List of Cisco IPv6 Capable Routers

    • Cisco is a network technology company that focuses on training, routers, switches, wireless access points, optical networking and information security. As the Internet moves on, more IPv4 addresses become depleted. These 32-bit IP addresses are limited to approximately 4 billion total. IPv6, a successor to IPv4, resolves the issue by using 128-bit addressing systems. This provides plenty of addresses. So many, in fact, that every person alive could be assigned trillions of IP addresses. This different addressing scheme requires routers capable of supporting it. Cisco makes a number of IPv6 compatible routers for all different budgets.

    Cisco Catalyst 4500

    • The Cisco Catalyst 4500 delivers 848 gigabits per second with 48 gigabits per second per slot. It has up to 240 power-providing Ethernet ports that deliver up to 30 watts of power each. It is a foundation model that is the leading seller for large campus networks. The U.S. government has tested the model and certified it as compliant with IPv6 standards.

    Cisco ISR 1800

    • The Cisco Integrated Service Router 1800 is a compact router designed for small offices. It offers wireless capabilities and supports VPN tunneling and power over Ethernet. The device offers Cisco's router security configurations, allowing you to deploy firewall rules over IPv6 specifications. The U.S. government has certified this router as IPv6 capable.

    Cisco 7600

    • Cisco 7600 routers provide 720 gigabits per second of transfer. It has a number of adapters and dedicated processors that control audio, video and data quality of service management. Optimized for the high-bandwidth requirements of video-on-demand services, it has features that physically protect your data and network bandwidth from unauthorized access. Designed for service providers, the router is meant to deliver large amounts of information to a diverse pool of clients. The U.S. government has certified this router as IPv6 ready.
