Cisco 1841 and Cisco 2801 Routers
Branch office networking requirements are dramatically evolving, driven by web and e-commerce
applications to enhance productivity and merging the voice and data infrastructure to reduce costs. The
Cisco 1841 and Cisco 2801 routers provide a scalable, secure, manageable remote access server that
meets FIPS 140-2 Level 2 requirements. This section describes the general features and functionality
provided by the routers. The following subsections describe the physical characteristics of the routers.
The Cisco 1841 Cryptographic Module Physical Characteristics
Figure 1
The Cisco 1841 Router is a multiple-chip standalone cryptographic module. The router has a processing
speed of 240MHz. Depending on configuration, either the installed AIM-VPN/BPII-Plus module,
onboard FPGA or the IOS software is used for cryptographic operations.
The cryptographic boundary of the module is the device's case, shown in
functionality discussed in this document is provided by components within this cryptographic boundary.
The interface for the router is located on the rear panel as shown in
Figure 2 Cisco 1841 Rear Panel Physical Interfaces
The Cisco 1841 router features a console port, an auxiliary port, Universal Serial Bus (USB) port, two
high-speed WAN interface card/WAN interface card/Voice interface card (HWIC/WIC/VIC) slots, two
10/100 Fast Ethernet RJ45 ports, and a Compact Flash (CF) drive. The Cisco 1841 router supports
AIM-VPN/BPII-Plus card and two fast Ethernet connections.
panel contains 2 LEDs that output status data about the system status (SYS OK) and system activity
(SYS ACT). The back panel consists of 8 LEDs: two duplex LEDs, two speed LEDs, two link LEDs, CF
LED and AIM LED.
