Hi Friends, After long time, I am posting new post on my blog.  Hope it will help you to clear basic understanding towards SFP modules.  What is the difference of SFP, SFP+  and XFP?  The 10G module has been developed from 300Pin. XENPAK, X2, XFP and finally achieve with the same size as SFP which can transmit 10G signals called SFP+.

Hi Friends, Below is testing report of Load balancing and back up scenario using Maipu 1800 Routers.  Objective-  Maipu 1800 CPE router need to perform load balancing in between two outgoing interfaces F0 and F1  If one WAN link is down, then another wan link will be primary, vice versa. As the faulty link is restored, Both WAN link should do load balancing for LAN

Hi All friends, Many time we came across requirement of IPSec configurations. Maipu every Router support IPSec. In this section, I will share IPSec Configuration template. It will help you to understand Maipu IPSec configuration steps. Maipu IPSec configuration is having different command line than other vendors. Before looking in details of IPSec template, let’s take a overview of

Hi , In this section. I will share the information of SNMP traps supported by Maipu Routers. Many times we require traps information for notification and monitoring.  Maipu Routers support below SNMP traps: snmp-server start snmp-server view default 1.0.8802 include snmp-server view default 1.1.2 include snmp-server view default 1.3.111 include snmp-server view default 1.3.6.1

In last post, we have seen all basics of IPv6 headers. As we know the IPv6 header is very efficient as compared to IPv4 header due to less fields in IPv6 header and extension header approach in Next header field. These extension headers are added only if needed. Extension headers are appended after the basic datagram header as per requirements. The extension headers numbers may be more in

As we discussed in last post about IPv6 and IPv4 headers.  In this post we will see in details about it.IPv6 header  design is focused mainly on simplicity - to keep the datagram as simple as possible and to keep the size of the headers fixed. The  reason for this was to increase processing performance - simple constant size headers can be processed quickly, at or very close to

This section will explain you about 802.1p priority field in L2 header.This field is majorly used in L2 QOS.        The 802.1p priority is located in the L2 packet header. It is used when you don’t want to analyze the L3 packet header, but need to ensure QOS in L2 environment. As shown in below diagram, the 4-byte 802.1Q header contains 2-byte TPID (Tag Protocol Identifier
