Cisco® 4000 Family Integrated Services Routers (ISRs) form a Software Defined WAN platform that delivers the performance, security, and convergence capabilities that today’s branch offices need.
The Cisco 4000 Family Integrated Services Router (ISR) revolutionizes WAN communications in the enterprise branch. With new levels of built-in intelligent network capabilities and convergence, it specifically addresses the growing need for application-aware networking in distributed enterprise sites. These locations tend to have lean IT resources. But they often also have a growing need for direct communication with both private data centers and public clouds across diverse links, including Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS), VPNs and the Internet.
The Cisco 4000 Family Integrated Services Router (ISR) contains the following platforms:
ISR4461, 4451, 4431, 4351, 4331, 4331-DC, 4321, 4221 & 4221X.
Cisco 4000 Series Integrated Services Routers
Cisco 4000 Family ISRs provide you with Cisco® Catalyst Software Defined WAN (SD-WAN) software features and a converged branch infrastructure. Along with superior throughput, these capabilities form the building blocks of next-generation branch-office WAN solutions.
Cisco Catalyst Software Defined WAN
Cisco Catalyst SD-WAN is a set of intelligent software services that allow you to reliably and securely connect users, devices, and branch office locations across a diverse set of WAN transport links. Cisco Catalyst SD-WAN enabled routers like the ISR 4000 dynamically route traffic across the “best” link based on up-to-the-minute application and network conditions for great application experiences. You get tight control over application performance, bandwidth usage, data privacy, and availability of your WAN links - control that you need as your branches conduct greater volumes of mission-critical business.
Cisco converged branch infrastructure
The Cisco 4000 Series ISRs consolidate many must-have IT functions, including network, compute, and storage resources. The high-performance, integrated routers run multiple concurrent services, including encryption, traffic management, and WAN optimization, without slowing your data throughput. And you can activate new services on demand through a simple licensing change.
Cisco intent based networking and Digital Network Architecture (Cisco DNA)
The last few years has seen a rapid transformation and adoption of digital technologies. This puts pressure on the on the network teams supporting this changing infrastructure - especially when provisioning, managing, monitoring and troubleshooting these diverse devices. Additionally, innovations such as Cisco Catalyst SD-WAN, Network Function Virtualization (NFV), Open APIs and Cloud Management show great promise in transforming IT networks. This transformation raises further questions and challenges for the IT teams.
The Cisco Digital Network Architecture (Cisco DNA) is an open, extensible, software-driven architecture that provides for faster innovation, helping to generate deeper insights, and deliver exceptional experiences across many different applications. Cisco DNA relies on intent-based networking, a revolutionary approach in networking that helps organizations automate, simplify, and secure the network.
The intent-based Cisco DNA network is:
● Informed by Context: Interprets every byte of data that flows across it, resulting in better security, more customized experiences, and faster operations.
● Powered by Intent: Translates your intent into the right network configuration, making it possible to manage and provision multiple devices and things in minutes.
● Driven by Intuition: Continually learns from the massive amounts of data flowing through it and turns that data into actionable insight. Helps you solve issues before they become problems and learn from every incident.
Cisco Catalyst Center provides a centralized management dashboard across your entire network — the branch, campus, data center, and cloud. Rather than relying on box-by-box management, you can design, provision, and set policy end-to-end from the single Cisco Catalyst Center interface. This allows you to respond to organizational needs faster and to simplify day-to-day operations. Cisco Catalyst SD-WAN Analytics, Assurance and Cisco Network Data Platform (NDP) help you get the most from your network by continuously collecting and putting insights into action. Cisco DNA is open, extensible, and programmable at every layer. It integrates Cisco and third-party technology, open APIs, and a developer platform, to support a rich ecosystem of network-enabled applications.

