Product Migration Options

The recommended replacements for the Cisco 1710 Security Access Router are the Cisco 1711 and 1712 security access routers (Table 3). The Cisco 1711 and 1712 security access routers are designed to support advanced security features and deliver high performance at the same price as the Cisco 1710 Security Access Router. Additionally, the Cisco 1711 and 1712 security access routers offer an integrated 4-port 10/100BASE-T Ethernet switch and an integrated WAN interface for backup connectivity. These benefits are some of the advantages over the Cisco 1710 Security Access Router.
