Layer 3 and Other Features
AR700 Series routers provide efficient and cost-effective multiprotocol routing,
terminal serving and integrated network management over wide area
networks and LANs.The router can provide multiple functions simultaneously.
AR725 and AR745 models run different software releases from the AR750S
model, and the available functionality depends on the model and hardware
configuration:
■ Wide area networking via Point-to-Point Protocol.
■ Wide area networking via Frame Relay, and X.25, operating over
synchronous links up to 2Mb/s.
■ Basic Rate and Primary Rate access to Integrated Services Digital Network
(ISDN) services, with dial-on-demand and channel aggregation.
■ TCP/IP routing.
■ Novell® IPX routing.
■ DECnet™ routing (Phase IV+ and area).
■ AppleTalk routing.
■ Generic Routing Encapsulation (GRE) protocols.
■ IP multicast routing support, including Internet Group Management
Protocol (IGMP), Distance Vector Multicast Routing Protocol (DVMRP)
and Protocol Independent Multicast (PIM) Sparse and Dense Modes.
■ Ping Polling for determining device reachability and responding when a
device or link goes up or down.
■ IPv6 routing support, including stateless address autoconfiguration, RIPv6
and ICMPv6.
■ IPv6 multicast routing support, including Multicast Listener Discovery
(MLDv2) and Protocol Independent Multicast (PIM) Sparse and Dense
Modes.
■ OSPF, RIP (IP and Novell®), SAP (Novell®), EGP and BGP routing
protocols.
■ ARP, Proxy ARP and Inverse ARP address resolution protocols.
■ Sophisticated packet filtering.
■ Bridging.
■ Van Jacobson’s header compression, STAC LZS and Predictor compression,
and hardware-based AES (AR750S only) and DES encryption.
■ Create secure Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) across the Internet or any
other public or shared IP network, using AT-VPNet.
■ Tunnelling of synchronous (HDLC) data through TCP/IP.
■ Terminal serving using Telnet, with local host nicknames.