Customers can now install virtualized applications on the ISR4000 routers through the Cisco® Enterprise NFV Infrastructure Software (NFVIS) – a virtualization infrastructure that integrates full VM lifecycle management, monitoring, device programmability, and service chaining in a single, installable package. For more information on Enterprise NFV and NFVIS, please refer to the link at https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/solutions/enterprise-networks/enterprise-network-functions-virtualization-nfv/index.html#~stickynav=2.
ISR4000 platforms support both DC and AC power supplies as options. Specifically, the ISR 4331 has two separate product SKU’s – the ISR4331/K9 and the ISR4331-DC/K9 which support AC and DC power respectively, The ISR4400 can independently support an AC or a DC power supply on the same chassis. While the 4300 supports between 24V and 60Vdc, the 4400 supports between 48V and 60Vdc. The 4331 provides for up to 250W of power rating while the 4400 provides up to 437W. ISR4461 also supports dual 650W DC reverse-air power supplies which are included in the NEBS installation kit.
It is important to note that when DC power supplies are installed on the router, PoE based modules may not be used.
More details about the DC power supplies and its capabilities can be found at the below url https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/routers/access/4400/hardware/installation/guide4400-4300/C4400_isr/FRUs_Modules.html#49534.
Product Performance and Scalability
The Cisco 4000 Family is built on a multicore CPU architecture. It runs modular Cisco IOS XE Software, which allows the platform to use to full advantage a distributed multicore architecture. The architecture of the Cisco 4000 separates control- and data-plane operations and integrates an industry-first services plane. This design delivers full-featured integrated services up to Layer 7 at high performance with the ability to deliver application-aware network services while maintaining a stable platform and a high level of performance during periods of heavy network traffic.
The ISR 4000 consists of 3 series of Routers – the ISR 4400 series, the 4300 series and ISR 4200 series whose performance levels are represented by the chart below.
ISR 4000 performance levels by series
ISR 4000 Interfaces and Modules Support
The Cisco 4000 Series Integrated Services Routers (ISRs) are modular routers with LAN and WAN connectivity. The routers provide for Network Interface Module (NIM) slots and enhanced Service Module (SM-X) slots offering a rich set of modules, such as LAN, WAN and wireless interfaces plus a range of compute engines for embedded services.
For the complete list of supported modules on the ISR4000 Series refer to the Interfaces and Modules sheet at https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/routers/4000-series-integrated-services-routers-isr/relevant-interfaces-and-modules.html.
Cisco Catalyst SD-WAN with the ISR4000 Series
The ISR 4000 series is optimized for Cisco Catalyst SD-WAN. For enterprises this means that business critical applications run faster, with more reliability and reduced Operational Expenditure (OpEx). Cisco Catalyst SD-WAN achieves this by giving all branches and data centers the ability to monitor, control, move and report on streams of application data, such as specific web (HTTP) traffic for example. The ISR 4000 series has deep packet inspection capability and can accurately identify and control thousands of different applications including custom in-house enterprise applications.
The benefits are immense:
1. Business-critical applications no longer have to contend each other or with traffic that should be served on best effort basis.
2. The Enterprise network becomes more reliable because multiple paths can be used.
3. Costs are greatly reduced because dual MPLS links can be replaced with a mix of MPLS and Internet.
4. The time to bring up new remote sites is dramatically reduced because Catalyst SD-WAN supports rapidly deployed DSL and 3G/4G LTE connections as easily as MPLS.
5. Security is assured across these connections using a zero-touch secure VPN technology used by governments and finance organizations worldwide.
From a platform perspective, the ISR 4000 series has
1. Separated control and data planes for Denial of Service (DoS) attack prevention and Intrusion Prevention System (IPS) and firewall capability built-in.
2. SaaS applications can have content locally cached. The caching is automatic and peers directly with Akamai technology to obtain intelligence.
3. Application performance speed is greatly increased using in-built application acceleration technology that can locally cache at a byte-level.
Cisco Catalyst SD-WAN implementation on the ISR4000 is managed at the end device either from the Cloud, or On-Premise, through ascending levels of Cisco DNA throughput-based subscription licenses. Cisco DNA Essentials and Advantage subscription licenses enable all customers to seamlessly transition between On-Premise and Cloud management as needed. The Cisco DNA subscription license tiers are structured to support the growth in business needs and simplify the journey to intent-based networking for the WAN.
