Notable custom-firmware projects for wireless routers.Many of these will run on various brands such as Linksys, Asus, Netgear, etc. OpenWrt – Customizable FOSS firmware written from scratch; features a combined SquashFS/JFFS2 file system and the package manager opkg [1] with over 3000 available packages (Linux/GPL); now merged with LEDE.
From version 7.6.1 and onwards, the kernel has been switched to OpenEmbedded. IOS XR aims to provide the following advantages over the earlier IOS trains: Improved high availability (largely through support for hardware redundancy and fault containment methods such as protected memory spaces for individual processes and process restartability)
A residential gateway is a small consumer-grade gateway which bridges network access between connected local area network (LAN) hosts to a wide area network (WAN) (such as the Internet) via a modem, or directly connects to a WAN (as in EttH), while routing.
OpenWrt (from open wireless router) is an open-source project for embedded operating systems based on Linux, primarily used on embedded devices to route network traffic. The main components are Linux, util-linux, musl, [5] and BusyBox.
Routers perform the traffic directing functions on the Internet; data packets are forwarded through the networks of the internet from router to router until they reach their destination computer. Routing algorithms determine the specific choice of route. Each router has a prior knowledge only of networks attached to it directly.
The router can be used in other networks if the 3G cards are unlocked, because it is not the router, but the 3G cards that are locked to Vodafone. To use it in other networks it is necessary to change the settings of the APN, user and password manually to those of the new network. It can also be unlocked by flashing EM/EU version firmware.
Redback Networks was founded in August 1996 by Gaurav Garg, Asher Waldfogel, and William M. Salkewicz. [3] The company received seed money from Sequoia Capital. [4]In May 1999, during the dot-com bubble, the company became a public company via an initial public offering.
In cases where secondary/standby routers all have the same priority, the secondary/standby router with the highest IP address becomes the primary/active router. All physical routers acting as a virtual router must be in the same local area network (LAN) segment. Communication within the virtual router takes place periodically.
