Introduction
The Multiprotocol Router ARN product portfolio is being discontinued by Nortel*. The last
order date is July 31, 2007 with table below providing a list of discontinued codes. Any
Multiprotocol Router ARN order codes not listed in the table have also been discontinued.
The recommended replacement product for the Multiprotocol Router ARN is the Secure
Router 1001 or 1002. Please note that the Secure Router products are IP WAN routers and
do not support legacy multiprotocol features of the BayRS family, including the Multiprotocol
Router ARN. The Secure Router 1001 and 1002 provide superior price/performance with
advanced features in the areas of Routing, WAN, VPN, Security, Quality of Service and
Network Management.
Technical support for the Multiprotocol Router ARN products will continue through the
normal Nortel Technical Support Center. This notice will also serve as the final EOL notice
for the order codes identified below and no additional notice will be issued.
