Future development direction of routers

Whether it's a personalized router or a general-purpose router, which direction will it develop in the future? This is a concern. Heda Bing believes that in the future, routers will develop in three directions: 1. High-speed routing, such as 10g routers; 2. network services will become more and more complex in the future, in the future, routers will be able to support the rapid growth of comprehensive services. Third, IP networks are penetrating into various industries, with broad prospects for edge access routers.
"In the future, the forwarding performance of routers will be faster," said Xia Qing, Deputy Chief Engineer of Huawei data communication products. At present, broadband networks are moving from construction to application. The development of service bearer capacity is a direction for vrouters in the future. In terms of interfaces, the high end has 10 Gbit/s interfaces and WDM multiplexing interfaces, and the low end has multiple access methods such as ADSL ."
In view of the future development direction of the personalized router, ruijie network Wu Binbin believes that there will be more personalized router functions in the future, and will also be oriented towards modularization, so that users can choose between modules as needed. TP-Link su jianxun said in an interview: "in the future, personalized routers will enter ordinary homes like Modem, and their prices will become cheaper and more functions will increase, it will become a good manager."
Cisco believes that in the future, routers need to meet new user pragmatism, that is, to develop towards powerful functions, simple management, and investment protection.
D-Link believes that new router products will emerge in the future, and optical fiber and modularization will become the development direction. Because IP over Optical can eliminate expensive SONET and ATM devices and reduce the complexity of network management, vro is a good solution to simplify the IP backbone network. Enterprises will consider network upgrade in the future when networking, so modular products will become the mainstream in the market.
From the perspective of the application market, the industry market requires multi-functional products. Generally, the routing products with a single function can no longer meet the needs of industrial applications. Enterprise router providers must be tailored to the enterprise application environment, functional, secure, customized, and service-oriented products have become application trends. Similarly, in the SOHO market, with the popularization of network applications, application demands will gradually increase, and people will not be limited to purchasing a single product, integration with new technologies and applications will become a trend of product development. Products with rich functions and simple applications will be very popular.
