Networking Solutions and the Cisco CGR 2010: Substation Automation Example
Substation automation promises to bring more automation and intelligence to the power grid network to address a
myriad of utility challenges. Utilities are focused on how to improve grid reliability, enhance network security to
meet regulatory requirements, and reduce operational expenses. The Cisco Connected Grid Router and Switch
offer utilities a rugged networking solution to enable reliable and secure two-way communication for substation
automation. Figure 2 shows a converged end-to-end IP network from the data center to the home. The CGR 2010
and the CGR 2520 are deployed in both transmission and distribution substations. Networking these points of
presence provides network operators with greater visibility into grid assets and helps identify, isolate, and restore
outages more efficiently.

Integrated Network Security
Cyber security is critical to the reliability of energy networks. Operators must help ensure data communications
used to operate energy infrastructure take priority and are not compromised by cyber attacks. Cisco has created a
full suite of security features designed to help ensure the integrity of grid communications.
The Cisco IOS Software Security technology package for the CGR 2010 offers a wide array of common security
features, such as advanced application inspection and control, threat protection, and encryption architectures for
enabling more scalable and manageable VPN networks. The CGR 2010 offers onboard hardware-based
encryption acceleration to provide greater IPSec throughput with less overhead for the route processor when
compared with software-based encryption solutions. The CGR 2010 offers a comprehensive and adaptable
security solution for energy networks that includes features such as:
● Secure connectivity: Secure collaborative communications with Group Encrypted Transport VPN,
Dynamic Multipoint VPN (DMVPN), or Enhanced Easy VPN
● Integrated threat control: Responding to sophisticated network attacks and threats, using Cisco IOS
Firewall, Cisco IOS Zone-Based Firewall, Cisco IOS Intrusion Prevention System (IPS), Cisco IOS Content
Filtering, and Flexible Packet Matching (FPM)
● Identity management: Intelligently protecting endpoints using technologies such as authentication,
authorization, and accounting (AAA) and public key infrastructure (PKI)
