VRF Aware System Message Logging (Syslog)
isis metric and isis ipv6 metric Commands
The maximum keyword has been added to the isis metric and isis ipv6 metric commands so that you can set the Intermediate System-to-Intermediate System (IS-IS) metric to the maximum link metric. Entering the maximum keyword excludes the link from the SPF calculation. If a link is advertised with the maximum link metric, the link is not considered during the normal SPF calculation. When the link is excluded from the SPF, it is not advertised for calculating the normal SPF. An example is a link that is available for traffic engineering, but not for hop-by-hop routing.
For the isis metric command, the maximum keyword is available under the subinterface configuration mode.

Gigabit EtherChannel
Gigabit EtherChannel (GEC) allows gigabit per second transmission rates and provides flexible, scalable bandwidth with resiliency and load sharing across links for switches, router interfaces, and servers. GEC combines multiple physical Gigabit Ethernet links into one channel, which manages load sharing of traffic among the links in the channel as well as redundancy if one or more links in the channel should fail; Unicast, broadcast, and multicast traffic is distributed across the links, providing higher performance and redundant parallel paths. If a link fails, traffic is redirected to remaining links within the EtherChannel without user intervention.
Based on the functionality, the GEC is the same as the Fast EtherChannel (FEC) except for the following:
•
The interfaces added to the channel are Gigabit Ethernet interfaces.
•
Because the onboard Gigabit Ethernet supports jumbo frames, there is a difference in the range of the MTU supported.
On the Cisco 7200, native (onboard) Gigabit Ethernet supports jumbo frames. The maximum transmission unit (MTU) supported on native Gigabit Ethernet ports is 9216. By default, the EtherChannel takes an MTU size in the range of 1500 to 10240 bytes. Once the first interface is added to the channel and an MTU is configured on it, the MTU range of the EtherChannel changes from its default value to the range supported by the first interface added to the channel.

http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/software/ios123/123newft/123t/123t_7/gtaclace.htm
ACL Performance Enhancement
An IP access control list (ACL) is a Cisco IOS software feature that allows an administrator to configure a network to permit and deny packets based on a set of ACL entries, thus improving security and control within a network. These lists contain entries that are searched sequentially for matches among certain fields in Layer 3 and Layer 4 packet headers.
Before Cisco IOS Release 12.3(2)T, ACL entries were sequentially configured and stored. This implementation caused the first match in a search to be the first ACL entry in a given list, not the entry that provided the best match. Although this implementation was straightforward and logical, it did not scale well with the number of ACL entries in an ACL.
Cisco IOS Release 12.3(2)T implements ACLs using hierarchical radix tries (sometimes called multilevel tries, backtracking tries, or tries-of-tries) to improve matching performance. Individual tries are made for the source prefix and the destination prefix, with additional ACL entry information such as TCP ports, TCP flags, and time ranges being held at the nodes. Cisco IOS software performs a best match lookup for the given set of prefixes. This new implementation is an internal improvement that supports all existing functionality, and the sequential searching properties that cause ACLs to check the entries from start to end and stop searching for a match as soon as one is found are still valid.
The benefits of implementing of ACLs using hierarchical radix tries are as follows:
•
Memory usage is made more efficient.
•
Less system resources are required to maintain the tries information.
•
Performance of ACL matching is improved for larger access lists.

Advanced Encryption Standard (AES)
The Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) feature adds support for the new encryption standard AES, with cipher block chaining (CBC) mode, to IP Security (IPSec). AES is a privacy transform for IPSec and Internet Key Exchange (IKE) that has been developed to replace the Data Encryption Standard (DES). AES is designed to be more secure than DES: AES offers a larger key size, while ensuring that the only known approach to decrypt a message is for an intruder to try every possible key. AES has a variable key length—the algorithm can specify a 128-bit key (the default), a 192-bit key, or a 256-bit key.

