Standards Router Interoperability Testing
|
3Com products are well engineered and
rigorously tested to ensure compliance with relevant standards.
3Com Router 3000 and Router 5000, running
the currently available operating system v 1.2, and Router
6000 running the currently available operating system 2.0,
were tested by 3Com against the Cisco 2600, 3600, 3725 and
3745 routers, running one of Cisco's operating system versions
12.2 (12c), 12.2 (12g), or 12.3 (x).
|
Results support our claim of standards compatibility for those protocols, features,
models, and software versions tested below.
Additional testing continues, and results will be published as
they are received.
| 3Com Router 3000,
Router 5000, and Router 6000 Families were tested for the interoperability
