Cisco IOS Firewall
The Cisco IOS Firewall enriches Cisco IOS Software security capabilities, integrating
robust firewall functionality and intrusion detection for every network perimeter. When
combined with Cisco IOS IPSec software and other Cisco IOS Software-based
technologies such as L2TP tunneling and quality of service (QoS), it provides a
complete, integrated virtual private network solution. Because it is available for a wide
range of Cisco routers, it gives customers the flexibility to choose a solution that meets
their bandwidth, LAN/WAN density, and multiservice requirements, while benefiting
from advanced security.
