The Dual Trunk E1 Router supports bridging, static routing, and dynamic routing RIP1, RIP2, and
OSPF. The two E1 links can be configured as either two independent PPP or Frame Relay links to
different destinations, or a single multilink connection (MLPPP or MLFR FRF.16 ) to one
destination for load balancing and link redundancy application. A firewall permits or denies access
based on source and destination IP addresses.
Configuration and troubleshooting is accessible to novice and advanced users with the availability
of a menu-based Terminal User Interface and an industry-standard Command Line Interface (CLI).
Complete router configuration can be automated remotely by downloading router configuration
files.
The Dual Trunk E1 Router is SNMP-manageable, offers menu-driven configuration, includes
comprehensive diagnostics, in-band management, and network performance monitoring (RMON1
and RMON2). These tools provide visibility on the usage of the WAN connections.
