and supported features. All models come equipped with two Gigabit 10/100/1000Base-T Ethernet ports.
Model 2884 Features
•
2/4 port Channelized T1/E1
--Support up to 124 PPP sessions with up to 4 channelized T1/E1 ports.
•
ML-PPP Expands Bandwidth
--Bind any number of channels or T1/E1 ports to create up to an 8Mbps
WAN link.
•
Dual Gigabit Ethernet Ports
--With Dual 10/100/1000, auto-MDI ports easily connect to any LAN infra-
structure.
•
Per Flow QoS-
-Traffic rates are set through ACLs that shape and police VLAN and IP traffic.
•
Stateful Firewall Inspection
--Stateful firewall inspection is accomplished through ACLs that filter by source
and destination IP address, IP port and protocol.
•
Layer 2/3 Traffic Filtering
--Assign an ACL to any interface and filter an IP port, VLAN ID or priority bits,
and MAC addresses.
•
VLAN Tagging
--VLAN tagging and processing is configurable on any T1/E1 channel or Ethernet port.
•
Easy Management

VT100 console or through Telnet/SSH, via SNMP, or via CORBA.
Model 2888 Features
•
2/4-port T1/E1 Inverse Mux
--Using ML-PPP bond from 2-4 T1/E1 ports to create a high bandwidth
WAN link over TDM.
•
ML-PPP Expands Bandwidth
--Bind any number of channels or T1/E1 ports to create up to an 8Mbps
WAN link.
•
Dual Gigabit Ethernet Ports
--With Dual 10/100/1000, auto-MDI ports easily connect to any LAN infra-
structure.
•
End-to-end QoS
--Inspect, set and preserve VLAN priority to effect end-to-end QoS for traffic flowing
through the Mux.
•
VLAN Trunk Extension
--Tag untagged traffic, preserve VLAN QoS, or simply transparently forward
VLAN traffic.
•
VLAN Tagging
--VLAN tagging and processing is configurable on any T1/E1 channel or Ethernet port.
