When it comes to BGP servers, I believe everyone is familiar with them, but generally speaking, BGP server There are many different types of BGP servers that correspond to different business needs of customers. How can we distinguish these different types of BGP servers? Strictly speaking, traditional BGP The server How can we divide it? Micronet believes that, BGP The server can According to different standard BGP servers can be classified into many types, mainly by network size, architecture (chip), purpose, appearance, etc. So today, Micronet will take you to know.
1. By network size
According to the network scale, BGP servers are divided into workgroup level BGP servers, department level BGP servers, and enterprise level BGP servers.
Workgroup level BGP server
For small networks with dozens of networked computers or low requirements for processing speed and system reliability, their hardware configurations are relatively low and their reliability is not very high.
Departmental BGP server
For medium-sized networks with about 100 networked computers and medium processing speed and system reliability, their hardware configuration is relatively high and their reliability is at a medium level.
Enterprise BGP server
For large networks with more than hundreds of networked computers and the highest requirements for processing speed and data security, the hardware configuration is the highest and the system reliability is the highest.
It should be noted that the boundary between these three BGP servers is not absolute, but rather vague. For example, the difference between workgroup BGP servers and department BGP servers is not obvious. Some are simply referred to as "workgroup/department BGP servers".
2. By architecture (chip)
According to the structure of BGP server, it can be divided into CISC (Complex Instruction Set) BGP server and RISC (Reduced Instruction Set) BGP server:
IA Architecture BGP Server (Intel Architecture Server） -That is, the PCBGP server usually uses x86 (CISC) chips and mainly uses Windows BGP servers of NT/Windows2000, Linux, FreeBSD and other operating systems, such as Intel Pentium III (P4) and Intel (P4) Xeon, etc.
RISC architecture BGP server It refers to BGP server using non Intel architecture technology, BGP servers using RISC chips and UNIX operating systems, such as SPARC of SUN, PA-RISC of HP, Alpha chip of DEC, MIPS of SGI, etc;
Because the performance and price of RISC BGP server is much higher than that of CISC BGP server. In recent years, with the rapid development of PC technology, the technical gap between IA based BGP servers and RISC based BGP servers has been greatly narrowed. Users are basically inclined to choose IA based BGP servers, but RISC based BGP servers still play a very important role in large and key application fields.
3. By use
According to the use, BGP servers can be divided into general-purpose BGP servers and dedicated (or "functional") BGP servers.
Universal BGP server There is no BGP server specially designed for a particular service that can provide various service functions. At present, most BGP servers are general-purpose BGP servers.
Special purpose (or "functional") BGP server It is a BGP server specially designed for one or several functions. It is different from the general BGP server in some aspects. If the CD image BGP server is used to store the CD image, it needs to be equipped with a high-capacity, high-speed hard disk and CD image software.
4. By appearance
According to the appearance of BGP server, it can be divided into desktop BGP server, rack BGP server and blade BGP server
Desktop BGP server (workstation, tower) Some use cases roughly the same size as vertical PC desktops, and some use cases with large capacity, like a huge cabinet, which are mainly divided into single tower and double tower, as shown in the figure below.
Single tower (supports a single CPU)
Dual tower (supports two CPUs)
Rack mounted BGP server It looks like a switch instead of a computer. It has 1U (1U=1.75 inches), 2U, 4U and other specifications, as shown in the following figure.
2U rack type BGP server
Rack type BGP server meets the requirements of enterprise Intensive deployment , forming a BGP server type with a 19 inch rack as the standard width.
Placing the BGP server on the rack is not only It is conducive to daily maintenance and management ， It is also possible to avoid unexpected failures 。 First, place the BGP server Do not occupy too much space 。 Rack BGP servers are neatly arranged in the rack, which will not waste space. Secondly, the connecting wires can also be neatly folded into the rack. The power cable and LAN cable can all be laid in the cabinet, which can reduce the number of connection cables stacked on the ground, so as to prevent accidents such as kicking off wires. The specified dimensions are the width (48.26cm=19 inches) and height (a multiple of 4.445cm) of the BGP server. Since the width is 19 inches, sometimes the rack that meets this requirement is called "19 inch rack".
Blade BGP server is a kind of "HAHD (High Availability High Density, high availability and high density) " The low-cost BGP server platform is specially designed for special application industries and high-density computer environments. In structure, it is more compact than the rack type BGP server described earlier, because it is very thin like a blade, and can be inserted into the cabinet of the entire BGP server system according to needs, so it is called "blade BGP server", as shown below. It mainly applies cluster services.
The above is the question of how to divide the traditional BGP servers analyzed by Micronet. I hope it can help you have a deeper understanding of the traditional BGP servers. BGP server virtual host renting, rapid deployment, multiple line options, support for partitioned dedicated lines T-class bandwidth can provide better quality IDC services. Micronet is an IDC service provider focusing on BGP server and virtual host rental and hosting. With more than ten years of industry experience, it is safe, stable, reliable and reassuring. It is a leading enterprise in the domestic IDC industry. It helps thousands of enterprises to achieve network informatization, 7 * 24 hours of manual service, after-sales care free, and reputation.
