows NT server for a single Cisco access server or firewall router. It is included on a CD-ROM with Cisco 3600 series routers. CiscoSecure EasyACS is also available via CCO if you have a Cisco 3600 series router installed at your site that is covered by a SMARTnet contract.
