Feature Overview

The enhancements described in this document are included in Cisco IOS Release 12.1(1) DC1. The NRP-SSG feature was first released in Cisco IOS Release 12.0(3) DC, and enhancements were added in Cisco IOS Releases 12.0(5) DC and 12.0(7) DC.

The NRP-SSG is a switching solution for service providers who offer intranet, extranet, and Internet connections to subscribers using high-speed data circuit equipment (DCE) such as asymmetric digital subscriber line (ADSL) to allow simultaneous access to network services. The NRP-SSG with Web Selection works in conjunction with the Cisco Service Selection Dashboard (SSD), an open source web-based server application that allows users to select from multiple passthrough and proxy services through a standard web browser.

Benefits

Local Forwarding

A new command enables NRP-SSG to forward packets locally.
