Network group encryption

The 7705 SAR-Hm series of routers supports Network Group Encryption (NGE) for securing MPLS services and their related control plane. Supported NGE functions include the following:

  • SDP encryption of Layer 2 and Layer 3 service

  • VPRN encryption

  • router interface and PDN interface encryption of control plane and data plane Layer 3 packets

  • PW template encryption for BGP VPLS and BGP VPWS services

For information about router interface encryption commands, see the group-encryption command descriptions in the 7450 ESS, 7750 SR, 7950 XRS, and VSR Classic CLI Command Reference Guide.

For information about SDP, VPRN, and PW template encryption, see "NGE" in the 7450 ESS, 7750 SR, 7950 XRS, and VSR Services Overview Guide.
