Number of users supported on ISRs G2

[net buzz]

Hi!

This is a feature that I have researched for by looking at ISRs G2 data sheets and cisco.com website.

The number of users that can be supported or the recommended number of users per router chassis/model is not mentioned anywhere.

However this is mentioned in the Cisco 880 ISR data sheet.

Can someone please shed some light on the number of users that can be supported or the recommended number of users on Cisco 1900/2900/3900 ISRs?

Thanks,

Alvin

There is no recommended limit on ISR G2s, there's limit to the number of packets/second that can be switched through the router or some specific recommendations for advanced features - like firewall sessions/second, VPN sessions and things like that.

There are thus bandwidth recommendations not user recommendations.

Small ASA (5505) was limited to the number of users (10/50/unlimited) using license.

Hi!

I have checked the ISRs data sheets but the packet forwarding rate/switching rate is not available.

I have seen same on firewalls and switches datasheets.

Is there a resource when this information is mentioned?

Regards,

Alvin
