Managers or processor modules (Routing Engine, Supervisor) Cisco used in routers or modular switches to control the entire system and increase performance. Processor modules are produced for a specific series of routers or modular switches and chassis, or can also be combined with different platforms at the same time (for example. Catalyst 6500 Series and Cisco 7600 routers).
depending on the platform, control modules Cisco can support various services and services, such as quality of service (QoS), network management, security features, dynamic and static routing, switching at different levels modules OSI And much more. Majority control modules Cisco (Supervisor Engine) have built-in ports SFP+, QSFP+ and etc. Many platforms support the installation of a redundant processor module Cisco, to increase the fault tolerance of the entire routing system.
