Headline	Boosts Agility and Resiliency
Headline	Enhances Time to Service and Branch Performance
Headline	Increases Your Return on Your Investment
Headline	Layer 3 routing
Headline	Layer 3 services
Headline	Quality of Service (QoS)
Key selling point	Address Resolution Protocol (ARP): determines the MAC address of another IP host in the same subnet; supports static ARPs; gratuitous ARP allows detection of duplicate IP addresses; proxy ARP allows normal ARP operation between subnets or when subnets are separated by a Layer 2 network
Key selling point	Advanced hardware architecture with multi-core processors ensures reliable, high performance functionality.
Key selling point	Border Gateway Protocol 4 (BGP-4): delivers an implementation of the Exterior Gateway Protocol (EGP) utilizing path vectors; uses TCP for enhanced reliability for the route discovery process; reduces bandwidth consumption by advertising only incremental updates, and supports extensive policies for increased flexibility, as well as scales to very large networks
Key selling point	Congestion management: supports FIFO, PQ, CQ, WFQ, CBQ, and RTPQ
Key selling point	Deploy advanced features with no additional licensing.
Key selling point	Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP): simplifies the management of large IP networks and supports client and server; DHCP Relay enables DHCP operation across subnets
Key selling point	Intermediate system to intermediate system (IS-IS): uses a path vector Interior Gateway Protocol (IGP), which is defined by the ISO organization for IS-IS routing and extended by IETF RFC 1195 to operate in both TCP/IP and the OSI reference model (Integrated IS-IS)
Key selling point	Makes administration easier with HPE Intelligent Management Center (IMC) Software.
Key selling point	Nested QoS: provides a built-in QoS engine that supports nested QoS (Same to hierarchical QoS) and can implement a hierarchical scheduling mechanism based on ports, user groups, users, and user services.
Key selling point	Open shortest path first (OSPF): delivers faster convergence; uses this link-state routing Interior Gateway Protocol (IGP), which supports ECMP, NSSA, and MD5 authentication for increased security and graceful restart for faster failure recovery
Key selling point	Other QoS technologies: supports traffic shaping, MPLS QoS, and MP QoS/LFI
Key selling point	Reduces management complexity with zero-touch deployment (ZTP) and Dynamic VPN.
Key selling point	Reduces your TCO through open standards, power and space savings, and energy-efficient hardware.
Key selling point	Routing Information Protocol (RIP): uses a distance vector algorithm with UDP packets for route determination; supports RIPv1 and RIPv2 routing; includes loop protection
Key selling point	Satisfies medium branches with advanced hardware architecture and high port density.
Key selling point	Static IPv4 routing: provides simple, manually configured IPv4 routing
Key selling point	Supports branch services with a comprehensive feature set and eases the cloud transition with integrated security.
Key selling point	The HPE MSR2000 Router Series is a modular platform with a wide range of connectivity options that enables the right design for your needs.
Key selling point	The HPE MSR2000 Router Series offers high performance routing with up to 1 Mpps forwarding and 400 Mbps of IPSec encryption throughput to meet bandwidth requirements of branch traffic.
Key selling point	The HPE MSR2000 Router Series simplifies your network through integrated routing, switching, security, and voice, and combines the flexibility of modular upgrades to deliver high-performance medium branch routing.
Key selling point	Traffic policing: supports Committed Access Rate (CAR) and line rate
Key selling point	User Datagram Protocol (UDP) helper: redirects UDP broadcasts to specific IP subnets to prevent server spoofing
Key selling point	Weighted random early detection (WRED)/random early detection (RED): delivers congestion avoidance capabilities through the use of queue management algorithms
Key selling point	With advanced hardware architecture, you get reliable, high-performance functionality with multi-core processors.
