A-MSR30-40 Multi-ServiceRouter

Overview
HP MSR30 Series routers are a component of the HP FlexBranch solution, which is part of the HP FlexNetwork architecture. MSR30 Series routers are ideal for the branch and regional offices of medium to large enterprises that require high-performance integrated routing, switching, security, wireless, voice, and virtualized applications. With a rich set of modular WAN, LAN, and voice interface connectivity options in a single device, these routers help reduce operating and capital costs, and reduce complexity by enabling remote users in branch locations to securely and reliably access enterprise applications and corporate resources.

Features
Quality of Service (QoS)

• Traffic policing: supports Committed Access Rate (CAR) and line rate


Management

• Management interface control: provides management access through modem port and terminal interface; provides access through terminal interface, telnet, or SSH


Connectivity

• High-density port connectivity: provides up to 10 interface module slots and up to 90 Fast Ethernet ports


Performance

• Excellent forwarding performance: provides forwarding performance from 220 Kpps to 360 Kpps; meets current and future bandwidth-intensive application demands of enterprise businesses


Resiliency and high availability

• Backup Center: acts as a part of the management and backup function to provide backup for device interfaces; delivers reliability by switching traffic over to a backup interface when the primary one fails


Layer 2 switching

• Spanning Tree Protocol (STP): supports standard IEEE 802.1D STP, IEEE 802.1w Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP) for faster convergence, and IEEE 802.1s Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol (MSTP)


Layer 3 services

• Address Resolution Protocol (ARP): determines the MAC address of another IP host in the same subnet; supports static ARPs; gratuitous ARP allows detection of duplicate IP addresses; proxy ARP allows normal ARP operation between subnets or when subnets are separated by a Layer 2 network
