Currently, the popular routing protocols are RIP, OSPF, BGP and IS-IS, etc. In the coming IPv6 time, these routing protocols running based upon IPv4 should be extended to support IPv6 technology. ZTE ZXR10 5900 supports many IPv6 routing protocols, i.e. BGP4+, RIPng, OSPFv3, and IS-IS v6.
ZXR10 5900 5200 Product Description 3.18.1 Standard ACL Standard ACL only filters L3 IP source addresses. In practice, most ACLs only perform filtering based on IP source addresses, so that by putting such ACL put into the same category, it can allow network administrators to manage the network easily. For example, the network administrator only allows users in Vlan5, and a couple of managers on other network segments to access the Internet.
ZXR10 5900 5200 Product Description not necessary to know the IP address or a protocol other than IP is used, some network resources can be protected by filtering L2 MAC addresses and VLAN labels. For example, on the network segment in the R&D department, some computers are used for experiment, and they have no fixed IP addresses.