Analog Centralized Automatic Message Accounting (CAMA) E911 Trunk
The Cisco 1751 and Cisco 1760 routers now support analog centralized automatic message accounting (CAMA) trunks on the two- and four-port Foreign Exchange Office (FXO) cards. The VIC2-2FXO and VIC2-4FXO cards are now user configurable for CAMA mode operation on a port-by-port basis. For example, on the VIC2-2FXO card, port 0 can be configured for CAMA, and port 1 can be configured for FXO-M1 operation.
The CAMA feature offers the following benefits:
•
Direct connection to the E911 network
•
Compliance with current legislation requiring enterprises to connect directly to the E911 network
•
Trunk capabilities to emergency services that are not currently supported on any Cisco product
•

Blinking LEDs to Indicate DSL Line Training
The ADSL LED Blinking feature provides information on the status of a DSL line. ADSL Tx/Rx is used for this purpose. There are three distinct blinking patterns that indicate the various states of a DSL line when it is training.
1.
When the firmware is being downloaded within the router, the LED remains on for 700 ms and goes off for 300 ms.
2.
When the modem state is MODEM_ACT_ACK (0x8), the router is waiting to hear from the central office (CO) and is not yet seeing an incoming signal. During this time, the LED will be on and off for 50 ms each.
3.
When the modem state is MODEM_TRAINING (0x10), the LED will always be on. This means that the DSL line is training.
Shortly after the DSL line has started training, the modem state changes to SHOWTIME, and then the router is successfully trained with the DSLAM.
Note
The CD LED on the front panel will be off during the DSL line training process. This is different from the normal operation when packets are being transmitted or received.

Call Routing Enhancements to the H.323 Gatekeeper and GKTMP (GK API)
These features improve routing flexibility in customer networks in which an external route server is used to select potential endpoints for call completion.
•
Nonblocking GKTMP (GK API): Timing changes are associated with recovery processing when socket errors occur.
•
Separate DNIS for Alternate Endpoints: It is now possible to associate a unique DNIS with each alternate endpoint.
•
Support for "z" Tag in RESPONSE xRQ: This support enhances the responses that a route server can provide to the H.323 gatekeeper to allow greater flexibility for combinations of gateway endpoints and gatekeepers.
Calling Line Identification for Spain and Austria
Caller ID (sometimes called CLID or ICLID for incoming call line identification) is an analog service offered by a central office (CO), that supplies calling party information to subscribers. Typically, the calling party number, and sometimes the name, appears on a station (also called extension) device such as a PC telephony software application screen or the display on a telephone. Type 1 Caller ID show the calling party information while the call is ringing, and Type 2 Caller ID shows the calling number display while the recipient is on another call. Type 1 Caller ID is supported in this release.
The Caller ID feature supports the sending of calling party information from Foreign Exchange Station (FXS) loop-start and ground-start ports into a Caller-ID-equipped telephone device. The FXS port emulates the extension interface of a PBX or the subscriber interface for a CO switch.
Spain and Austria both use the ETSI-FSK method for sending the caller number to the analog phone.

The following is a list of Cisco IOS voice features that have been introduced in various Cisco IOS releases and that are now supported on the Cisco 1700 series platforms as part of Cisco IOS Release 12.3(11)T.
The following Cisco IOS VoIP features are supported on the Cisco 1700 series platforms for Cisco IOS Release 12.3(11)T:
•
H.323v4: Enhanced Call Usage Reporting
•
H.323v4 Gateway Zone Prefix Registration Enhancements
•
SIP Call Transfer and Call Forwarding
•
VoIP and Cisco Express Forwarding (CEF) Interoperability
•
VoIP and Policy Based Routing (PBR) Interoperability
H.323v4: Enhanced Call Usage Reporting
This feature provides H.323v4 enhancements that provide standards-based call usage reporting to the gatekeeper from an H.323 gateway. This information is used by the gatekeeper to generate call detail records (CDRs).
For more information, see the following documents:
•

H.323v4 Gateway Zone Prefix Registration Enhancements
This feature provides support for two capabilities included in H.323, version 4: additive registration and dynamic zone prefix registration. Additive registration allows a gateway to add to or modify a list of aliases contained in a previous registration without first unregistering from the gatekeeper. Dynamic zone prefix registration allows a gateway to register actual PSTN destinations served by the gateway with its gatekeeper.

