Frequently
Asked Questions (FAQs)

Is it possible to upgrade the Cisco 116X series functionality after purchasing them?

Yes, as the Cisco Catalyst 116X ISRs supports pay-as-you-grow model, users can add PoE/PoE+ capabilities, integrate cellular modules (including 5G), upgrade memory (up to 8GB DRAM), and increase storage (up to 8GB flash) according to the evolving requirements. This flexibility makes the Cisco ISR 1161 series ideal for growing businesses that need to adapt their networking hardware over time without replacing the core unit.

What are the available management options for Cisco C1161 series?

The router supports a number of management technologies according to the Cisco 1161 specifications, including WebUI for local management without the need for a CLI, Cisco vManage for SD-WAN installations (both cloud and on-premises), and DNA Centre for conventional IOS XE deployments. These Cisco 116X specifications allow IT administrators to easily configure, monitor, and maintain network health with ease and precision from anywhere.

What features are supported in terms of security?

The Cisco 1161 features include an Enterprise Firewall, IPS/IDS, Advanced Malware Protection, URL filtering, and integrates with Cisco Umbrella for DNS-layer security, secure web gateway, cloud access security broker, and interactive threat intelligence. These advanced security capabilities offer multi-layered protection that helps prevent, detect, and respond to a wide range of cyber threats, optimizing Cisco 1161 performance.

What is the earliest software version that Cisco 116X ISRs supports?

The minimum version that is supported is Cisco IOS XE 16.11.1. Both SD-WAN and conventional IOS XE software solutions are supported by the router for a variety of deployment scenarios. This compatibility ensures easy integration of the Cisco 116X ISR router setup into existing Cisco environments enabling faster access to the latest features and security updates.

Can voice applications be used with the Cisco 116X routers?

Yes, the router offers business continuity through Cisco Unified Survivable Remote Site Telephony (SRST) in the event of WAN failures and supports Voice over IP through Cisco Unified Border Element (CUBE). This guarantees uninterrupted connectivity even during network disruptions, making it suitable for voice-enabled branch offices and remote setups.

Does the router support wireless connectivity out of the box?

Although wireless communication is not supported by default on the basic model, users can add this functionality by installing optional 5G SA/NSA modules. These modules support dual-carrier aggregation and next-generation cellular technologies that allow for fast and reliable wireless wide area network access. Cisco 116X PoE support also reduces cable clutter significantly. For more setup and usage details, refer to Cisco 1161 installation guide and Cisco 116X ISR router manual.
