IpLink 2884/2888 Getting Started Guide

1 • General information

Features and Beneﬁts

The IpLink 2884/2888 series consists of several models (table 2). They differ in the number of T1/E1 ports

and supported features. All models come equipped with two Gigabit 10/100/1000Base-T Ethernet ports.

Model 2884 Features

•

2/4 port Channelized T1/E1

--Support up to 124 PPP sessions with up to 4 channelized T1/E1 ports.

•

ML-PPP Expands Bandwidth

--Bind any number of channels or T1/E1 ports to create up to an 8Mbps

WAN link.

•

Dual Gigabit Ethernet Ports

--With Dual 10/100/1000, auto-MDI ports easily connect to any LAN infra-

structure.

•Per Flow QoS--Trafﬁc rates are set through ACLs that shape and police VLAN and IP trafﬁc.

•Stateful Firewall Inspection--Stateful ﬁrewall inspection is accomplished through ACLs that ﬁlter by source

and destination IP address, IP port and protocol.

•Layer 2/3 Trafﬁc Filtering--Assign an ACL to any interface and ﬁlter an IP port, VLAN ID or priority bits,

and MAC addresses.

•VLAN Tagging--VLAN tagging and processing is conﬁgurable on any T1/E1 channel or Ethernet port.

•Easy Management--Easily manage the 2884 router via an HTTP/web interface, a CLI accessible via the

VT100 console or through Telnet/SSH, via SNMP, or via CORBA.

Model 2888 Features

•2/4-port T1/E1 Inverse Mux--Using ML-PPP bond from 2-4 T1/E1 ports to create a high bandwidth

WAN link over TDM.

•ML-PPP Expands Bandwidth--Bind any number of channels or T1/E1 ports to create up to an 8Mbps

WAN link.

•Dual Gigabit Ethernet Ports--With Dual 10/100/1000, auto-MDI ports easily connect to any LAN infra-

structure.

•End-to-end QoS--Inspect, set and preserve VLAN priority to effect end-to-end QoS for trafﬁc ﬂowing

through the Mux.

•VLAN Trunk Extension--Tag untagged trafﬁc, preserve VLAN QoS, or simply transparently forward

VLAN trafﬁc.

•VLAN Tagging--VLAN tagging and processing is conﬁgurable on any T1/E1 channel or Ethernet port.
