IQ2000 Network Processor IQ2000 Network Processor Product Brief Product Brief Network Processor Family Solving the Next Generation Service Aggregation Challenge... An Example Use of the IQ2000 Family Change is Constant... A fundamental shift is occurring in the network-hardware-manufactur ing marketplace as demands for very highspeed, service-enabled products eclipse those for more traditional layer 2/3 routing and switching offerings. The combination of hardware acceleration needs, direct support for IP services/ features, and demands for longer product life-cycles with reduced time to market, has given birth to the Programmable Network Processor industry. Highlights: The IQ2000 Delivers! * Four integrated 200MHz, fully * Complex Multi-Protocol Routing programmable, multi-context packet processing engines * Quality of Service * Flexible, High Bandwidth I/O * Classification Interface Capability (from DS-0 to OC-48) * Filtering * High Performance, Patented * Stateful Inspection * Traffic Policing * Traffic Grooming/Shaping * Multicast/Stream Management * Address Translation Internal Architecture (50 Gb/s) IP Based Service-Enabled Aggregation Platform The Intelligent Edge of the PDN Transport Core must provide both data aggregation and extensive IP Services. Although these two elements conceptually work closely together, today they are performed in entirely different products (aggregation and service delivery). Link aggregation products take data that is transported over low speed links (or potentially multiple low speed links) and assemble this data into IP Packets. This is a job of varying degrees of difficulty, depending on link type and aggregation methodology employed.

In this area, services are defined as "value-added operations" performed on a packet (tagging for MPLS, classification for DiffServ, policy enforcement, and other sophisticated services). * Control Plane Processor Independence (Native support for MIPS, PowerPC, and other RISC implementations) * Specialized Co-Processors for Lookup, Order Management, Multicast Support, DMA Management, and Context Management * Optimized Instruction Set for Network Operations This design concept is unique because it provides the basis for collapsing two physically different components (with different architectures, different management facilities, and different provisioning facilities) into a single, highly integrated platform. * Per Flow Queuing Support for up to a half million flows. * Hardware Support for Quality (QoS) of Service Building Blocks * Comprehensive Development Ordering Information: Ushering in a New Era of Performance and Flexibility The IQ2000TM Family of Network Processors is the industry's first, control-plane-processor-independent family of intelligent packet processing devices. The IQ2000 family is designed to deliver flexible, high-performance, deep-packet processing solutions at speeds ranging from DS0 to OC-48. Applications for the IQ2000 family include complex multi-protocol routing, classification, filtering, stateful inspection, encryption, policing/policy enforcement, traffic grooming/shaping, multicast/ stream management, network address translation, and other demanding packet processing operations.
