The R5000 was also used in embedded systems such as network routers and high-end printers.
But now drives linked to a network router by an Ethernet connection are finally ready for the home.
The network router also has a fifth port, used for I/O.
Initial setup, however, requires a wired connection to a network router.
The systems must also support the various routing protocols to effectively analyze the updates announced by the network routers.
Systems can include personal computers, servers, mainframes, network routers, switches.
Priority queuing can be used to manage limited resources such as bandwidth on a transmission line from a network router.
Some researchers see optical memory as needed to reduce the demands on the network routers in data transmission, while others do not.
More worrisome than host-file attacks is the compromise of a local network router.
A network router called Dicentra was also based on this design.
