Cisco CSR 1000V Use Cases in Amazon AWS Today, enterprises have two networks that are managed separately. They have applications in the enterprise‟s data center, which are in enterprise on-prem network, and they haveapplications in AWS cloud, which sit in enterprise‟s AWS cloud network. Enterprises would like to converge their on-prem network with their AWS cloud network and manage the entire network with a single network management tool. To converge the on-prem and AWS cloud network, enterprises need a virtual router in their AWS cloud. Many AWS customers have a Cisco router on their premises. They know Cisco management tools. They understand Cisco. Hence, most AWS customers prefer a Cisco virtual router to converge their on-prem network with their AWS cloud network. Cisco‟s Cloud Services Router (CSR1000V) is Cisco‟s first virtual IOS-XE router. With CSR1000V in their AWS cloud, customers can converge their on-prem network with their AWS cloud network. Below are some of the CSR1000V use cases for on-prem-cloud network convergence that are included in this test drive.

Wi th the CSR in enterprise‟s VPC in AWS cloud, branch-offices, campus sites, and remote workers can connect directly to enterprise‟s apps in the AWS cloud using the public Internet. This process reduces latency, eliminates expensive private WAN links, and enables route-based VPN topologies. You can choose from a wide variety of VPN technologies supported on the CSR 1000V, including point-to-point IPSecurity (IPsec), FlexVPN, Dynamic Multipoint VPN (DMVPN), and EasyVPN.

Cisco CSR1000V Overview
The Cisco Cloud Services Router 1000V (CSR 1000V) sets the standard for enterprise network
services and security in the Amazon Web Services (AWS) cloud. The Cisco CSR 1000V is based
on Cisco IOS-XE Software. CSR 1000V provides the familiar user interface of Cisco IOS XE
Software, and enables you to take advantage of your existing network management tools and
processes.
Cisco CSR 1000V Use Cases in Amazon AWS
Today, enterprises have two networks that are managed separately. They have applications in
the enterprise‟s data center, which are in enterprise on-prem network, and they haveapplications
in AWS cloud, which sit in enterprise‟s AWS cloud network. Enterprises would like to converge
their on-prem network with their AWS cloud network and manage the entire network with a
single network management tool. To converge the on-prem and AWS cloud network, enterprises
need a virtual router in their AWS cloud.
Many AWS customers have a Cisco router on their premises. They know Cisco management
tools. They understand Cisco. Hence, most AWS customers prefer a Cisco virtual router to
converge their on-prem network with their AWS cloud network. Cisco‟s Cloud Services Router
(CSR1000V) is Cisco‟s first virtual IOS-XE router.
With CSR1000V in their AWS cloud, customers can converge their on-prem network with their
AWS cloud network. Below are some of the CSR1000V use cases for on-prem-cloud network
convergence that are included in this test drive. More use cases will follow in subsequent test
drives:
Branch-Office, Campus, and Data Center VPN Aggregation: Without the CSR1000V,
branch-offices, campus sites, and remote workers have to connect through the
enterprise‟s data center in order to get to enterprise‟s apps in the AWS cloud. With the
CSR in enterprise‟s VPC in AWS cloud, branch-offices, campus sites, and remote
workers can connect directly to enterprise‟s apps in the AWS cloud using the public
Internet. This process reduces latency, eliminates expensive private WAN links, and
enables route-based VPN topologies. You can choose from a wide variety of VPN
technologies supported on the CSR 1000V, including point-to-point IPSecurity (IPsec),
