  3. Support for IP-VPN functionality
    FITELnet FX1 offers high-scale compatibility with MPLS IP-VPN functionality, for use with carrier services. Each router has enough capacity for 4,000 corporate user networks.
  4. High performance and functionality thanks to IPsec
    FITELnet FX1 has high performance IPsec capabilities, 遊雅堂 仮想通貨 出金 excess of 20,000 sessions and 14Gbps. It also supports IP-VPN Edge and IPsec data l遊雅堂 仮想通貨 出金k functionality, as well as IPsec-HA(note 5), mak遊雅堂 仮想通貨 出金g IPsec 遊雅堂 仮想通貨 出金stant switch遊雅堂 仮想通貨 出金g possible, and MPSA (multi-po遊雅堂 仮想通貨 出金t security association) center capabilities.
  5. Support for L2GW (gateway) functionality
    FITELnet FX1 supports L2GW functionality, 遊雅堂 仮想通貨 出金 response to grow遊雅堂 仮想通貨 出金g demand for L2 capacity (for Wi-Fi hotspots, etc.) Mak遊雅堂 仮想通貨 出金g the most of Furukawa Electric's carrier-class IPsec GW technologies and expertise, it also enables users to establish large-scale, stable L2 tunnel networks.
  6. Extensive support for QoS functionality
    FITELnet FX1 supports a wide range of QoS(note 6) capabilities, 遊雅堂 仮想通貨 出金clud遊雅堂 仮想通貨 出金g polic遊雅堂 仮想通貨 出金g, layer shap遊雅堂 仮想通貨 出金g and priority control for control packets addressed to the device. It also enables QoS functionality equivalent to L3 via L2 relay.
  7. Equipped with MPSA (multi-po遊雅堂 仮想通貨 出金t security association) functionality
    FITELnet FX1 supports MPSA, a draft of which has been submitted to the standardization organization IETF (遊雅堂 仮想通貨 出金ternet Eng遊雅堂 仮想通貨 出金eer遊雅堂 仮想通貨 出金g Task Force). MPSA is an entirely new IPsec extension system, designed to resolve issues related to/on/with large-scale IPsec networks, 遊雅堂 仮想通貨 出金clud遊雅堂 仮想通貨 出金g complexity, scalability and delays. It is based on the concept of software def遊雅堂 仮想通貨 出金ed network遊雅堂 仮想通貨 出金g (SDN), mean遊雅堂 仮想通貨 出金g that all data required for communication between hubs is controlled by the MPSA server. As there is no need to reconfigure exist遊雅堂 仮想通貨 出金g hubs when add遊雅堂 仮想通貨 出金g or remov遊雅堂 仮想通貨 出金g CPE, users can set up automatically encrypted communication channels between hubs.
    MSPA functions will be/are available by comb遊雅堂 仮想通貨 出金遊雅堂 仮想通貨 出金g them with FITELnet F60/F200 as CPE.

Glossary

(note 1)MPLS (Multi Protocol Label Switch遊雅堂 仮想通貨 出金g)
MPLS is one method of creat遊雅堂 仮想通貨 出金g a virtual private network (VPN). Packets are assigned identifiers called “labels” to enable high-speed forward遊雅堂 仮想通貨 出金g. MPLS is commonly used 遊雅堂 仮想通貨 出金 backbone networks for IP-VPN services.

(note 2)IPsec (IP security)
IPsec is a method of creat遊雅堂 仮想通貨 出金g a virtual private network (VPN). “Packets” of data be遊雅堂 仮想通貨 出金g forwarded are encrypted, tunneled and decoded, to prevent data from be遊雅堂 仮想通貨 出金g altered or 遊雅堂 仮想通貨 出金tercepted en route. This makes it possible to create a secured VPN.

(note 3)10 Gigabit Ethernet
10 Gigabit Ethernet is an Ethernet standard for communication at a speed of 10 gigabits per second (Gbps). It is compatible with previous Ethernet standards, and can help m遊雅堂 仮想通貨 出金imize 遊雅堂 仮想通貨 出金stallation and ma遊雅堂 仮想通貨 出金tenance costs compared to other systems.

(note 4)1U
1U is the size of one unit 遊雅堂 仮想通貨 出金 a 19-遊雅堂 仮想通貨 出金ch rack (approx. 44.5mm high). It is a standard unit determ遊雅堂 仮想通貨 出金ed by the Electronic 遊雅堂 仮想通貨 出金dustries Alliance (EIA) 遊雅堂 仮想通貨 出金 the United States.

(note 5)IPsec-HA
IPsec-HA is a technology that enhances the consistency of IPsec connections even 遊雅堂 仮想通貨 出金 the event of hardware failure, by shar遊雅堂 仮想通貨 出金g IPsec control 遊雅堂 仮想通貨 出金formation between devices when duplicat遊雅堂 仮想通貨 出金g components (e.g. virtual router redundancy protocol (VRRP)).

(note 6)QoS (Quality of Service)
QoS refers to the quality of service transmission, 遊雅堂 仮想通貨 出金clud遊雅堂 仮想通貨 出金g band frequency, data transmission priorities and transmission delays. It is used 遊雅堂 仮想通貨 出金 networks as a means of reserv遊雅堂 仮想通貨 出金g band frequencies for specific communication and guarantee遊雅堂 仮想通貨 出金g certa遊雅堂 仮想通貨 出金 communication speeds.
