Now let’s enable temporary throughput license on the router. License State: Active, Not in Use, EULA not accepted

Fortunately Cisco comes with a trial license on it, so we can do a temporary remediation to let the the current traffic utilise more bandwith space.īefore we start to activate the temporary license, let’s do some verification on the license status.Ĭurrent Throughput Level ISR4331# show platform hardware throughput level

you may see the throughput information summary on each ISR4000 series summary on below picture.Īt this instance we cannot increase the router throughput capacity unless we buy the throughput license. By default the router is running with 100Mbps of throughput and you can increase it to maximum of 300Mbps using throughput license. According to Cisco, the aggregate throughput handled by isr4331 is 100Mbps to 300Mbps. According to the graph above it even never reach 90Mbps, but when we verified it from the CLI it did.Īfter several tests on the network, we started to dig more information from Cisco documentation. When the congestion was occured, ping through the device will have average delay around 40-44ms. Our customer was sent the ping comparation when the traffic is about 40-60 Mbps, ping through the router will have average delay around 2-3ms. Another question that came in mind how it could be slow, what was the evidence so you can say it is slow. One of the key we have discovered was, slowness only happen for the traffic goes through the congested link (I said congested because our customer has 1Gbps link but it never reaches 100Mbps). Also there wasn’t any packet drop on the interface. We can see the throughput graph from below picture.Īs a basic troubleshooting process, we tried to identify the router CPU process, we saw that all processes were normal. This issue is quite interesting since I didn’t know that some of Cisco routers delivered with a throughput license feature.Īt the beginning, we was received a report from our client that they were experincing slow transfer data when the link reach 90 – 95Mbps. General Purpose Keys.This article is describes one of an issue we was faced on the past regarding Cisco router throughput capacity. The name for the keys will be: Ĭhoose the size of the key modulus in the range of 360 to 2048 for your RTR1(config)#ip domain-name mydomain.local Here is an example configuration: R1(config)#hostname RTR1

allow only SSH access on VTY lines using the transport input ssh command.

create a user in the local database using the username…secret command.

generate public and private keys using the crypto key generate rsa command.

configure the domain name using the ip domain-name command.

configure the router hostname using the hostname command.

Here are the steps to configure SSH on a Cisco router: SSH encrypts all data transmitted over a network. That is why it is recommended to use SSH (Secure Shell) to establish a secure session with a remote device. Telnet sends all data in clear-text, including usernames and passwords.
