Abstract

Network processors have created new opportunities by performing more complex calculations. Routers

perform the most useful and difficult processing operations. In this paper the routers of VXR 7200, ISR

4451-X, SBC 7600, 7606 have been investigated which their main positive points include scalability,

flexibility, providing integrated services, high security, supporting and updating with the lowest cost, and

supporting standard protocols of network. In addition, in the current study these routers have been

explored from hardware and processor capacity viewpoints separately.

Keywords
