How to analyze how many users can be used at the same time on an enterprise router?

The DHCP of a wireless router theoretically supports more than 253 devices to surf the Internet at the same time, but in practice, it can only support a limited number of devices due to its performance. The number of devices in a wireless router is related to its throughput and concurrent connections.

An ordinary computer with normal Internet access,The number of concurrent connections is between 200-300,If you open the **software such as Thunderbolt**,The number of concurrent connections will increase rapidly,From more than 200 to 3000,The default number of connections of the XP genuine system is very small,So when you install Thunderbolt, you will be reminded to modify the maximum number of connections。 If a router has reached the maximum number of connections, it will not be able to connect if there are new requests.

The number of concurrent connections of ordinary home wireless routers is mostly between 1000 and 2000. The number of enterprise-level wireless routers (such as TL-WVR450G and Tengda W20E) is 50 units. ) is generally around 12,000.

According to the calculation of 250 concurrent connections per computer for normal Internet access, the number of home wireless routers is 4-8, and the number of enterprise-level wireless routers TL-WVR450G and Tengda W20E is 48. **Higher, higher-performance routers are a different story.

Enterprise or campus-level routers connect many end systems, with the primary goal of interconnecting as many endpoints as possible in the cheapest way possible, and further requiring support for different quality of service. Many existing enterprise networks are Ethernet segments connected by hubs or bridges. While these devices** are cheap, easy to install, and require no configuration, they do not support service levels.

Conversely, a network with the participation of routers is able to divide the machine into multiple collision domains and thus control the size of a network. In addition, routers support a certain level of service, allowing at least multiple priority levels. However, routers are more expensive per port and require a lot of configuration work before they can be used.

Therefore, the success or failure of an enterprise router depends on whether it provides a large number of ports with low cost per port, whether it is easy to configure, and whether it supports QoS. Enterprise-class routers are also required to effectively support broadcast and multicast. Enterprise networks also deal with a variety of legacy LAN technologies that support multiple protocols, including IP, IPX, and Vine.

They also need to support firewalls, packet filtering, and a host of management and security policies and VLANs.

Hope it helps! Thank you!

Haha vv jealous scenery.

The DHCP of the router theoretically supports more than 200 devices to surf the Internet at the same time, but in practice, it can only support a limited number of devices due to its performance. However, this also needs to be decided according to the model of the router and the actual usage.

It depends on how much the DHCP range is set.

First of all, you need to enter the router's settings interface, and the way to enter is to enter the address of the router in the browser, which is usually.

After entering, in the advanced settings, there is a DHCP service, in which the DHCP client list shows the connection status of the router, including the connected device, MAC address and time, etc.

You can filter by MAC address to block devices that don't belong to you. It is not too difficult to do it according to the tips of the router.

You can log in to the router management page to view the list of DHCP services. Inside is the name of the device that is now connected to the network and the assigned IP.

You can also check the traffic in the system tool, if it is enabled, after the last empty, all the devices connected to the router will use the traffic will be displayed here.

Taking TP-Link as an example, the specific operations are as follows:

Enter in the browser, enter the account number, and password to log in to the management page.

Find the DHCP server on the left side of the management page and click Open, there is a list of small clients. When clicked, the login device name, assigned IP and MAC address will be displayed.

Find System Tools at the bottom of the left side of the management page, and click Traffic Statistics, which is disabled by default. If it is on, all devices that have been connected to the router are displayed.

Enter the router's settings interface, DHCP server, and the client list can be viewed.

Enter in the browser bar.

Theoretically, the wireless router supports more than 256 devices to surf the Internet at the same time, but in practice, it can only support a limited number of devices due to its performance.

The number of concurrent connections of enterprise-level wireless routers is generally about 12000, and the number of Internet users that can be supported should be about 50.

It depends on how you set it, if you set it up like this, the number of connections can theoretically reach 65279; However, if you set it to a network segment, the theoretical maximum number of connections is 254. Of course, it depends on the quality of your router, if the hardware configuration is too low, the machine will drag the router to death.

Depending on what type of IP your router is set to, this kind of IP is up to 2-254.

In actual use, if you don't use a switch or hub, you can look at the number of interfaces of the router, leave one for the cat, and the other interfaces can be connected to the user's computer; And even if you use a switch, the processing power of the router is limited, and the computer will lose packets if there are too many computers, and the home router generally should not connect more than 10 computers.

Theoretically, even if there is only one router with a switch, it will not support an unlimited number of computers, and it will be limited by the size of the router address pool.

Since it's a high-end route, isn't it written in the manual? There's no formula for this.,It's basically based on actual experience and ask the manufacturer's technical support Luo.。

I saw this stat in a post, but it didn't work...

TP-Link 402 with up to 4 units.

TP-Link 402+ comes with up to 4 + 1 switch.

TP-Link 410+ with less than 20.

TP-Link 460 with 20-30 units.

TP-Link 478 with up to 40 units (for Internet cafes).

TP-Link 478+ (dual WAN port, which is commonly referred to as dual lines of telecom and Netcom).

Just look at how many interfaces there are on the route, for example, the route of interface 4 can support up to 3 users to surf the Internet, and the route of interface 5 can support 4 users to surf the Internet!! There is also an interface for these routes that is not provided to the user, but to your "cat", which is written in English as wan!! So it's generally calculated by the number of interfaces!!

Theoretically, with unlimited support, you can install a router on a LAN port and then connect the computer to the switch, the number is unlimited, but the speed is affected.

And the switches can also be cascaded, that is, the switches can be connected to the switches.

The number of sockets in the back, if there are five, you can support four, one in and four out.

There are as many users as there are several interfaces.

If it's wireless, it depends on how many IP segments you have.

It doesn't seem to be counted, but it depends on how many interfaces he has.

Ordinary home-grade wireless routers support up to 20 or 30 users, and if you want to meet the needs of 100 users at the same time, you can only use enterprise-level wireless routers, such as Huawei, Aruba, Ruijie, etc., as well as DLINK or Cisco. If the price is enough, you can go to Zhongguancun** to have a look. Some things to look out for when buying a router:

1. The number of wireless router connection clients, "theory": wireless router, each router can carry 254-1=253 wireless clients. However, make sure your routes are good enough.

Hehe: This 254 is a theoretical definition. I think. Buy a bull's point, a few thousand pieces of wireless routing, it is possible to bring 254 computers.

2. It is related to the model and performance of the wireless router. The products of each manufacturer and each model are different. Ordinary ones may be a few to a dozen; Some sell in the thousands, and this kind of connecting dozens or hundreds of machines may be no problem, and the speed is very fast.

3. Look at the model, the general one can support 30 points of access, but it will not work if you wait too much. Generally, low-end wireless routers support about 15, and if it is voice, it is generally 10. Because of the problem of his processing power, it can be stable!

If the data exchanged is large, it may be unstable! This is a normal low-end model.
