Overview
As part of Cisco Cloud connect portfolio, vEdge Cloud is a software router platform that supports an entire range of capabilities available on the physical vEdge router platforms. The vEdge Cloud router is offered as a virtual machine that can be deployed in the variety of private, public, and hybrid cloud computing environments. It is supported on all major hypervisor platforms.
Cisco vEdge Cloud router uses the Intel DPDK infrastructure to help ensure the most optimal performance on x86 platforms. The software is also capable of using the AES-NI encryption offload technology available on most Intel platforms. AES-NI offers optimized IP security (IPSec) performance when using AES encryption algorithms.
Deployment Use Cases The vEdge Cloud router targets the following main deployment use cases:
- Extending SD-WAN overlay into public cloud environments
- Virtualized WAN router
Highlights
- Industry leading virtualized SD-WAN router with a centralized provisioning and management tool capable of managing on premise and cloud deployments.
- Full-mesh IPSec (AES-256) capability offering seamless access between branch and cloud without the hassle of centralized key management/distribution.
- Capable of scaling from 10Mbps to 2Gbps of IPSec encrypted throughput

Amazon Machine Image (AMI)
An AMI is a virtual image that provides the information required to launch an instance. Amazon EC2 (Elastic Compute Cloud) instances are virtual servers on which you can run your applications and workloads, offering varying combinations of CPU, memory, storage, and networking resources. You can launch as many instances from as many different AMIs as you need.

Usage instructions
- Launch the vEdge cloud instance with the desired EC2 instance type and in a specific VPC instance. 2. For multi transport/wan scenario, use 3-4 network interfaces which can be configured as follows a) 1 network interface for transport/WAN. For internet transport this will be a public subnet. (add more if required) b) 1 network interface for in band management. This will be in a public subnet for ssh access. c) 1 network interface connected to EC2 hosts in the VPC. This will be a private subnet 3. You can use an existing ssh key pair for login or you may create a new one. For a new key pair ensure the private key file is downloaded. For further instructions refer to this document from AWS: http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/ec2-key-pairs.html 4. Launch the instance and wait for status to show running-config. 5. You can ssh into the instance with the ip assigned to the management interface. Click 'connect' on the instance to get details on how to ssh into the instance. The ssh username is 'admin'. C5 Instance type supported from 20.4.1 and above versions only.
