The 3Com Open Services Module (OSM) Multi-Interface Module (MIM) integrates Open Services Networking (OSN) applications and services directly into the 3Com MSR 30 Series Multi-Service Router. With its 80 Gb hard disk drive, 1 Gb of memory and pre-installed, secure Linux operating system, the module enables a wide range of applications and services, to be installed directly into the network fabric. The powerful, flexible design of the OSM MIM extends the capabilities of the MSR 30 Series beyond that of just secure routing, delivering unprecedented application and services functionality while reducing cost of ownership.

The OSM MIM uses industry-standard Linux, enabling it to support a very wide range of applications and services, including 3Com and third-party applications and those developed in the open source community. A software development kit (SDK), which provides all the tools and documentation needed to develop additional applications for use on the MIM, is also available.

By embedding applications within an OSM MIM integrated into a 3Com router, the need for additional appliances or devices is reduced, eliminating redundant management of multiple devices and lowering capital expenditures and reducing operating costs. Because of the flexible and open nature of the Open Services Networking MIM, the applications can be loaded onto it as organizational needs change, without having to acquire additional hardware.

The OSM MIM, when installed, is a fully integrated part of the MSR 30 Series. All data flows directed to the module occur across the backplane of the router, ensuring maximum performance and reliability. Management of the OSM MIM is also fully integrated within the router. The Open Services Networking Control Agent (OSN|CA) provides simple point-and-click installation of applications, authenticated and secure communication with the router itself, and other tools such as upgrade and rollback for the applications on the module. The agent also communicates directly with the host router to initiate and manage traffic flows, seamlessly and automatically.
