This chapter provides information on the Cisco 700 series of routers, which consists of the Cisco 760 series and the Cisco 770 series. The information is organized into the following sections:
The Cisco 700 series is the next generation of low-cost, easy-to-manage, multiprotocol ISDN access routers. These devices provide small professional offices, home offices, and telecommuters with high-speed remote access to enterprise networks and the Internet.
The Cisco 700 series consists of the Cisco 760 series and Cisco 770 series, which include the following models: Cisco 761, Cisco 762, Cisco 765, Cisco 766, Cisco 771, Cisco 772, Cisco 775, and Cisco 776.
The Cisco 700 series of routers provide the following features:
- Low-cost ownership for ISDN access
- The Cisco 761 and Cisco 771 routers provide a low-cost solution for connecting an Ethernet LAN to ISDN Basic Rate Interface (BRI) services. These routers are approved for use worldwide. The Cisco 762 and Cisco 772 include an integrated Network Termination 1 (NT1) device for ISDN users in North America.
- The Cisco 765, Cisco 766, Cisco 775, and Cisco 776 models include two analog telephone interfaces that allow standard telephones, fax machines, and modems to share the ISDN BRI line. This eliminates the need for multiple telephone lines or expensive ISDN telephones. These routers also support supplementary telephone services over ISDN including call waiting, cancel call-waiting, call retrieve, call hold, 3-way call conferencing, and call transfer.
- The Cisco 770 series is similar to the Cisco 760 series, but it includes a 4-port Ethernet hub. The Cisco 770 series also includes a call connect/disconnect switch on the front of the unit, which allows you to manually make or disconnect a data call.
- The Cisco 700 series can have its IP or IPX addresses dynamically assigned by the central site network using the Internet standard Multilink Point-to-Point Protocol. The workstations on the remote LAN can also have their IP addresses dynamically assigned by the central network or the Cisco 700 series using the Internet standard Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP).
- Cisco's dial-on-demand feature allows WAN connections to occur only when the router senses traffic that has been defined as "interesting" by the user or network administrator. With two ISDN BRI B channels, the Cisco 700 series can support simultaneous sessions with two sites and off-load network traffic from one channel to the other. For example, as bandwidth needs increase--such as when a large file transfer is initiated--the second B channel is brought up automatically to carry the additional traffic.
- Port and address translation
- The Cisco 700 series provides a feature known as port and address translation (PAT). Using PAT, the remote LAN can be configured as a private network that is invisible to the outside world. All data from the remote LAN appears to come from the Cisco 700 series router. This is also referred to as "many into one" capability. Additionally, the IP address of the routers can be set as a single node address instead of the more typical subnet address. This provides significant savings when connecting to an Internet service provider. It also relieves the network management burden for both the service provider and corporate network manager.
- A network that is invisible to the outside world provides firewall-type capabilities to protect network resources from unauthorized access. PAT is also used to allow privileged access to the network. For example, you can enable only specific types of data requests, such as web browsing, e-mail, or file transfers, to access a private network.
Note PAT may be considered an extension to the Internet standard known as Network Address Translation (NAT).
- All Cisco 700 series routers feature a Microsoft Windows 95 or Microsoft Windows NT 4.0 graphical software package that allows you to set up and monitor your router quickly and easily. The graphical software, together with color-coded cables and a quick reference guide, will help you set up in about 30 minutes or less. After you have set up the router, the monitoring features allow you to manage your ISDN calls with ease.
- Cisco's E-Z IP software feature set combines ease of use, flexibility, performance, and security to provide the most comprehensive remote access solution available. Cisco's E-Z IP features also address concerns regarding Internet Protocol (IP) address space configuration, conservation, and management.
- The Cisco 700 series is fully interoperable with Cisco IOS-based routers such as the Cisco 2500 series, Cisco 4000 series, and Cisco 7000 series using Multilink PPP for IP or IPX routing.
- Table 75 summarizes the features for the Cisco 760 series routers, and Table 76 summarizes the features for the Cisco 770 series routers.

The following three software feature sets are available for each Cisco 700 series router:
- Internet Ready
- Small Office/Home Office
- Remote Office
The base Internet Ready software feature set supports routing of the IP protocol for up to four devices. The Small Office/Home Office software feature set supports routing of IP and IPX for up to four devices with STAC compression. The Remote Office feature set supports IP and IPX routing with STAC compression for up to 1500 devices.
Software feature packs are available for the Cisco 700 series of routers. Software feature packs consist of CD-ROMs that contain 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 feature set images listed in Table 79.
For more information on feature packs see the "Cisco IOS Feature Packs" section in the "Cisco IOS Software" chapter earlier in the catalog.
This section lists the software product numbers for the Cisco 700 family. All Cisco 700 series routers are software upgradable. For example, you can select the Internet Ready feature set today and upgrade to the Small Office/Home Office or Remote Office feature set in the future. (See Table 80 for ordering information.)
Table 79 list the feature sets and product numbers for the Cisco 700 series, and Table 80 lists the software upgrades and product numbers for the Cisco 700 series.

-CH router bundles were created to provide customers with chassis/software combinations that meet their specific needs, and can be readily obtained through the two-tier distribution system. Software feature packs contain images which are easily transferred to routers, ensuring that customers have access to the latest IOS release at the time of purchase. The -CH routers are functionally identical to the non-CH routers--the only difference is that the software must be purchased separately in the form of a software feature pack CD.
For each -CH router listed above, order as described in this example:
- CISCO25XX-CH or AS25XX-XX-CH bundle router, pre-loaded with default IP software feature set.
Note: The default IP software loaded on the bundle router is not recommended for router operation, and is loaded only to facilitate the field installation of software images from the companion Software Feature Packs, purchased separately.
- Cisco Internetwork Operating System (Cisco IOSTM) Software Feature Pack
Optional Items
- Memory upgrades (both Flash Memory and Main Memory)
- WAN interface modules depending upon base router
- Cables and rack mount kits
- Service options, including SMARTnet comprehensive service plan
Each -CH bundle includes the following items:
- Cisco router pre-loaded with factory default IP software feature set
- Required hardware documentation, including documentation CD ROM
- Power Cable as requested by the distributor based on geographic theater
- Cross-over Ethernet cable in all Ethernet models for direct connect during software installation
A Software Feature Pack must be ordered with each -CH bundled router. Each Feature Pack includes a CD ROM with Cisco IOS software image versions recommended for installation and operation of the router. The Feature Pack CD's also include the Router Software Loader, a Windows-based installation tool for selecting and installing the proper software image. In the box are the Release Notes, describing the latest information on operating the router with the chosen image. The Software Feature Pack includes a single router license for the software image selected, and a software serial number label to be placed on the licensed router.
Cisco IOS images with 56-bit DES encryption are subject to International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) controls and have a limited distribution. Images to be installed outside the U. S. require an export license. For more information, send email to export@cisco.com.
The following routers are available in the -CH version:
