What is the Real World Throughput of Cisco 1100 Series (C1100-8P and C1100-4P)?

I can't find the actual throughput of the above.

 

The data sheet says Crypto Performance is 250Mbps and 150Mbps respectively but not what the throughput is without any sort of Crypto. https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/collateral/routers/1000-series-integrated-services-routers-isr/datasheet-c78-739512.html

 

Has anyone had any experience with these devices, can they push 1Gbps? Or does anyone know where to find a whitepaper on them similar to this?

I would also like to know the answer to your question.. 

 

1) Routing performance without NAT/FW (I.e. No-NAT)

2) Routing performance with NAT

3) Routing performance with NAT/FW 

 

Can anyone out there help?

 

Thanks 

I have pushed 1GBps over FTTP using NAT (1 User test scenario) on a C1112-8P

Hey,

 

I found this online, hope it helps!

According to this...

https://blog.router-switch.com/2018/05/cisco-1000-series-isr-naming/

The HSEC license completely lifts the crypto shaper on the device. Do you know if this affects the throughput limit of non-encrypted traffic?

ie, does the non-encrypted throughputs above apply to a device with standard IP BASE?

 

 

With the IP Base and SEC license, encrypted traffic is shaped at 50 Mbps. A performance license is needed only for encrypted traffic of over 50 Mbps. There are currently two types of performance license; HSEC and IPsec Performance. The HSEC will disable the shaper completely, whereas the IPsec Performance will only lift up the bar on the shaper to 250 Mbps for the 8 LAN port SKUs, and to 150 Mbps for the 4 LAN port SKUs.

Does this answere your question?

Hi 

Generic traffic throughput is un-throttled, what is the maximum throughput ?

Where can I find more information on C1111-4P performance throughput ?

Since HSEC-K9 license support is also included in 16.7.1 and
later releases, the throughput limits refer to the “encrypted
traffic” rate Starting 16.7.1 Un-throttled crypto throughput limit is supported
Three levels of throughput supported with default being 50 Mbps
Un-throttled crypto throughput level implies the router is uncapped
from crypto perspective. Un-throttled throughput level CLI option
only visible when HSECK9 license is installed.

Also, adding supported routing features on IPB for ISE 1100 series.

The same question

Of possible interest, see table 4 in https://fastreroute.com/cisco-routers-performance/.  And, possibly: https://miercom.com/pdf/reports/180731E.pdf.

I too would expect same or better performance for non-crypto traffic.

I also suspect, possible reason Cisco doesn't tout this ISR's performance is for the reason noted in one of @Leo Laohoo's postings in: https://community.cisco.com/t5/switching/isr-1117-vs-4321/td-p/3416218
