you can get information about this module at the following url

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/routers/ps274/products_data_sheet09186a0080091b8a.html

What it does is compressing data before sending them over your wan, therefore saving you a lot of BW.

Wire speed is not technology.

It's just a way to say that the module is so fast that you don't even see there is compression.

It will be transparent to the users.

Regards,

Gilles.

Hi Gilles,

Thanks for the link it helps me.

But i don't know how to use these interface.

Like in 3745 I have one VPN and AIM Compression Module.

How to see the stats of these and how to connect a circuit and use it.

Thanks for your reply.

If you have aim-vpn module this is something different.

This device will perform the encryption/decryption in hardware instead of the router to increase performance.

No specific configuration is required.

Just configure your vpn normally and the router will detect the aim-vpn and use it.
