■ Supports to configure relationship between access control
list and address pool.
■ Supports to configure relationship between access control
list and interface.
■ Supports the host of external network to access the internal
server

create the security federation
Network reliability Backup center ■ Can back up any physical interface or sub-interface on the
router and an X.25 or frame relay virtual circuit on the
interface as well.
■ Barring the Ethernet interface, any physical interfaces or
virtual interface templates on the router can be used as
backup interfaces. An X.25 or frame relay virtual circuit on
the interface or a dialer route on the dial interface can be
used as backup interface as well.
■ Provides multiple backup interfaces for one main interface.
These backup interfaces will be used according to their
priorities.
■ Backs up multiple main interfaces of the interfaces with
multiple physical channels
■ Supports to configure the conditions to switch the
main/standby interfaces
Hot backup ■ Supports VRRP
