H3C CR16000-F Series Router
The CR16000-F is a high-end router series independently developed by H3C. It utilizes distributed hardware forwarding, and non-blocking switching technology. It adopts an advanced CLOS architecture with a separate control plane and forwarding plane. It supports high-density FE/GE, 10GE, 25GE, 40GE, 50GE, 100GE, 400GE interfaces, with flexible single-slot performance expansion to meet different network position requirements. It supports the advanced Comware 7 network operating system, which perfectly integrates with the CR16000-F in multiple aspects such as multi-core CPU support, distributed computing, modular design, high availability architecture, virtualization, and openness. It uses mature virtualization technology to improve network reliability while reducing device maintenance workload. It supports powerful BRAS functionality and carrier-grade CGN, meeting the development needs of multi-service edge MSE devices for operators and core devices for campus networks. It supports various network protection technologies and 1588v2 synchronous Ethernet, serving as an ER router to meet the IPRAN networking needs of operators. It supports the SR/SRv6, FlexE, iFIT, and NETCONF technologies, and has comprehensive SDN capabilities. Combined with the AD-WAN controller, it can achieve automatic business distribution, flexible network scheduling, multi-dimensional business assurance, and intelligent network O&M. With the support of IPSec VPN technology, it can meet users' demands for a trusted network.
The control plane of the CR16000-F adopts multi-core and SMP symmetric multiprocessing technology, running the advanced Comware 7 operating system. Each software module has an independent operating space and can be dynamically loaded and separately upgraded.
Comware 7 supports distributed computing and global services such as MPLS and BGP. It can run on the designated MPU CPU system and distribute the main programs of each global service to different MPU systems, effectively balancing the pressure on each CPU and improving the overall performance of the system. A global service can be further split into sub-functions and the system distributes them to different MPU CPU systems, achieving distributed computing for a global service.
