The NetVanta 5305 is an access router
designed for cost-effective Internet access,
corporate Frame Relay, point-to-point
connectivity, and Virtual Private Networking
(VPN) for large-bandwidth applications
supporting up to 90Mbps of routing
performance.
Modular Hardware
Residing in a 3U high, 19” rackmountable
metal enclosure, the NetVanta 5305 is a single
platform that offers six interface slots and
dual 10/100Base-T Ethernet LAN ports for
true LAN segmentation or DMZ applications.
A single slot within the NetVanta 5305 will
house an Octal T1/E1, HSSI Wide Module,
or an Unchannelized T3.
Standard-based Protocols
The versatile hardware platform of the
NetVanta 5305 is further complemented
with the ADTRAN Operating System (AOS).
AOS allows for the support of static and
default routes, demand and policy-based
routing, and allows for fast, accurate network
convergence using routing protocols such
as BGP, OSPF, RIP, and PIM Sparce Mode for
multicast routing. In addition, AOS terminates
Frame Relay, Multilink Frame Relay, PPP,
Multilink PPP, PPPoE, PPPoA, RFC 1483,
and HDLC WAN protocols. Multihoming
is also available to provide redundant or
backup WAN links to multiple ISPs, guaran-
teeing a wide-area connection.
Security
For added security, AOS provides a powerful,
high performance stateful inspection firewall.
It will examine all incoming and outgoing
packets against the security policies estab-
lished by the IT manager. In addition, the
firewall can identify and protect against
common Denial of Service (DoS) attacks like
TCP syn flooding, IP spoofing, ICMP redirect,
ping-of-death, and IP reassembly problems.
In addition, with the AOS Enhanced Feature
Pack Upgrade, the NetVanta 5305 adds
the support for IPSec compliant VPN. The
NetVanta 5305 supports up to 2,000
simultaneous VPN tunnels, while supporting
encryption algorithms like DES, 3DES, and
AES. With this upgrade, the NetVanta 5305
is fully compatible with other IPSec VPN
equipped NetVanta products.
Quality of Service (QoS)
QoS is also supported for delay sensitive traffic
like VoIP or video. To prioritize mission critical
traffic and control network congestion, the
NetVanta 5305 uses Low Latency Queuing,
Weighted Fair Queuing (WFQ), Class-based
WFQ, and DiffServ marking to establish
priority of IP packets routed over the WAN.
VoIP Ready
In combination with the QoS features, a
specialized SIP Application Layer Gateway
(ALG) allows SIP traffic to traverse NAT-
enabled firewalls. For an enterprise network,
this interoperability allows IP PBXs, phones,
and other SIP-based devices to set up,
tear down, and pass voice and call control
messages seamlessly through the integral
NAT-enabled firewall.
Administration
AOS offers a standard Command Line Interface
(CLI) that mimics the widely adopted, industry
de facto standard. Using an already familiar
CLI virtually eliminates training costs associ-
ated with learning a new operating system
or costly industry certifications. The CLI also
allows for configuration scripts to be used,
saved, and downloaded for a quick and easy
recovery mechanism.
ADTRAN, the leader in WAN connectivity,
offers reliable equipment that increases
network performance, lowers cost, and
positions networks for the future. The
NetVanta 5305 is no exception. With this
kind of corporate backing and product
versatility, the NetVanta 5305 offers a low-
cost, feature-rich access routing platform
with the freedom for future expansion and
network growth. In addition, these products
are backed by an industry-leading warranty,
free firmware downloads, and world-class
24-hour technical support from ADTRAN.
