Headline | Security |
Key selling point | Access control list (ACL): supports powerful ACLs for both IPv4 and IPv6; ACLs are used for filtering traffic to prevent unauthorized users from accessing the network, or for controlling network traffic to save resources; rules can either deny or permit traffic to be forwarded; rules can be based on a Layer 2 header or a Layer 3 protocol header; rules can be set to operate on specific dates or times |
Key selling point | 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 |
Key selling point | All engines have separate control and service planes to avoid interference and to facilitate service continuity during an active/standby switchover. |
Key selling point | All line-cards and modules on the router are hot-swappable. |
Key selling point | Border Gateway Protocol 4 (BGP-4): Exterior Gateway Protocol (EGP) with path vector protocol uses TCP for enhanced reliability for the route discovery process, reduces bandwidth consumption by advertising only incremental updates, and supports extensive policies for increased flexibility, as well as scales to very large networks |
Key selling point | Comware network operating system is a proven, highly fault-tolerant and feature-rich operating system that operates across the Hewlett Packard Enterprise networking portfolio. |
Key selling point | Domain Name System (DNS): provides a distributed database that translates domain names and IP addresses, which simplifies network design; supports client and server |
Key selling point | Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP): simplifies the management of large IP networks |
Key selling point | Dynamic Virtual Private Network (DVPN): collects, maintains, and distributes dynamic public addresses through the VPN Address Management (VAM) protocol, making VPN establishment available between enterprise branches that use dynamic addresses to access the public network; compared to traditional VPN technologies, DVPN technology is more flexible and has richer features, such as NAT traversal of DVPN packets, AAA identity authentication, IPSec protection of data packets, and multiple VPN domains |
Key selling point | Group Domain Virtual Private Network (GDVPN): a tunnel-less VPN technology that allows for native end-to-end security for a full meshed network; suitable for an enterprise running encryption over a private Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS)/IP-based core network, as well as to encrypt multicast traffic |
Key selling point | Intermediate system to intermediate system (IS-IS): Interior Gateway Protocol (IGP) uses path vector protocol, which is defined by the ISO organization for IS-IS routing and extended by IETF RFC 1195 to operate in both TCP/IP and the OSI reference model (Integrated IS-IS) |
Key selling point | IRF improves network availability. IRF allows for cross-chassis bundling of Ethernet and POS WAN links to implement load sharing and link backup. This mechanism enhances network redundancy, improves link utilization, removes single points of failure, and avoids service interruption. |
Key selling point | IRF increases scalability. The virtual device has doubled slots, ports, and performance. |
Key selling point | IRF simplifies management. Two routers work as one virtual device which simplifies device management and network topology management, improves operation and maintenance efficiency, and lowers maintenance costs. |
Key selling point | Offers advanced QoS features, including queue scheduling, congestion avoidance, congestion management, traffic policing, traffic shaping, priority marking, and hierarchical QoS. |
Key selling point | Open Shortest Path First (OSPF): Interior Gateway Protocol (IGP) uses link-state protocol for faster convergence; supports ECMP, NSSA, and MD5 authentication for increased security and graceful restart for faster failure recovery |
Key selling point | Provides all-round security protection features, including packet filtering, stateful firewall, ACL, attack detection and prevention, control plane rate limiting, uRPF, AAA, IPSec VPN, and Auto-discovery VPN. |
Key selling point | Routing Information Protocol (RIP): uses a distance vector algorithm with UDP packets for route determination; supports RIPv1 and RIPv2 routing; includes loop protection |
Key selling point | Stateful VPN firewall: - provides enhanced stateful packet inspection and filtering. - supports flexible security zones and virtual firewall containment. - delivers advanced VPN services with Triple DES (3DES) and Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) encryption at high performance and low latency. - offers Web content filtering. - allows for application prioritization and enhancement. |
Key selling point | Static IPv4 routing: provides simple, manually configured IPv4 routing |
Key selling point | The distributed design allows packet forwarding and complicated services such as NAT, GRE, NetStream, QoS, and IPsec to be processed on each line card independently, thus tremendously enhancing the service processing performance of the overall system as line cards are added. |
Key selling point | The HPE HSR6800 Router Series features advanced hardware architecture with multi-core CPUs and fully distributed routing and service engines for increased performance. |
Key selling point | The HPE HSR6800 Router Series includes the first service aggregation routers in the industry that support virtualization. |
Key selling point | The HPE HSR6800 Router Series supports all IPv4 and IPv6 routing protocols including RIP/RIPng, OSPF/OSPFv3, IS-IS/IS-ISv6, BGP/BGP4+, PIM/PIM6, MSDP, MBGP, and policy based routing delivering increased flexibility. |
Key selling point | The HPE HSR6800 Router Series uses Intelligent Resilient Fabric (IRF) to implement system virtualization. IRF enables two HSR6800 Routers to form and work as a single virtual device. |
Key selling point | The HSR6800 Router Series supports dual-MPUs, redundant power modules, and advanced distributed service architecture. |
Key selling point | The platform scales up to 420 Mpps forwarding performance, 120 Gbps IPsec performance, 2 Tbps switching capacity and delivers up to 64 10GbE ports, 384 GbE ports, 32 channelized OC-3 POS interfaces, 1512 E1 interfaces, and 2016 T1 interfaces. |
Key selling point | The series supports comprehensive high availability features that reduce service disruption including non-stop routing, graceful restart, stateful f