For more information on Cisco DNA Subscriptions for SD-WAN and Routing, please refer to https://www.cisco.com/site/us/en/products/networking/wan-software/dna-subscription-wan/index.html.
Cisco Security Solutions for the ISR4000 Series
Cisco WAN MACsec
Cisco routers support a wide-range of ever enhancing security features on the ISR4000 routers. Cisco WAN MACsec is supported on the ISR4000 series routers using the NIM 2GE-CU-SFP module. WAN MACsec provides a line-rate network encryption solution over Layer 2 Ethernet transport services and can be leveraged outside campus networks, whether it be over Metro Ethernet transport or Data Center Interconnect (DCI) links. MACsec also secures WAN connections that are leveraging Ethernet as the link-layer media.
Cisco Secure Network Analytics
Cisco Secure Network Analytics provides enterprise-wide network visibility to detect and respond to threats in real- time. The solution continuously analyzes network activities to create a baseline of normal network behavior. It then uses this baseline, along with non–signature-based advanced analytics that include behavioral modeling and machine learning algorithms, as well as global threat intelligence to identify anomalies and detect and respond to threats in real- time. Secure Network Analytics can quickly and with high confidence detect threats such as Command-and-Control (C&C) attacks, ransomware, Distributed-Denial-of-Service (DDoS) attacks, illicit cryptomining, unknown malware, and insider threats. With an agentless solution, you get comprehensive threat monitoring across the entire network traffic, even if it’s encrypted. For more information and platform support refer to https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/collateral/security/stealthwatch/datasheet-c78-739398.html.
Cisco Snort IPS and Cisco Umbrella Branch
Cisco® Snort® IPS for Cisco 4000 Series Integrated Services Routers (ISRs) offers a lightweight threat defense solution that uses industry-recognized Snort open-source Intrusion Prevention System (IPS) technology. It is perfect for customers who are looking for a cost-effective solution that provides one box for both advanced routing capabilities and integrated threat defense security to help comply with regulatory requirements.
Cisco Umbrella Branch is a cloud-delivered security service for the Cisco Integrated Services Router (ISR). It provides the first layer of defense against threats at branch offices. And it offers the simplest, fastest way to protect every device on your branch network. You gain visibility and enforcement at the DNS layer, so you can block requests to malicious domains and IPs before a connection is ever made.
When enabling MACsec, you will need to procure the Security and HSEC licenses to stay within the limits of federal export control regulations. When customers wish to enable Cisco Secure Network Analytics, the Security (SEC) license needs to be enabled. Enabling Snort needs a Security (SEC) license and a signature subscription license. Enabling Cisco Umbrella Branch needs an Umbrella Branch license and a subscription license.
Reducing Operational Costs using Cisco ISR
Support for Data Modelling
Enterprises and Service Providers wish to drive down the operational cost (opex) of their networks and increase the agility and speed with which they deliver new services furthered by investments in Software Defined Networking (SDN) and Network Function Virtualization (NFV). Cisco routers provide support for Netconf and YANG data-modelling with increasing model coverage in successive releases.
Software Maintenance Upgrades (SMU)
The ISR4000 routers now support Software Maintenance Upgrades (SMU)[7]. An SMU is a package that can be installed on a system to provide a patch fix or security resolution to a released image, is provided on a per release and per component basis, and is specific to the platform. An SMU is an independent and self-sufficient package and does not have any prerequisites or dependencies. Please refer to https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/ios-xml/ios/config-mgmt/configuration/xe-16-6/config-mgmt-xe-16-6-book/cm-smu.html for additional details.
