MSR 20 SERIES MULTISERVICE ROUTERS
FULLY FEATURED ROUTING PLATFORM
Unlike competitive offerings, the MSR 20 Series comes
equipped with a complete routing and security suite, a robust
application set and all required operating memory, eliminating
the need for costly and inconvenient upgrades. Specifically,
the MSR 20 Series includes:
› Open, industry standards-based routing capabilities such
as: IP and IPX routing; Open Shortest Path First (OSPF), RIP
versions 1, 2 and 3; integrated intermediate system to
intermediate system (IS-IS); multicast routing; QoS; IEEE
802.1Q VLANs; and IGMP versions 1, 2 and 3;
› Built-in CompactFlash and USB slots that hold multiple
configuration files and operating systems for recovery
purposes; and,
› A full complement of memory, including up to 384 Mb of
SDRAM and 256 Mb of CompactFlash memory to support
dual software images.
SOPHISTICATED MANAGEMENT
Network infrastructure deployments and upgrades can be
costly and time-consuming for organizations with several
branch offices or remote locations. The MSR 20 Series offers
an intuitive, easy-to-use CLI function that can be securely
accessed locally or remotely for comprehensive configuration
and management, with additional features that provide an
extensive set of management capabilities.
For example, the MSR 20 Series is compatible with industry-
standard NetFlow, an efficient and powerful technique for
collecting IP traffic information, including information about
network users and applications, peak usage times and traffic
volumes. The MSR 20 Series is also fully manageable via the
3Com Enterprise Management Suite (EMS), a powerful
graphical application with advanced remote diagnostics and
network management capabilities. With capabilities such as
QoS, systems infrastructure and voice applications, EMS
ensures rapid deployments of IP telephony systems and
robust support of both the data and voice components of a
converged network.
