KEY BENEFITS

3COM
ADVANCED SECURITY AND CONTROL FEATURES
The 3Com Router 3000 DSL and Ethernet Family helps secure and safe-
guard sensitive information against unauthorized access. Security and
control features include AAA, RADIUS authentication, a stateful packet
inspection firewall, denial-of-service (DoS) blocking and Access Control
Lists (ACLs). L2TP and IPSec VPNs with 3DES and AES encryption
provide additional security over the WAN.
The embedded firewall includes support for ACLs, plus generic routing
encapsulation (GRE), network address translation (NAT), NAT traversal
and application layer gateways. Business applications are able to pass
easily through the firewall and across the VPN.
VOICE, DATA AND VIDEO CONVERGENCE SUPPORT
The routers deliver advanced QoS, including DiffServ support, for
effective traffic management on networks that run converged voice, data
and video applications. Utilizing IP differentiated services for applications
and ATM QoS for traffic and physical layer prioritization, the routers
are equipped to handle the most demanding multimedia networking,
helping to assure the level of service required for delay-sensitive traffic
and continuous business operation. The routers support both IEEE 802.1p
prioritization and IEEE 802.1Q VLANs.
RESILIENCE AND REDUNDANCY FOR MAXIMUM UPTIME
The routers are designed for high resiliency to meet stringent enterprise
uptime standards. To ensure continuous operation, they support ISDN
backup to primary WAN ports (models 3031, 3034, 3035 and 3041),
Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP) and Dial Control Center.
MANAGEMENT ACROSS THE ENTERPRISE
The routers can be managed using the optional 3Com Management Suite,
or using 3Com Router Manager, which is included with the optional
3Com Network Director software. These graphical applications provide
sophisticated remote diagnostic and management capabilities, including
bulk updating of remote router code and configuration backup, auto-trap
setup and monitoring, router system status and historical reporting.
An intuitive, easy-to-use CLI functionality can be accessed directly, or
remotely via Telnet, Secure Shell or Rlogin. Other SNMP management
applications may also be used. The Info Center diagnostic tool, available
through the CLI interface, helps spot problems and reports them for
quick remedial action.
ADVANTAGES FOR SERVICE PROVIDERS
The 3Com Router 3000 DSL and Ethernet Family offers service providers
simplicity and ease of use that lowers total cost of ownership and
expedites service delivery. QoS support gives customers the traffic
control needed for convergent applications, fulfilling service level
agreements. Remote management provides extensive administrative
and troubleshooting capabilities. And the routers equipped with ISDN
backup provide resiliency for customers requiring fail-safe connections.
WORLD-CLASS SERVICE, SUPPORT AND TRAINING
3Com routers are backed by 3Com and its authorized partners.
Professional customer service organizations offer assessment, installation,
management and maintenance support for network infrastructures.
Skilled personnel with experience in a variety of network environments
can assist 3Com customers through all phases of network planning,
implementation, troubleshooting and product training.