Network Plug and Play
Network Plug and Play helps automate the onboarding of new devices on your network by applying configuration settings without manual intervention. With the ease of a centrally managed controller, it reduces the time a new device takes to join your network and become functional. For more information on Plug and Play (PnP), please refer to https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/solutions/Enterprise/Plug-and-Play/release/notes/pnp-connect-release-notes.html.
Cisco IOS Software Licensing and Packaging
Universal IOS XE and XE-SDWAN Image
A single Cisco IOS XE Universal image encompassing all functions is delivered with the platform. Advanced features can be enabled by simply activating a software license on the Universal image. Technology packages and feature licenses, enabled through right-to-use licenses, simplify software delivery and decrease the operational costs of deploying new features.
Starting with Cisco IOS XE Release 17.2.1, you can install and deploy both Routing (Autonomous Mode) and Catalyst SD-WAN (Controller Mode) functionality on ISR4000 platforms. This feature supports the use of a single universalk9 image to deploy Cisco IOS XE in dual persona modes on all supported devices. This universalk9 image supports booting up in two modes - Autonomous mode (for regular IOS XE Routing features) and controlled mode (for Catalyst SD-WAN features).
When ordering an ISR router with a Cisco DNA Subscription, a customer may choose either Autonomous Mode (AUTO) for regular routing and Controller mode (CTRL) for Catalyst SD-WAN deployments. A license in Autonomous Mode is perpetual and doesn’t require renewal, whereas a license in Controller Mode is term based and does require renewal upon expiry of the purchased license term. Refer to the Cisco DNA Ordering Guide at https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/collateral/software/dna-subscription-routing/guide-c07-740642.html.
Also present is the High Security (HSEC) license, which removes the curtailment enforced by the U.S. government export restrictions on the encrypted tunnel count and encrypted throughput. The HSEC license is a separately required license for a feature to have full crypto functionality. Without the HSEC license, only 1000 secure tunnels and 250[8] Mbps of crypto bandwidth would be available.
For additional information and details about Cisco IOS Software licensing and packaging on the Cisco 4000 Family, please visit https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/routers/access/4400/software/configuration/guide/isr4400swcfg.pdf.
IOS-XE provides support for both perpetual and subscription licensing. Subscription Licensing with support for Cisco Catalyst Center is offered using Cisco DNA Essentials or Cisco DNA Advantage. Please refer to the Cisco DNA Ordering Guide at: https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/collateral/software/dna-subscription-routing/guide-c07-740642.html.
Software Defined Networks may be provisioned through the two major licenses on the Cisco 4000 Family; these licenses can be activated through the Cisco software activation process identified at https://www.cisco.com/go/sa using the Cisco Catalyst Center or through the Cisco Catalyst SD-WAN Manager management portal. The XE-SDWAN image provides for its own licensing schema through Cisco DNA Licensing.
For more information on Cisco DNA Subscriptions for SD-WAN and Routing, please refer to https://www.cisco.com/site/us/en/products/networking/wan-software/dna-subscription-wan/index.html.
Smart Software Licensing Support for IOS-XE
IOS-XE supports Smart Licensing beginning with image version 16.6.1 and Device Led Conversion with image version 16.9.1. Cisco Smart Licensing is a flexible licensing model that provides you with an easier, faster, and more consistent way to purchase and manage software across the Cisco portfolio and across your organization. And it is secure – you control what users can access. With Smart Licensing you get:
● Easy Activation: Smart Licensing establishes a pool of software licenses that can be used across the entire organization—no more PAKs (Product Activation Keys).
● Unified Management: My Cisco Entitlements (MCE) provides a complete view into all of your Cisco products and services in an easy-to-use portal, so you always know what you have and what you are using.
● License Flexibility: Your software is not node-locked to your hardware, so you can easily use and transfer licenses as needed.
To use Smart Licensing, you must first set up a Smart Account on Cisco Software Central (software.cisco.com). One or more Virtual Accounts maybe created under the Smart Account to enable the organization to logically segregate the purchased licenses. Device Led Conversion (DLC) allows the customer to convert all existing PAK and RTU licenses on the router into a Smart License.
