Cisco 8400 series route switch features

Cisco, as a leader in the routing industry, is still very advanced in technology and has continuously emerged in new products. Currently, the 8400 series of routing switches provide the backbone network functions required for transmission. If you are an Enterprise Information System expert, you will understand that it is a severe challenge to provide high-quality voice, data, and multimedia services to enterprises while controlling costs. Today, Cisco's next-generation Wan solution connects all your enterprise sites to economically and effectively support key business applications.

The Cisco IGX 8400 series wide-area Routing Switch provides the backbone network required for the transmission of current enterprise data, voice, fax and video applications. The IGX8400 series are now available with 8-slot IGX8400, 16-slot IGX8420, and 32-slot IGX8430. They provide maximum flexibility and can meet the wide range of enterprise needs. The IGX8400 series routing switches are fully integrated with other Cisco WAN switches, access, and CPE products, providing an end-to-end network solution to achieve the highest efficiency and reduce costs. As a pioneer in Internet and IP network infrastructure, a leading company in the fields of ATM, frame relay, communication information management, and Quality of Service (QoS), Cisco is the only company capable of building an intelligent multi-service network, it gives enterprises great flexibility to adapt to the changing business and needs.

Core of Cisco IGX 8400 series Enterprise Wide Area Network

The efficient bandwidth utilization, Intelligent QoS Management, and telecom-level reliability make IGX 8400 series route switches ideal for different enterprises. I8GX 8400 series route switches can be used at the WAN core to merge multiple networks, add functions, simplify management, and reduce costs. The IGX 8400 series provides the highest bandwidth efficiency in the industry. Intelligent QoS and bandwidth management ensure that all your applications can obtain the quality of service they need. IGX also helps you expand communication information management and automated configuration commands to vrouters to save time and improve performance. The connection to public services is also the same, which can reduce the cost of leased lines and make full use of WAN links.

Merge networks on a powerful multi-service backbone network

One of the best ways to reduce bandwidth, management, and make full use of costs is to transfer data, voice, fax, and video information to a single network. The IGX 8400 series enables you to achieve this. The IGX 8400 route switch combines multiple types of information using interfaces that can transmit ATM, frame relay, synchronous and asynchronous traditional data, TDM, Internet, video and voice communication information, it is transmitted through a reliable backbone network. Advanced communication information management features ensure that each application can automatically obtain the required bandwidth and QoS.

The smart QoS Management feature suite ensures excellent performance and service quality.

Successful networked applications can win high satisfaction from end users. With the IGX 8400 series switch, you can ensure that each enterprise application of information can obtain excellent performance and QoS. This routing switch provides Intelligent QoS Management, which provides unparalleled bandwidth efficiency, ensures excellent performance for all users, and ensures the quality of service for all communication information types on the backbone network. The IGX 8400 route switch cost-effectively improves application performance. In most cases, enterprises can reduce the number of T1/E1 lines required for distributed applications and increase the type and quality of services they deliver. The Intelligent QoS management features of the IGX 8400 solution include:

Automatic route selection Management

The Cisco WAN Routing Switch uses a connection-oriented mechanism to provide network connectivity. These routing switches implement the connection license control (CAC) function for all types of connections on the network. The intelligence of the distributed network enables the CAC function to automatically select and re-route connections while ensuring the required QoS through the optimal path.

Dynamic Buffer Management

The Cisco Frame Relay and ATM service modules are equipped with a large number of buffers and a patented dynamic buffer management system that can allocate a buffer zone for each virtual circuit. The IGX 8400 route switch dynamically allocates a buffer to a single virtual circuit based on the communication traffic and service level protocol. A large number of available buffers solve the problem of node traffic explosion. The IGX 8400 ATM module provides 128,000 buffer cells, while the frame relay module provides 100,000 frame buffers.

Advanced service type management

Service Category management is very important to provide QoS required for all applications. Cisco Route switches include virtual circuit queuing, virtual circuit and rate scheduling, multi-service queuing, and egress queuing. This allows network managers to improve connections to meet the needs of special applications. The cell license rate is automatically adjusted based on whether the network is congested and where there is congestion. (Like communication through an Available Bit Rate (ABR) or ForeSight communication information management tool ).
