Huawei launches network-centric enterprise router ar G3

At present, the State is vigorously promoting the integration of the two, three networks, which can not be separated from it and CT fusion, and the PC era after the era of cloud computing is coming to us, it outlines the IT and CT fusion tide. Huawei Vice president, data Center and Media Network product line President Li Sanqi at this year's Third China Cloud computing Conference, said that the next 10 years, cloud computing will be the industry's industrial shape and characteristics of the function of the huge changes to the network as the center, from CT, it to the integration of ICT.

Previously, the traditional it field and the CT area of telecommunications, as well as the internet (consumer market) is three separate areas. Traditional it is data-centric, and CT is centered on the network. The future of it and CT integration for ICT will be the core of interactive collaboration. For the telecommunications industry, from the CT to the ICT transformation, will change the past to voice-oriented services, into a set of voice and a large number of multimedia information, mobile Internet data flow business as a whole. For the enterprise business, the telecom network into which can meet the needs of the office and processing business. The key to combining the two is cloud computing.

One of the keys to the success of cloud computing is the close integration of cloud network, which is not only the data center of cloud computing, but also interactive and connectivity. The cloud is a variety of structured and unstructured data that needs to be analyzed in the cloud; NET is network pipeline, need to perceive business, perceive content, sense terminal, Huawei is make pipeline is famous, end namely all kinds of access terminals, including PC, tablet computer, smartphone, game machine, etc.

In the traditional data center configuration system, the server, storage, network is vertical structure, separate from each other. But in the cloud computing needs the fusion hardware platform, the network virtualization to the entire hardware structure will have the very big influence. When the implementation of cloud computing, as long as the exchange, storage and virtualization management can be, so that the entire system is truly integrated, flexible and scalable, can achieve a unified management, while the cost really down. Huawei to network as the core business, but also to do the server, storage and other services, mainly to explore how to really do a fusion hardware platform to adapt to the development of the entire cloud computing network.

At the same time, the edge of the industry is blurring, including the IT industry and CT blur, the operator market and the edge of the enterprise market blurred, the current China's three major operators have entered the enterprise market. Therefore, Huawei's strategy to enter the business is also logical. It is reported that the company's business unit has formed a large team of 10,000 people, including 6,000 research and development personnel have been in place. and the IP product line, it product line, CT product line and so on together to form Huawei's business.

At the end of April this year, Huawei officially launched a transition strategy from CT to ICT, in the same vein as Huawei's cloud strategy, which was formally launched globally at the end of 2010. According to the customer type, Huawei divides the company's business into four blocks--carrier business, enterprise business, terminal business and other. Enterprise business, not only carries the Huawei from the telecom operator market to the broader ICT market, expanding the ideal, and as an important part of cloud strategy, it is undoubtedly significant for Huawei, is the future development of the top priority.

This May, with a consistent "quick response" style, Huawei has launched a new third generation AR series Router for the enterprise router market. "From the perspective of business planning, we are not primarily looking at competitors, but are targeting customers and target markets, locking industry changes and customer needs," explains He Dabing, president of Huawei Business Marketing. "It can be seen that Huawei is aiming at the trend of ICT convergence brought about by cloud computing, and insights into the opportunities and customer needs."

In this focus on industry insights and customer-oriented philosophy, Huawei AR G3 Series Routers focus on meeting small and medium-sized enterprises and large Enterprises branch of the first emerging integration needs. And what kind of fusion genes does Huawei AR G3 series routers have? What are the breakthrough features and performance advantages of their products?

Fusion gene and performance function double elevation of Huawei AR G3 Series routers

Compared to the first two generations of products, Huawei AR G3 Router is based on the latest multi-core, non-blocking switching, multi-service concurrent processing of the third generation of enterprise router architecture, business processing capacity of the industry average level of twice times. In addition, the product has adopted a number of Huawei in the field of research and development results, support mobile and fixed a variety of access methods. The specific characteristics are as follows:

First, the integration of Huawei's third generation of AR router is the most prominent features. In the access capability, with the help of the light into the copper and the development of wireless network to the enterprise network and business deployment of new opportunities, new models, AR G3 provides a range of 3G, LTE, Wi-Fi, including a variety of wireless system access and comprehensive wired access to achieve a mobile and fixed integration. At the same time, AR G3 can also evolve to 10G pon fiber access, and realize Epon and Gpon adaptive networking. Such a powerful integration of access capabilities, enabling enterprises to more quickly, efficiently and flexibly access to wide-area networks, and thus achieve ubiquitous office.

Second, the first on the enterprise router provides a dual-master redundancy design, to ensure the high reliability of the system. Compared with the past, the router with simple access function also needs the high reliability guarantee of the router. In fact, the failure of the business production network will lead to disastrous consequences, its reliability requirements even higher than the operator network, the future enterprise ICT systems will undoubtedly need to improve the high reliability of the full effort.

Third, the business processing capacity of the great increase to meet the enterprise customers are growing "high-speed" demand. AR G3 not only from the previous single core to the current 12-core processor, but also the use of 160G switching network architecture, so that business processing capacity to reach the industry average of twice times, so that the desktop end users achieve a speed from 100M to 1000M Leap.

The AR G3 also considers the difference of customer's demand more, and provides a series of characteristics that need to change:

Provides the OSP open business platform, this is Huawei first makes the router product to have the openness. So that enterprise customers, as well as integrators, agents and Third-party application developers, can flexibly according to the actual application needs of two development, so as to achieve the value of a second upgrade.

Support "All in one" multi-service All-in-one processing. Integrated Unified Communications, MMS Gateway, Corporate switchboard, anti-attack/virus and other business, can provide enterprises with integrated, one-stop office network Solutions, reduce enterprise ICT network deployment and operating costs. The design in one is in fact based on requirements, and a branch of a large enterprise in the past often needs to deploy a lot of boxes (switches or routers), and now just one is enough, He Dabing points out. For the "box" savings, will inevitably produce a reduction in costs. Take, for example, a bank with 17,000 branches, roughly estimated, after the deployment of the AR G3 series, a branch office can save at least two network equipment, at the price of 3000 yuan Per device calculation, a total savings of 100 million yuan, and this does not include follow-up shipping costs.
