INTRODUCTION TO THE NETVANTA SOLUTION

The NetVanta 3000 Series is a line of modular access routers designed for cost-effective branch office
connectivity over frame relay or point-to-point (PPP) networks. These modular platforms offer a complete
solution for access routing and WAN connectivity in a single, compact package.
The Netvanta 3000 Series includes the NetVanta 3200, NetVanta 3205 (AC or DC powered), and NetVanta
3305. These main base units support a variety of interchangeable network interface modules (NIMs) and
dial backup interface modules (DIMs).
All three base units provide the same features, perform the same functions, and use the same interface
modules. The main differences in the base units include the following:
• Type of enclosure: NetVanta 3200 is a stand-alone unit in a plastic housing, while NetVanta 3205 and
NetVanta 3305 are housed in 1U high, rack-mountable metal enclosures.
• Number of card slots: NetVanta 3200 and NetVanta 3205 have one option card (module) slot, while
NetVanta 3305 has two.
• Number of Ethernet ports: NetVanta 3200 and NetVanta 3205 have one Ethernet port, while NetVanta
3305 has two.
The NIMs are plug-in modules that offer a variety of WAN connectivity. These modules provide 56K/64K
(DDS), SHDSL, T1/FT1, T1/FT1 with DSX-1, E1/FE1, E1/FE1 with G.703 Drop, and Serial (V.35/X.21)
interfaces. An analog modem or ISDN BRI (U Interface) DIM plugs on to the NIM, providing added dial
backup capability. The DIMs plug on to the NIM modules, and the NIMs slide into the rear of the base
unit. Refer to Installing Dial Backup and Network Interface Modules on page 41 for more details. In
addition, the optional VPN Accelerator Card plugs into a 32-bit PCI slot in the NetVanta 3305 and
following products to provide encryption/decryption and security acceleration services for the host
processor.
