The Cisco Catalyst IR1101 Rugged Series Router is a next-generation modular industrial router, which has a base platform with additional pluggable modules that can be added. The pluggable modules provide the flexibility of adding different interfaces to the IR1101 platform, for example, a cellular module, which provides 5G and Fourth-Generation Long-Term Evolution (4G LTE) cellular networks.

The IR1101 also has expansion modules that adds key capabilities to the IR1101. The expansion modules are:

The Cisco Catalyst IR1800 Rugged Series Router is a modular industrial router. The IR1800 series has four base platforms with additional pluggable modules that can be added. The pluggable modules provide the flexibility of adding different interfaces to the base platform.

• IR1821

• IR1831

• IR1833

• IR1835

The IR1800 series features a base platform with modularity, which includes:

The features in the following table are new in this release for the supported devices.

From Cisco IOS XE Release 17.14.1a, the support for weaker cryptographic algorithms is deprecated. Protocols such as IPsec, SSH, OSPF, and SNMP are modified to enhance network security, integrity, and confidentiality. The deprecated features for each protocol are as follows:

• IPSec: Keywords in the following commands are deprecated:

  • IKEv1 Policy

  • IKEv2 Proposal

  • IPsec Transform-set

  • IPSec Profile

  See the IPsec Field Notice for more information.

• SSH: RSA key sizes that are less than 2048 bits are not supported. See the SSH Field Notice for more information.

• OSPF: Some keywords are deprecated in the encryption and authentication commands. See the OSPF Field Notice for more information.

• SNMP: SNMP does not support certain algorithms in the user authentication commands. See the SNMP Field Notice for more information.
