| Product Features |
- Excellent forwarding performance
Provides forwarding performance up to 5 Mpps (3.3 Gbps); meets the bandwidth-intensive application demands of enterprise businesses.
- Powerful security capacity
Includes an embedded hardware encryption accelerator to improve encryption performance; IPSec encryption throughtput can be up to 3.3 Gbps with a maximum of 4,000 IPSec VPN tunnels.
- Advanced hardware architecture
Provides multi-core processors, Gigabit switching, and PCIE bus; external RPS or dual internal power supplies, and internal and external CF cards are offered.
- Field-programmable gate array (FPGA)
Improves the bandwidth of SIC module slots from 100 Mbps to 1000 Mbps, and improves uplink performance from 1 Gbps to 10 Gbps.
- Multiple WAN interfaces
Provides traditional links with E1, T1, serial, and ISDN; high-density Ethernet access with WAN Gigabit Ethernet and LAN 4- and 9-port Fast Ethernet.
- USB interface
Uses USB memory disk to download and upload configuration/OS image files; supports an external USB 3G/4G modem for a 3G/4G WAN uplink.
- Flexible port selection
Provides a combination of fiber and copper interface modules, 100/1000Base-X supported, and 10/100/1000Base-T auto-speed detection plus auto duplex and MDI/MDI-X.
- Spanning tree protocol (STP)
Supports standard IEEE 802.1D STP, IEEE 802.1w rapid spanning tree protocol (RSTP) for faster convergence, and IEEE 802.1s multiple spanning tree protocol (MSTP).
- Routing information protocol (RIP)
Uses a distance vector algorithm with UDP packets for route determination; supports RIPv1 and RIPv2 routing; includes loop protection.
- Border gateway protocol 4 (BGP-4)
Delivers an implementation of the exterior gateway protocol (EGP) utilizing path vectors; uses TCP for enhanced reliability for the route discovery process.
- Intermediate system to intermediate system (IS-IS)
Uses a path vector interior gateway protocol (IGP), which is defined by the ISO organization for IS-IS routing and extended by IETF RFC 1195 to operate in both TCP/IP and the OSI reference model.
- IPv6 tunneling
IPv6 tunneling is an important element for the transition from IPv4 to IPv6; allows IPv6 packets to traverse IPv4-only networks by encapsulating the IPv6 packet into a standard IPv4 packet.
- Multiprotocol label switching (MPLS)
Uses BGP to advertise routes across label switched paths (LSPs), but uses simple labels to forward packets from any Layer 2 or Layer 3 protocol, which reduces complexity and increases performance.
- Routing policy
Allows custom filters for increased performance and security; supports ACLs, IP prefix, AS paths, community lists, and aggregate policies.
- Dynamic host configuration protocol (DHCP)
Simplifies the management of large IP networks and supports client and server; DHCP relay enables DHCP operation across subnets.
- Hierarchical quality of service (HQoS)/nested QoS
Manages traffic uniformly, and hierarchically schedules traffic by user, network service, and application; provides more granular traffic control and quality assurance services than traditional QoS.
- Access control list (ACL)
Supports powerful ACLs for both IPv4 and IPv6; ACLs are used for filtering traffic to prevent unauthorized users from accessing the network, or for controlling network traffic to save resources.
- Unicast reverse path forwarding (URPF)
Allows normal packets to be forwarded correctly, but discards the attaching packet due to lack of reverse path route or incorrect inbound interface; prevents source spoofing and distributed attacks.
- Secure shell (SSHv2)
Uses external servers to securely login into a remote device; with authentication and encryption, it protects against IP spoofing and plain text password interception; increases the security of SFTP transfers.
- Internet group management protocol (IGMP)
Utilizes any-source multicast (ASM) or source-specific multicast (SSM) to manage IPv4 multicast networks; supports IGMPv1, v2, and v3.
- Protocol independent Multicast (PIM)
Defines modes of Internet IPv4 and IPv6 multicasting to allow one-to-many and many-to-many transmission of information; supports PIM Dense Mode (DM), Sparse Mode (SM), and Source-Specific Mode (SSM).
- Embedded NetStream
Improves traffic distribution using powerful scheduling algorithms, including Layer 4 to 7 services; monitors the health status of servers and firewalls.
- SIP trunking
Delivers multiple concurrent calls on one link; the carrier authenticates only the link, rather than carrying each SIP call on the link.
- Virtual router redundancy protocol (VRRP)
Allows groups of two routers to dynamically back each other up to create highly available routed environments; supports VRRP load balancing.
- Bidirectional forwarding detection (BFD)
Detects quickly the failures of the bidirectional forwarding paths between two devices for upper-layer protocols such as routing protocols and MPLS.
- SNMPv1, v2, and v3
Provides complete support of SNMP; provide full support of industry-standard Management Information Base (MIB) plus private extensions; SNMPv3 supports increased security using encryption.
- Remote monitoring (RMON)
Uses standard SNMP to monitor essential network functions; supports events, alarm, history, and statistics group plus a private alarm extension group.
- FTP, TFTP, and SFTP support
Offers different mechanisms for configuration updates; FTP allows bidirectional transfers over a TCP/IP network; trivial FTP (TFTP) is a simpler method using User Datagram Protocol (UDP).
- Management interface control
Provides management access through modem port and terminal interface; provides access through terminal interface, telnet, or SSH.
- Network quality analyzer (NQA)
Analyzes network performance and service quality by sending test packets, and provides network performance and service quality parameters such as jitter, TCP, or FTP connection delays.