SIP Call Transfer and Call Forwarding
This feature introduces the ability of Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) gateways to initiate blind or attended call transfers. Release Link Trunking (RLT) functionality is also added. With RLT, SIP blind call transfers can now be triggered by channel-associated signaling (CAS) trunk signaling. This feature also implements SIP support of call forwarding requests from a Cisco IOS gateway.
For more information, see the Cisco IOS SIP Configuration Guide:
http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/software/ios123/123cgcr/vvfax_c/callc_c/sip_c/sipc1_c/index.htm
VoIP and Cisco Express Forwarding (CEF) Interoperability
This functionality enables Cisco Express Forwarding of VoIP signaling and payload packets that originate from voice interfaces and interactive voice response (IVR) applications.
This feature modifies the Voice over IP (VoIP) and IVR programming so that they can interoperate with features that are supported only in the CEF path (not in the fast-switching path that VoX uses). Voice and IVR work only in the fast path on the routers where they are originated and terminated (voice and IVR on "transit" routers are just data packets and of course can be CEF-switched).
This feature enables policy-based routing of VoIP traffic that originates or terminates on the specified voice gateways and introduces voice packet differentiated services code point (DSCP) marking for Media Gateway Control Protocol (MGCP) voice gateways.
For more information, see the VoIP Interoperability with Cisco Express Forwarding and Policy-Based Routing document:
http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/software/ios123/123cgcr/vvfax_c/vclcef.htm
VoIP and Policy Based Routing (PBR) Interoperability
PBR gives you a flexible means of routing packets by allowing you to configure a defined policy for traffic flows, lessening reliance on routes derived from routing protocols. To this end, PBR gives you more control over routing by extending and complementing the existing mechanisms provided by routing protocols. PBR allows you to set the IP precedence. It also allows you to specify a path for certain traffic, such as priority traffic over a high-cost link.
PBR allows you to perform the following tasks:
•
Classify traffic according to extended access list criteria. Access lists, then, establish the match criteria.
•
Set IP precedence bits, giving the network the ability to enable differentiated classes of service.
•
Route packets to specific traffic-engineered paths; you might need to route them to allow a specific QoS through the network.
For more information, see the VoIP Interoperability with Cisco Express Forwarding and Policy-Based Routing document:
http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/software/ios123/123cgcr/vvfax_c/vclcef.htm

Cisco Conferencing and Transcoding for Voice Gateway Routers
The Cisco Conferencing and Transcoding for Voice Gateway Routers feature enables voice conferencing among conferees at small, remote branch offices or distributed sites using local resources, without calls having to traverse the company WAN to the central site that supports such services.
The feature also provides transcoding at the remote site. Different IP telephony devices support different codecs, and, for communications to be enabled between them, transcoding is required. The feature provides transcoding at the remote site, without having to access transcoding services at the central site.
To provide these services, the feature takes advantage of unused DSP resources on a network module in an already existing small or midsize Cisco router at the remote site. The collection of DSP resources so made available is called a DSP farm. The DSP farm is managed at a central office or branch office by Cisco CallManager, the software-based call-processing component of the Cisco IP telephony solution.
The Cisco Conferencing and Transcoding for Voice Gateway Routers feature was originally supported in Cisco IOS Release 12.2(13)T. This feature is now supported on the Cisco Catalyst 4000 Access Gateway Module (AGM). See the following document for additional information:

