2.1 Characteristics
The OA58XX-NW routers are modular devices that combine router and switch functions in a single device. They
have been designed for a corporate environment, and include advanced security among their characteristics. The
OA58XX-NW routers incorporate encryption hardware.
The OA58XX-NW executes the ALU ESR-OS, which runs in all ALU router families and is characterized by a wide
variety of functionalities. It is especially designed to satisfy the access requirements to corporate data networks.
ESR-OS offers management capabilities, the possibility of implementing Quality of Service mechanisms (both at the
link layer and at the network layer) and security mechanisms, the potential to create Virtual Private Networks through
IPSec or L2TP, plus an extensive range of protocols and IP routing functionalities.
The OA58XX-NW router family can be expanded by means of a AIC card, allowing you to increase the range of in-
terfaces in the device.
This manual shows you how to install and connect these devices.

ponents and Power Supply
2.1.2 Hardware Monitoring
The only way to monitor the OA58XX-NW router family hardware is through the LEDs on the front panel. These in-
dicate the state of the hardware components, if there is connectivity, data flow, etc.
