DATA SHEET
The Cisco® 2600/2800/3700/3800 Series Application-Oriented Networking Module (Figure 1) is a network module for Cisco routers. It is part of a new class of products from Cisco Systems® that provide an essential point of convergence between today's intelligent networks and applications based on highly distributed, service-oriented and traditional architectures. Cisco Application-Oriented Networking (AON) technology embeds a new class of application intelligence into the network to better meet the underlying needs of applications for real-time visibility, security, event-based messaging, optimized delivery, and other core integration and deployment services.
Figure 1. Cisco AON Network Module
The Cisco 2600/2800/3700/3800 series of modular access routers (Figure 2) enable dramatically higher levels of application and service integration at branch offices. They extend enterprise/provider-class versatility, integration, and power to branch offices.
Figure 2. Cisco 3800 Series Router
The Cisco AON network module offers a higher level of performance while providing a cost-effective solution to meet small and midsize branch office needs.
Cisco state-of-the-art design incorporates hardware and software components pre-integrated into a complete subsystem that can be flexibly deployed in enterprise data centers, service provider networks, or other scenarios as an embedded network function. Included with the Cisco AON network module are software tools for managing and provisioning Cisco AON nodes, as well as for designing application policies using a library of "bladelets," which can be configured in different sequences as required. The Cisco AON network module also includes a software development kit and API for flexible extension to any custom environment, operation, or format.
The network module provides operational consistency and reduces total cost of ownership by consolidating elements of network and application infrastructures and providing centralized management.
