Supported Routers

The following Cisco router models, configurations, and Meraki endpoints have been tested by the Cisco dCloud Team for use with dCloud. All router models tested with dCloud are listed, including routers recommended for dCloud use and other tested models. We recommend that the IOS versions on any user-provided router and integrated or external access points (APs) be the tested versions or newer. If you have problems using a newer IOS version, contact Cisco dCloud Support.

A router used with Cisco dCloud must support Cisco® Easy VPN to allow a dCloud session to connect to it automatically. At this time, routers running Cisco IOS XE do not support Easy VPN and cannot be used to connect endpoints to Cisco dCloud.
