ASR1001-2.5G-SECK9 Use Case
Optimized Branch-to-Headquarters VPN with Integrated Firewall
A mid-sized manufacturing firm deployed the ASR1001-2.5G-SECK9 (ASR 1001 VPN+FW BNDL 2.5G BASE SYSTEM AESK9 LICENSE) in 20 branch offices to establish 2.5 Gbps IPsec tunnels with AES-256 encryption and built-in firewall. Real-time ERP traffic now traverses the private network with sub-5 ms latency and 99.95% uptime. Outcome: centralized policy enforcement, a 40% reduction in capex by removing standalone appliances, and end-to-end security compliance.
Scalable Cloud On-Ramp with High-Throughput IPsec VPN
An e-commerce leader migrating mission-critical workloads to AWS integrated the ASR1001-2.5G-SECK9 at its data center edge. Leveraging the AESK9 license, it terminates multiple concurrent IPsec tunnels at line-rate 2.5 Gbps and enforces unified firewall policies. Outcome: secure, high-speed connectivity directly into public cloud, accelerates cloud migration by 50%, and eliminates the need for separate VPN and firewall appliances.
Unified Security and Routing for Financial Branch Consolidation
A regional bank consolidated 15 remote branches onto a single platform by deploying the ASR1001-2.5G-SECK9. It now supports 2.5 Gbps VPN backhaul, IOS-based stateful firewall, NAT and QoS in one chassis. Outcome: achieves PCI-DSS compliance, reduces firewall appliance sprawl by 70%, ensures consistent security posture across branches, and simplifies 24/7 network monitoring.