With this enhancement, customers can now use the set command to configure packet marking actions in the child classes as well as in the parent classes of a hierarchical policy map.
For more information about class-based packet marking, see the "Classification" part of the Cisco IOS Quality of Service Solutions Configuration Guide.
For more information about the set command, see the Cisco IOS Quality of Service Solutions Command Reference, Cisco IOS Release 12.3T.
Class-Based QoS MIB (CBQoSMIB)
The Class-Based Quality of Service Management Information Base (CBQoS MIB) provides access to quality of service (QoS) configuration information and statistics. The CBQoS MIB allows service providers to monitor their QoS offerings. This MIB gives router QoS configuration such as ClassMap, PolicyMap, Match Statements, and Feature Actions configuration parameters. The MIB also contains counter objects that give statistics such as the number of packets traversed conforming to a policing feature. The MIB uses several indexes to identify QoS features and to distinguish among instances of those features. The MIB provides information about marking and policing done using IP precedence and differentiated services code point (DSCP).
Class-Based QoS MIB (CBQoSMIB) Enhancements
This feature enhances the Class-Based Quality of Service (QoS) MIB (CBQoSMIB) in Cisco IOS software. For information about the CBQoSMIB and to locate and download MIBs for selected platforms, Cisco IOS releases, and feature sets, use Cisco MIB Locator found at the following URL:
http://tools.cisco.com/ITDIT/MIBS/servlet/index
Class-Based QoS MIB (CBQoSMIB) Enhancements III
Several MIB objects and tables have been added to the CBQoSMIB to reflect the enhanced functionality of the modular QoS CLI (MQC). These MIB objects and tables provide enhanced traffic policing, shaping, and marking functionality.
The following MIB objects and tables were added to the CBQoSMIB:
•
Two time-based MIB objects, burst ms and excess burst ms, used when you are configuring traffic policing.
These parameters were added to allow you to specify the appropriate burst values to be used for policing traffic. However, these two parameters can be used when you are configuring traffic policing on the basis of a percentage of bandwidth only.
For more information about configuring traffic policing on the basis of a percentage of bandwidth, see the Percentage-Based Policing and Shaping feature at the following URL:
http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/software/ios122/122newft/122t/122t13/ftpctpol.htm
•
Two time-based MIB objects, sustained burst size in ms and excess burst size in ms, used when you are configuring traffic shaping.
These parameters were added to allow you to specify the appropriate burst values to be used for shaping traffic. However, these parameters can be used when you are configuring traffic shaping (either average-rate traffic shaping or peak-rate traffic shaping) on the basis of a percentage of bandwidth only.
Note
The sustained burst size in ms and excess burst size in ms objects are not currently supported on the Cisco 7500 series router. Therefore, on the Cisco 7500 series router, the counters for these two MIB objects will display zeros.
For more information about configuring traffic shaping on the basis of a percentage of bandwidth, see the Percentage-Based Policing and Shaping feature at the following URL:
http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/software/ios122/122newft/122t/122t13/ftpctpol.htm
•
One table used to count statistical data associated with the various set commands available in Cisco IOS software.
For more information about the Cisco IOS set commands, see the Cisco command reference publications for the Cisco IOS release that you are using.
•
Three tables used to support the Enhanced Packet Marking feature available with Cisco IOS Release 12.2(13)T.
For more information about the Enhanced Packet Marking feature, see the following URL:
http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/software/ios122/122newft/122t/122t13/ftenpkmk.htm

http://tools.cisco.com/ITDIT/MIBS/servlet/index
Class-Based Traffic Policing with CLP Tagging
When configured on the router, the Class-Based Traffic Policing with CLP Tagging feature polices the flow of cells in the forward (into the network) direction of a virtual connection. The traffic policing mechanism determines whether received cells comply with the negotiated traffic management values and tags the cell with a CLP bit value of 1. The purpose of this feature is to mark traffic that does not meet the traffic management values so that packets that exceed the set values can be dropped by the network if the network is congested.

Distributed Dial-on-Demand Routing
In previous Cisco IOS software releases, distributed Cisco Express Forwarding (dCEF) is not supported for dialer interfaces on the Cisco 7500 series router. The Distributed Dial-on-Demand Routing (DDR) feature introduces the ability for the Cisco 7500 series router to perform dCEF switching on dialer interfaces. dCEF switching increases the performance of the router by moving processing from the Route Processor (RP) to the line card (LC).
The Distributed DDR feature can be used with all current dialer configurations—dialer profile interfaces, legacy dialer interfaces, and Multilink PPP on dialer interfaces. All pool members of the dialer interface must share the same Versatile Interface Processor (VIP) and the same type of port adaptor (PA). Quality of service (QoS) is not currently supported for the Distributed DDR feature. A VIP2-50 or higher is recommended for running the Distributed DDR feature.
No configuration commands are required to enable the Distributed DDR feature; however dCEF must be enabled. If dCEF is not enabled, processing will occur on the RP as it would in previous releases of Cisco IOS software that lack the Distributed DDR feature. The Distributed DDR feature can be disabled by globally disabling dCEF or by configuring the no ip route-cache distributed command on the dialer interface or D-channel interface.

