Benefits
Future Proof Architecture
As the flagship of ZyXEL's MSAN product portfolio, the IES-6000 is equipped with non-blocking
Gigabit backplane, failover-enabled Management Switch Cards (MSC), dual input power modules
and various high-port density multi-purpose line cards. With comprehensive IP-centric firmware
features, the IES-6000 is a high-capacity system that facilitates Telco/ISP to deliver high-quality
residential or business user services experience at competitive CAPEX/OPEX as well as satisfying its
current and future infrastructural requirements of reliability, flexibility and scalability.
Easy & Reused Logistics
The IES-6000 is a 12.5 U-height, 17-slot chassis-based multi-service access node capable of adopting
the same line cards as those for IES-5005/5000 systems. The MSC1024G control card with eight 1G
uplinks is designed to plug into slot 8 and/or slot 9, while the remaining slots are available for
equipping various line cards. The new MSC1224G control card is with two 10G and six 1G Ethernet
uplinks to support even larger bandwidth requirement. The variety of line cards are including 48-
port or 72-port ADSL2+ line cards that provide subscribers with asymmetric transmission bandwidth
up to 25 Mbps/2.4 Mbps; 48-port SHDSL.bis line cards with symmetric transmission bandwidth of
5.69 Mbps per port; 24-port and 48-port VDSL2 line cards that offer up profile 30a (100/100 Mbps)
high-speed connectivity per port over copper wires; 48-port VoIP line card that supports either
H.248 or SIP protocol, 20-port fiber-based Fast Ethernet line card that supports 100 Mbps
transmission speed per port and 8-port E1 IMA card.
Advanced Triple Play and Mass Deployment Functionality
The IES-6000 inherits all the Layer 2 and Layer 3 QoS, security and multicast functionalities from the
IES-5000/5005, while the following new features are added to satisfy the requirements for massive
field deployments: (1) IP bridge functionality that alleviates the Layer 2 access network deployment
restrictions resulted from MAC address table limitation and security attack issues; (2) ARP Proxy
which minimizes the ARP broadcast requests to all subscribers; (3) TACACS+ mechanism to support
remote authentication with TACACS+ servers; (4) VLAN-aware DHCP snooping which adds VLAN
information into DHCP snooping tables; (5) DHCP option82 sub-option2 for providing remote client
ID information to DHCP servers for flexible IP address assignment. (6) Cluster management feature
that is able to reduce the OPEX of multiple MSAN maintenance.
