CORE EDGE ROUTER: RS 38000

RS 38000 Service

Creation Platform

for Core Edge

Product Overview

The RS 38000 is Riverstone's highest

capacity metro aggregation router. As the

largest member of the RS family, this product

sets the standard for service-rich, high-

capacity metro aggregation. The RS 38000

is a NEBS-compliant, carrier-class router

featuring fully redundant processors, switch

fabrics, and power supplies, along with a

standards-based implementation of the

Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP).

Combining powerful service creation

capabilities with hardware-based, connection-

oriented services accounting, the RS 38000

is also uniquely positioned to extend the

delivery of value-added services across

backbone networks. At the same time, a

broad range of interface options enables the

RS 38000 to aggregate traffic and deliver

services over any type of optical or legacy

network. Overall, the RS 38000 makes the

perfect fit for service creation in the most

demanding and highest density environments

found in today’s Metro networks.

Applications and Positioning

The RS 38000 is an aggregation router

designed primarily for the Internet core

edge, metro core ring, or high density data

center. As Riverstone’s highest capacity

router, it is the appropriate choice wherever

service providers require very high capacity

aggregation over a variety of media types

along with high-speed uplinks. The

RS 38000 is ideally suited to serve as an

MPLS Label Edge Router (LER) or Label

Switch Router (LSR), and sits at the critical

juncture for extending metro VPN services

over a nationwide ATM or MPLS backbone.

It is also suitable for cost-effective

CWDM/Ethernet metro backhaul or regional

transport networks between access rings,

POPs, and data centers. And because it

features the same core technology as the

rest of the RS family, including a common

set of ASICs and the same system software,

the RS 38000 is capable of supporting the

same rich array of service applications

as all other Riverstone routers.

Key Benefits and Selling Points

Carrier-class reliability: When equipment fails at the Internet core edge, the entire network

is jeopardized. That’s why rock-solid reliability is the paramount concern of service providers

operating in this part of the network. The RS 38000 is a fully NEBS-compliant router that delivers

a host of redundancy features to ensure carrier-class reliability. Key reliability features include:

• Tier 1-certified routing code, featuring the industry’s most stable implementations of OSPF,

BGP-4, and IS IS

• NEBS level 3 certification

• Redundant CPU, power supplies, and switching fabric

• Hot-swappable media modules

• Standards-based virtual router redundancy protocol (VRRP)

• Self-healing route paths through OSPF multipath, MLPPP, and Smart Trunking

Streamlined networks through versatile, high-capacity aggregation: Nowhere in the

network is the ability to aggregate high traffic volumes over a variety of interfaces more important

than at the Internet core edge. Service providers need the ability to gather high-capacity data

flows from the full spectrum of metro access and aggregation media, and then uplink that traffic

over a range of backhaul technologies – all in a single router. The RS 38000 has the port density

and media versatility to accomplish in one box what competitors often do in 2 or 3 box solutions.

Key features include:

• High port capacity, with support for up to 480 Fast Ethernet ports and 120 Gigabit Ethernet

ports. (See the table on pages 9-10 for full details on port densities)

• Broad range of connectivity options, including Fast Ethernet, GbE, CWDM, POS/SDH, ATM,

and T3/E3, with scheduled support for 10 GbE and Packet Ring (RPR). (See the table on

page 9 for available interfaces)

Services extension across the

backbone: As service providers roll out value-

added services to their subscribers, they need

to be sure they can deliver those services on

an end-to-end basis. The RS 38000 supports

an industry-leading set of service-enabling

technologies, allowing service providers to

extend their service offerings to the Internet

core and beyond. Hardware implementations

ensure wire-speed performance with all

features enabled. Key features include:

• Metro-optimized MPLS in hardware,

enabling the RS 38000 to act as an LER

or LSR for end-to-end VPN and traffic

prioritization services

• Reliable support for the full 4,096 VLANS

specified in 802.1q, along with VLAN to

LSP mapping

• Hardware-based rate limiting on every port

enabling dynamic bandwidth provisioning

at the wholesale level

• Irrefutable services billing at wire-speed,

featuring the industry’s only connection-

oriented accounting solution with full

RMON I and II and BGP accounting