DNS Proxy
In Virtual Private Network (VPN) or PPP over Ethernet (PPPoE) scenarios, the router on the LAN may act as a local Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server and may receive requests for Domain Name System (DNS) server IP addresses from devices on the LAN. The DNS Proxy feature allows the router to send its own LAN address to devices that request DNS server IP addresses and to forward DNS queries to the real DNS servers after the WAN connection is established. The router can thus act as a proxy for devices on the LAN.
In forwarding DNS queries, the router caches the responses from the real DNS servers. Over time, the router's cache accumulates the DNS information most often requested, enabling the router to respond to most DNS queries coming from the LAN and reducing the packet overhead on the WAN interface.
In order for the DNS Proxy feature to work, the router must obtain the IP address of the real DNS server from the WAN when the WAN connection is established.
The ip dns server global configuration command enables DNS proxy server functionality on the router and causes the router to forward DNS queries to the actual DNS servers. The dns-server address global configuration command causes the router to respond to DNS queries with its own IP address.

FACILITY Debug Enhancement
Overview
This feature enables display of ASN.1-encoded ISDN FACILITY Information Element (IE) contents. All supported operations of the ISDN supplementary services—Advice of Charge (AOC), Two B-Channel Transfer (TBCT), Explicit Call Transfer (ECT), and Malicious Call Identification (MCID)—are now included as part of the debug messages. Prior to this enhancement, the debug isdn q931 command displayed the contents of the FACILITY IE in its raw hexadecimal format. Now, the parameters of FACILITY IE are displayed in text format along with parameter values where they are applicable and as they are relevant to the operation. In addition, the ASN.1-encoded Notification structure of the Notification-Indicator IE is also decoded. This debugging information is available for both incoming and outgoing FACILITY IEs in any message over an ISDN interface.
The debug isdn q931 command must be enabled to display the contents of the FACILITY IE. Following are examples of new messages displayed in the debug isdn q931 command output. See the debug isdn q931 command page for more details about the information displayed by the FACILITY IE.

Firewall Authentication Proxy for FTP and Telnet Sessions
The authentication proxy in the Cisco IOS firewall feature set currently supports only the HTTP protocol. Authentication proxy support has been extended to the FTP/Telnet protocols with this release. This release also introduces absolute timeout functionality to the authentication proxy feature. The absolute timeout sets a time window during which the authentication proxy on the enabled interface is active. As the absolute timer expires, the authentication proxy will be disabled. The addition of the absolute timeout upgrades the functionality of the authentication proxy and also meets the firewall requirements.
Firewall Intrusion Detection System (IDS) Enhancements
The Cisco IOS Intrusion Detection System (IDS) feature supports intrusion detection technology on all the Cisco IOS-based router platforms when the Cisco IOS firewall is present. The Cisco IOS IDS feature identifies 101 of the most common attacks, using signatures to detect patterns of misuse in network traffic. The Cisco IOS IDS acts as an in-line intrusion detection sensor, watching packets and sessions as they flow through the router, scanning each to match any of the IDS signatures. When the Cisco IOS IDS detects suspicious activity, it responds before network security can be compromised, and it logs the event through the Cisco IOS syslog or the Cisco Secure Intrusion Detection System (Cisco Secure IDS, formerly known as NetRanger) Post Office Protocol. The network administrator can configure the IDS system to choose the appropriate response to various threats.
Firewall N2H2 Support
N2H2 is globally deployed third-party URL filtering software that can filter HTTP requests, based on destination hostname, destination IP address, username, and password. It relies on a sophisticated URL database of more than 15 million sites organized into more than 40 categories using both Internet technology and human review. This feature enables the Cisco IOS firewall to do URL filtering based on the N2H2 server. When a Cisco 800 router receives an HTTP request, it sends a query request to the N2H2 server with the requested URL. The N2H2 server does some necessary lookups for the URL and sends back a query response. Based on the N2H2 server's response, the router either blocks the HTTP request by redirecting the browser to a block page or proceeds with normal HTTP processing.
For more information on this feature, see the following URL:
Firewall Support for SIP
This feature allows Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) signaling requests to traverse directly between gateways or through a series of proxies to the destination gateway or phone. After the initial request, if the Record-Route header field is not used, subsequent requests can traverse directly to the destination gateway address as specified in the Contact header field. Thus, the Cisco IOS firewall is aware of all surrounding proxies and gateways and allows the following functionality:
•
SIP signaling responses can travel the same path as SIP signaling requests.
•
Subsequent signaling requests can travel directly to the endpoint (destination gateway).
•
Media endpoints can exchange data.
For more information on this feature, see the following URL:
Firewall Support of SSL Encrypted HTTP Authentication Proxy Sign-On
The Firewall Support of SSL Encrypted HTTP Authentication Proxy Sign-On feature allows a user to encrypt the change of the username and password between the HTTP client and the Cisco IOS router via Secure Socket Layer (SSL) when authentication proxy is enabled on the Cisco IOS firewall, thereby ensuring confidentiality of the data passing between the HTTP client and the Cisco IOS router.
Firewall Websense URL Filtering
Websense is a third-party URL filtering software program that can filter HTTP requests, based on destination hostname, destination IP address, keywords, and username. Websense maintains a URL database of more than 20 million sites organized into more than 60 categories and subcategories. This feature enables the Cisco IOS firewall to do URL filtering based on the Websense server. When a Cisco 800 router receives an HTTP request, it sends a query request to the Websense server with the requested URL. The Websense server does some necessary lookups for the URL and sends back a query response. Based on the Websense server's response, the router either blocks the HTTP request by redirecting the browser to a block page or proceeds with normal HTTP processing.

