HP Networking Routers
Data Center

High-performance WAN services routers deliver robust routing, security, switching, and modular WAN/LAN for large-scale data center and campus WAN networks.

The HP 8800 routers series provide wire-speed 10 Gigabit ethernet forwarding as well as carrier-class services, security and availability to meet the robust demands of service and application providers.
Campus

High-performance WAN services routers deliver robust routing, security, switching, and modular WAN/LAN with superior price/performance for small to medium campus and high-end branch locations.

The HP 6600 series routers dramatically enhance service processing capacity with HP FlexNetwork.
Branch

The HP MSR50 Series Routers are high performance modular routers designed for large branches and regional offices to connect to corporate network over WAN.

Designed for connecting enterprise branches, regional offices as well as customer presence equipment (CPE) by service providers, the HP MSR30 Series delivers unmatched performance and flexibility.

The HP MSR20 Series features a modular design that delivers unmatched flexibility for small branch offices and small to medium-sized businesses, while reducing complexity, simplifying management, and increasing control.

The HP MSR20-1x Series are full-featured, economical routers designed for converged WAN, wired, and Wireless LAN traffic at enterprise branch locations and small to medium-sized businesses.

Featuring advanced software and an industry-leading hardware platform, the HP MSR 900 Series Multi-Service Router with 802.11b/g provides enhanced performance, security, and reliability for small branch connectivity.

The MSR930 Router supports 1 WAN Gigabit Ethernet Port , 4 switching Gigabit Ethernet ports , 1 console port, and 1 USB2.0 port.
HP campus and branch routers demonstrate industry leading scalability, services and reliability
Challenge
The unprecedented load on today’s branch and campus networks from the proliferation of cloud services, rich media, and enterprise applications present a challenge for network designers. These new applications require enterprises to deliver high-performance routing, rich routing capabilities, and fast convergence to support tens of thousands of users connecting across hundreds branch offices.
HP router performance tested by Spirent

HP worked with Spirent to design a large scale enterprise network to emulate the most demanding branch and campus WAN networks. In 2012, Spirent tested the HP 6608 router and MSR50 router in the Spirent Proof of Concept lab in Sunnyvale, California.
The test bed consisted of a Spirent TestCenter, Spirent Avalanche 3100B appliance, and an HP 6608 router.
Spirent validated that the HP 6608 router delivered:
- Up to 108 million pps forwarding performance
- 60 Gbps of firewall throughput
- 24 Gbps of IPsec AES throughput
- 20,000 GRE tunnels
- 18,000 L2TP tunnels
- 6,000 IPsec tunnels
- 8 million TCP concurrent sessions
- 320,000 sessions per second
- Fail-over of the main processing unit (MPU) with no impact detected on end user experience or service quality
- Fast convergence time of 32.3 milliseconds (BFD IP Fast Re-Route)
In addition, the HP MSR50 Series router delivered high speed routing and services performance. During the testing, the HP MSR50 Series router scaled to 1280 Kpps forwarding with 2 Gbps firewall, NAT, and QoS performance.
HP routers, tested by Spirent, demonstrated industry leading scale, rich services, and fast convergence to enable enterprises to deliver high performance cloud applications, rich media, and enterprise applications to all users regardless of location.
