Abstract

Today, large-scale communication network development projects are becoming increasingly common. One of the main tasks in implementation of large multiservice networks is the creation of reliable high-performance transport network that will serve as a backbone in multilayer architecture of next-generation networks.

ESR series service routers could be used in large enterprise networks, SMB networks and operator's networks. Devices provide high performance and bandwidth, and feature protection of transmitted data.

This operation manual describes intended use, specifications, design, installation, first time setup, and firmware update guidelines for the ESR series service router (next, the router or the device).

Target Audience

This user manual is intended for technical personnel that performs device installation, configuration and monitoring via command line interface (CLI) as well as the system maintenance and firmware update procedures. Qualified technical personnel should be familiar with the operation basics of TCP/IP protocol stacks and Ethernet networks design concepts.