Four-Wire Mode for SHDSL
The Four-Wire Mode for SHDSL feature adds four-wire support in fixed line-rate mode only on a single-port multiline G.SHDSL WIC or WIC-1SHDSL-V2. This feature builds on the existing features of the Multirate Symmetrical High-Speed Digital Subscriber Line (G.SHDSL) feature supported on the 1-port G.SHDSL WIC (WIC-1SHDSL). Four-Wire Mode for SHDSL supports the Cisco 2600XM series, Cisco 2691, Cisco 3600, and Cisco 3700 series routers and incorporates the latest firmware and the latest circuitry. The four-wire feature of G.991.2 doubles the bandwidth in ATM mode and increases usable distance over two pairs of wires.

Frame Relay—Multilink (MLFR-FRF.16)
The Multilink Frame Relay feature introduces functionality based on the Frame Relay Forum Multilink Frame Relay UNI/NNI Implementation Agreement (FRF.16). This feature provides a cost-effective way to increase bandwidth for particular applications by enabling multiple serial links to be aggregated into a single bundle of bandwidth. Multilink Frame Relay is supported on User-to-Network Interfaces (UNIs) and Network-to-Network Interfaces (NNIs) in Frame Relay networks.
Frame Relay Switched Virtual Circuits (SVC) over ISDN
The Frame Relay Switched Virtual Circuits over ISDN feature provides support for Frame Relay switched virtual circuits (SVCs) over ISDN BRI lines. Before the introduction of this feature, Frame Relay over ISDN supported Frame Relay permanent virtual circuits (PVCs) only. Frame Relay SVCs can be configured on dialer or BRI interfaces in the same way that SVCs are configured on serial interfaces.

Hookflash and DTMF Relay Transfer
Hookflash and DTMF Relay Transfer is a cost-effective way to transfer customer calls from first-level technical support to other agent groups for second-level support. The circuit between the transferrer and the transferee is released after the transferrer initiates the transfer and the remote switch connects the transferee and the transfer target.
Hot Standby Router Protocol (HSRP)
Hot Standby Router Protocol (HSRP) enables a set of routers to work together to present the appearance of a single virtual router or default gateway to the hosts on a LAN. HSRP is particularly useful in environments in which critical applications are running and fault-tolerant networks have been designed. By sharing an IP address and a MAC address, two or more routers that are acting as one virtual router are able to seamlessly assume the routing responsibility in the case of a defined event or an unexpected failure. This enables hosts on a LAN to continue forwarding IP packets to a consistent IP and MAC address so that the changeover of devices that are doing the routing is transparent to them and their sessions.
The routers in an HSRP configuration are known as an HSRP group or standby group. A single router selected from the group is responsible for forwarding the packets that hosts send to the virtual router. This router is known as the active router. Another router is selected as the standby router. If the active router fails, the standby router assumes the packet forwarding duties of the active router. Although an arbitrary number of routers may run HSRP, only the active router forwards the packets sent to the virtual router.
HSRP uses a priority scheme to determine which HSRP-configured router is to be the default active router. To configure a router as an active router, the router is assigned a priority that is higher than the priority of all the other HSRP-configured routers. The default priority is 100. If any of the routers is configured with a higher priority, those routers will be the active router.
HSRP works by the exchange of multicast messages that advertise priority among HSRP-configured routers. When the active router fails to send a hello message within a configured period of time, the standby router with highest priority becomes the active router. The transition of the packet-forwarding function between routers is completely transparent to all the hosts on the network.
HSRP-configured routers exchange three types of multicast messages.
•
Hello—The hello messages convey to other HSRP routers the router's HSRP priority and state information. By default, an HSRP router sends hello messages every 3 seconds.
•
Coup—When a standby router assumes the function of the active router, it sends a coup message.
•
Resign—A router that is the active router sends this message when it is about to shut down or when a router with a higher priority sends a hello message.
At any time, HSRP-configured routers will be in one of the following states:
•
Active—The router is performing packet-transfer functions.
•
Standby—The router is ready to assume packet-transfer functions if the active router fails.
•
Speaking and listening—The router is sending and receiving hello messages.
•
Listening—The router is receiving hello messages.

