Great Reasons to Choose
the Passport 8000
Comprehensive
LAN/MAN Support
The Passport 8000 Routing Switch offers
a variety of LAN technologies including
10/100 Mbps and Gigabit Ethernet
connectivity. MAN technologies include
Packet over SONET, ATM, extended
Gigabit Ethernet, and CWDM.
Highly Redundant Solution
The Passport 8000 is redundant at
multiple layers. Physical redundancy is
accomplished with N+1 redundant power
supplies, hot swappable modules and dual
fan trays. Trunk level redundancy is
accomplished with Distributed Multi-
Link Trunking and Split Multi-Link
Trunking (SMLT). Routing redundancy
is accomplished with Virtual Routing
Redundancy Protocol (VRRP), and Equal
Cost Multi-Path Routing (ECMP).
Common Management
Platform
Nortel Networks Device Manager and
the command line interface commands
are shared across the entire Passport 8000
platform. The use of common applications
and monitoring tools dramatically
decreases the network administration
cost associated with configuring individual
devices.
