Introduction A routing protocol is a protocol that specifies how routers communicate with each other, disseminating information that enables them to select routes between any two nodes on a computer network, the choice of the route being done by routing algorithms. Each router has a prior knowledge only of networks attached to it directly. They imploy various strategies to gain knowledge of the topology of the network. Okapi provides the industry’s most robust, scalable, and feature-rich inter-networking support. Salient Features - Helps businesses reduce costs by enabling deployment of a single device to provide multiple services.
- The flexibility to add or change WAN services to support changing needs and applications, including serial T1, E1, ISDN and broadband DSL, etc.
- Offers a secure broadband router for WLANs in a single device.
- Real-time granular control over network traffic—especially important during periods of high congestion.
- QoS mechanisms to classify, prioritize, and schedule traffic.
- Static routing and Dynamic routing with RIP.
- Support for LAN/WAN interfaces including —Ethernet-10/100, T1/E1, V.35
Unicast Routing Protocols - Support for commonly used unicast routing protocols like RIPv1, RIPv2, RIPng, OSPF, OSPFV6, BGP, ISIS
Multicast Routing Protocols - Most efficient data delivery to multiple receivers by using PIM to build distribution trees.
- Support for most commonly used industry standard multicast routing protocols like PIM-DM, PIM-SM & DVMRP.
DHCP Server, Client and Relay - Various utilities for IP address management including static ip address assignment, DHCP server, DHCP client and DHCP relay.
