Shown here is the maximum number of peers that can be connected to GR2000 through LAN, frame relay, or ATM network. The peer includes not only routers bu also terminals.

4.2.5.1Maximum Number of ARP Entries

In the LAN, frame relay, or ATM network, the hardware address corresponding to destination address of the packet is determined by the address resolution protoc such as ARP and InverseARP. Consequently, the maximum number of peers on t said network media is determined by the maximum number of ARP entries. See Table 4-31 for the maximum number of ARP entries for each GR2000 model.
