Alternative/Replacement Products/Solutions 
The recommended replacement product for Multiprotocol Router ARN is the Secure Router 
1001 or 1002. Please note that Nortel’s Secure Router products are IP WAN routers and do 
not support legacy multiprotocol features of the BayRS family, including the Multiprotocol 
Router ARN.  The Secure Router 1001 and 1002, however, provide superior 
price/performance with advanced features in the areas of Routing, WAN, VPN, Security, 
Quality of Service and Network Management.
