Cisco Services Ready Engine 300 ISM - control processor

The Cisco Services Ready Engine (SRE) modules are router blades for the Cisco Integrated Services Routers Generation 2 that provide the capability to host Cisco, third-party, and custom applications. The modules have their own processors, storage, network interfaces, and memory that operate independently of the host router resources, helping to ensure maximum concurrent routing and application performance while reducing physical footprint, lowering power consumption, and simplifying IT administration at the branch office. You can provision applications on the module remotely at any time. This solution can help your organization to quickly deploy new branch-office applications on-demand, reduce the cost of operating branch-office infrastructure, and protect your IT investment in the branch office.

Cisco SRE offers the next-generation branch-office hosting infrastructure that combines networking, collaboration, compute and storage services, and centralized management into a cohesive system designed to reduce costs and improve operational efficiency at the branch office. It integrates all elements necessary to optimize branch-office IT infrastructure for delivery of applications from the datacenter and deployment of branch-office applications on-demand, and houses them under a single chassis - the Cisco Integrated Services Router Generation 2.
