Introduction
Verizon Wireless Dynamic Mobile Network Routing is a network-based Mobile IP technology capable of providing
dynamic routing and support for mobile or stationary enterprise routers in primary wireless access or automatic
wireless backup configurations. It enables integration between wireless and wireline enterprise services (4G
Wireless WAN) by making use of the Mobile IPv4 NEtwork MObility (NeMo) protocol and without the need for end
to end overlay tunneling.
Dynamic Mobile Network Routing (DMNR) is part of the Verizon Wireless Mobile Private Network. DMNR is
compatible with the Cisco IOS Mobile IP Mobile Networks feature. Please note that not all Cisco-specific features
are supported by the DMNR service. DMNR makes use of the Collocated-Care-of-Address (CCOA) option and
supports IP subnet registration, routing and forwarding. DMNR does not support any other Cisco Mobile IP Mobile
Networks features such as "mobile networks multi-path" or "mobile networks multicast".
This configuration guide shows an example of using the Cisco Mobile IP Mobile Networks feature with Verizon
Wireless Dynamic Mobile Network Routing service to provide primary communications over Verizon Wireless Long
Term Evolution/evolved high-rate packet data (LTE/eHRPD) access and Mobile Private Networks (MPNs) between
an enterprise branch office and a data center connected to the Verizon Wireless Private IP Multiprotocol Label
Switching (MPLS)/VPN network.
There are three example configurations, for ISR G2 LTE eHWIC, ISR 4K LTE NIM, and 819. GRWIC and 899
configurations are similar to eHIWC and 819 respectively.
Notes
1.
Cisco Integrated Services Routers Generation 2 (ISR G2) and CGR routers with integrated 4G LTE cards are
supported (V or VZ SKUs, 1900, 2900, 3900, and CGR2010 Series with LTE GRWIC). Cisco 819 and 899
ISRs with embedded LTE are supported. Cisco ISR 4Ks (4321, 4331, 4351, 4431, 4451) with LTE NIM are
supported.
2.
The minimum Cisco IOS software release depends on the LTE modem firmware level (seen via IOS command
“show cell 0/x/0 hardware” for LTE eHWIC/NIM/GRWIC, “show cell 0 hardware” for 819/899).
a.
EHWIC-4G-LTE-V, C819G-4G-V-K9, GRWIC-4G-LTE-V: Firmware release 1.0.9.3 is no longer
recommended. It should be upgraded to firmware 3.5.10.6. IOS 15.2(4M2) should be used to
upgrade the firmware. Firmware 3.5.10.6 and install insructions are available at:

elease.html?i=!y&mdfid=284772061&softwareid=284285628&release=3.5.10.6&os=
b.
EHWIC-4G-LTE-V, C819G-4G-V-K9, GRWIC-4G-LTE-V: Firmware release 3.5.10.6 is the
recommended release: The IOS recommended release with LTE firmware 3.5.10.6 is IOS
15.5(2)T or later T release.
c.
EHWIC-4G-LTE-VZ, NIM-4G-LTE-VZ, 8x9 VZ models (XLTE models):
Firmware release 5.5.58.1 is the minimum release. The recommended IOS release is 15.5(2)T
or later T release for ISR 1900/2900/3900 series, and IOS XE 3.16 for ISR 4000 series.
