Product Overview
Dell router overview
Dell routers provide high-performance routing to service providers, metro topologies, and Internet
Exchange Points, offering the following benefits:
•
10 Gbps Ethernet ports that process both inbound and outbound user packets
•
IPv4 routing with a very large hardware-based forwarding table and powerful hardware-based
Access Control List (ACL) and rate limiting functions
•
IPv6 routing including hardware-based forwarding and dual-stack support
•
High availability (redundancy) of the following hot-swappable critical router components:
-
Management modules
-
Fans
-
Power supplies
-
Switch fabric modules
•
A management (10BaseT or 100BaseTX or 1000BaseTX Ethernet) port for connectivity to your
existing management network
•
Increased Ternary Content Addressable Memory (TCAM) on the interface modules to process
routing protocols
•
Increased processor Random Access Memory (RAM) on management and interface modules
supports larger default Media Access Control (MAC) address tables and the IP route tables
Router applications
Dell routers are commonly deployed in the following situations:
•
Layer 2 metro networks
•
Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) Layer 3 Virtual Private Network (VPN) service provider
networks supporting multi-VRFs and RFC 2547bis
•
MPLS Layer 2 VPN service provider networks supporting both Virtual Private LAN Service
(VPLS) and Virtual Leased Line (VLL)
