Benefits
Future proof architecture
As the flagship of ZyXEL's MSAN product portfolio, the IES-6000 Series 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 Series is a high-capacity system that facilitates
telcos/ISPs 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 Series 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-5000/IES-5005 systems. The MSC1024G Management
Switch 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 MSC1224G Management Switch Card is
with two 10G and six 1G Ethernet uplinks to support even higher bandwidth requirement. Both
the new-generation MSC, MSC1024GB & MSC1224GB, share the same attributes of their
predecessors and are IPv6 hardware ready. 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; 72-port or 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 Series inherits all the Layer 2 and Layer 3 QoS, security and multicast functionalities
from the IES-5000/IES-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 option 82
sub-option 2 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.
