HPE JD663B Wired Router Networking

Overview
The HP MSR20 router series is a component of the FlexBranch architecture. It features a modular design that delivers unmatched flexibility for small branch offices and small to medium-sized businesses while reducing complexity, simplifying management, and increasing control. The MSR20 Series routers provide a full-featured, resilient routing platform, including IPv6 and MPLS, up to 180 Kpps forwarding capacity, and 100 Mbps encryption. These products offer lasting investment protection, and help reduce capital and operating expenses. These routers provide an agile, flexible network infrastructure that offers the ability to quickly adapt to changing business requirements while delivering integrated, concurrent services on a single, easy-to-manage platform.

Features

Quality of Service (QoS)
- Traffic policing: supports Committed Access Rate (CAR) and line rate

Management
- Industry-standard CLI with a hierarchical structure: reduces training time and expenses, and increases productivity in multivendor installations

Connectivity
- High-density port connectivity: provides up to 4 interface module slots and up to 18 Fast Ethernet ports

Performance
- Powerful encryption capacity: includes embedded hardware encryption accelerator to improve encryption performance

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: fully supports standard IEEE 802.1D Spanning Tree Protocol, IEEE 802.1w Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol for faster convergence, and IEEE 802.1s Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol

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