IP to ATM CoS Enhancements
The IP to ATM CoS feature implements a solution for coarse-grained mapping of quality of service (QoS) characteristics between IP and ATM, using Cisco Enhanced ATM port adapters (PA-A3) on Cisco 7200 and Cisco 7500 series routers. This category of coarse-grained QoS is often referred to as class of service (CoS). The resulting feature makes it possible to support differential services in network service provider environments.
With the Cisco IOS Release 12.3(4)T, the IP to ATM CoS feature has been enhanced to include support for the Cisco 7500 series router with either the PA-A3-8T1 IMA or PA-A3-8E1 IMA port adapters.
For more information about the IP to ATM CoS feature, see the "Quality of Service Solutions" section of the Cisco IOS Quality of Service Solutions Configuration Guide.
IPHC (cRTP/cUDP/cTCP)
Internet Protocol Header Compression (IPHC) includes compressed Routing Table Protocol (cRTP), compressed User Datagram Protocol (cUDP), and compressed Transport Control Protocol (cTCP) and allows low speed links to run more efficiently when IP headers are extremely large or of comparable size to the payload.
An IPHC-enabled interface sends only changes to the header instead of sending the entire header with every packet.
At the beginning of a transmission, the transmitting end (the compressor) sends a full header packet to the receiving end (the decompressor). After this initial packet, the compressor sends all other packets with headers that contain only the differences between them and the original full header. The decompressor maintains a copy of the original full header and reconstructs all the other packet headers by adding the changes to them.
IPSec and Quality of Service

IPsec NAT Transparency
The IPSec NAT Transparency feature introduces support for IP Security (IPSec) traffic to travel through the Network Address Translation (NAT) or Point Address Translation (PAT) point in the network by addressing many known incompatibilities between NAT and IPSec. This feature encapsulates IPSec packets in a User Datagram Protocol (UDP) wrapper, which allows the packets to travel across NAT devices.
A standard IPSec Virtual Private Network (VPN) tunnel would not work if there are one or more NAT or PAT points in the delivery path of the IPSec packet. This feature makes NAT IPSec aware, thereby allowing remote access users to build IPSec tunnels to home gateways.
IPSec Preferred Peer

IPv6 IOS Firewall FTP Application Support
Cisco IOS IPv6 Firewall FTP application support is provided by port-to-application mapping (PAM). PAM allows you to customize TCP or UDP port numbers for network services or applications. PAM uses this information to support network environments that run services using ports that are different from the registered or well-known ports associated with an application.
For more information about this feature, see the following document:

IPv6 Multicast: Bootstrap Router (BSR)
For Cisco IOS IPv6 multicast implementations, PIM routers in a domain must be able to map each multicast group to the correct RP address. The BSR protocol for PIM-SM provides a dynamic, adaptive mechanism to distribute group-to-RP mapping information rapidly throughout a domain. With the IPv6 BSR feature, if an RP becomes unreachable, it will be detected and the mapping tables will be modified so that the unreachable RP is no longer used, and the new tables will be rapidly distributed throughout the domain.
