    Frequently Asked Questions

    Yes, It is. With our proprietary AsterNOS-VPP, an open routing operating system based on SONiC, the ET3616 comes ready to use. Imagine if VPP’s data plane and SONiC’s control plane were combined to produce a routing device that is both intelligent and quick. What’s offered? All the good stuff, including dynamic routing protocols like BGP and OSPF, IPSec VPN, NAT, and QoS, are prepared to meet your network requirements. Because of its great adaptability, it can run on any x86, ARM, or virtual machine (VM) that supports VPP.

    Absolutely! Here are the available modules:
    5G/LTE Module: Insert a 5G SIM card to enable 5G uplink routing.
    SSD Module: Expand storage capacity up to 4TB.
    AI Acceleration Module: Implement deep learning and AI inference functions.
    In addition to these M.2 form factors, we offer optional PTP functions:
    PTP Function: An optional PTP module with 20ns accuracy and BC support is available for precise time synchronization. Customers can mix and match these modules to tailor the gateway to their requirements.

    If you decide not to use our integrated SONiC + VPP routing operating system, you have the option to install different open operating systems. The document specifies which operating systems and open-source software are supported. An operating system is already installed; customers can choose between Debian 12 and Ubuntu 24.04. This flexibility allows users to install the open-source software they need, making it an appealing choice. Additionally, our GitHub repository offers developer kits, such as DPDK and VPP, for even more customization.
