Performance
Wire speed Layer 2 switching, Layer 3 routing, and Layer 4 networking
are made possible by use of advanced ASICs to perform all switching,
routing, and policy enforcement in hardware. Concentration of services
in hardware allows the MRRS-262 routing to attain a significant
performance advantage over traditional routers at a fraction of
the cost. The non-blocking architecture of the MRRS-262 Compact
Routing switch ensures that no packets are lost - even under one
hundred percent traffic load with full policy enforcement.
Cascadable Routing Switches
Network topologies must be easily scaled up to support high bandwidth
applications and additional network services. Cascading is an economical
solution, because routing switches are added only when required,
in a "pay-as-you-grow" philosophy. Gigabit Ethernet ports
can be trunked to provide redundant cascading configurations. In
addition, the MRRS-262 can be configured with a mixture of cascading
and long reach connections. The MRRS-262 has a designated 10Gbps
port that can be used for non-blocking cascading, freeing Gigabit
Ethernet ports for other connections.
Flexibility
Switches must conform to the needs of the network, and not vice
versa. To allow flexibility in choosing various optical transceivers,
the MRRS-262 has two Small Form Pluggable modules (SFPs), and supports
CWDM, long-haul and Bi-directional (single fiber usage) transceivers.
In addition 2 10/100/1000 Ethernet fixed ports are available for
flexibility enhancement. The MRRS-262 is supplied in with 24 FE
auto-sensing ports. This versatility enables the customer to choose
the most suitable configuration while using a uniform platform and
feature set. This versatility enables use of a single MRRS-262 to
“close” rings and ears topologies.
Features
The T5 Compact Routing, with BiNOS on board, incorporates a large
number of features, such as IEEE 802.3ad link aggregation, IEEE
802.1Q VLAN, IEEE 802.1d Spanning Tree Algorithm, 802.1w Rapid Spanning
Tree Algorithm, 802.1s Multiple Spanning Tree Algorithm,
IEEE 802.3x Flow Control and Backpressure, Resilient Ports, IGMP,
Access Control Lists, bandwidth reservation, DiffServ and IEEE 802.1p
based Quality of Service with four priority queues.
Link Aggregation (802.3ad & LACP)
Link Aggregation helps broaden the bandwidth between different switches
dynamically. This helps circumvent possible network bottlenecks
by aggregating bandwidth on crucial network connections. Link Aggregation
also serves as a form of redundancy by ensuring that even if one
link fails, all network traffic will still be propagated over the
remaining links in the aggregation group.
Virtual LANs
Virtual LANs let network administrators improve bandwidth usage
and reduce administrative overhead by segmenting users into logical
groups. The MRRS-262 supports the up to 4K VLANs according to the
IEEE 802.1q standard, and auto-VLAN detection capabilities.
IGMP Multicast Support
Network multicasts reduce the amount of bandwidth needed for applications
like video-conferencing and online learning. Hardware support for
IGMP allows the MRRS-262 to forward only single copies of a transmission
to destination ports. The MRRS-262 has the unique ability to automatically
recognize IGMP join and leave messages, freeing network administrators
from the strain of multicast management.
Security and Policy Enforcement
RADIUS technology and Secure Telnet protect access, with port-based
MAC security and user-defined rules that determine how, where, and
when various network functions are performed. While many early implementations
focused on QoS across a number of network devices, the goal of policy-based
networking is to allow the management of any type and number of
policies across a network. BiNOS SSH server provides a more secure
connection by providing authenticated services.
Access Control Lists
The MRRS-262 Pro's wire speed Access Control Lists (ACLs) enable
the implementation of QoS, security, and marking for Differentiated
Services at DiffServ Code Points upon entry to the switch. ACLs
ensure that only authorized users have access to specific resources,
and block any unwarranted attempts to reach network resources. The
policies implemented in the ACLs are used to provision bit rates
by IP or application.
Quality of Service
Quality of Service is vital to ensure proper flow control and bandwidth
management in a network. Four priority queues allow the MRRS-262
routing to differentiate between time sensitive VoIP applications
and other network data transmissions. In addition to IEEE 802.1p
and Type of Service (ToS) support, the MRRS-262 also supports Differentiated
Services (Diffserv). Diffserv is used to specify and control network
traffic by class, so that certain types of traffic get precedence.
Diffserv avoids simple priority tagging and depends on a policy
to determine how to forward a given network transmission. One of
the MRRS-262 Routing’s more unique qualities is its ability
to provide adaptive bandwidth control. Thresholds can be set by
using Weighted Random Early Detection (WRED) to start segregating
TCP traffic when it surpasses a given threshold. This allows networks
a great amount of flexibility and the ability to avoid unnecessary
static bandwidth provisioning.
Routing and Multicast Routing
To improve network utilization, Layer 3 routers forward packets
toward their destination via adjacent networks. The information
used to forward packets is gathered by using special protocols,
such as Routing Information Protocol (RIP). Open Shortest Path First
(OSPF) and Border Gateway Protocol 4 (BGP4). Special network routing
hardware enables the MRRS-262 to perform MAC resolution, CRC checks,
and TTL updates at wire speed. When routing between VLANs, the MRRS-262
can replace 802.1q VLAN tags at wire speed. VRRP eliminates the
single point of failure inherent in static default routed environments.
The MRRS-262 supports Routing Multicasts features such as PIM (Protocol
Independent Multicast)
