Product overview

Cisco ASR 1000 Series Aggregation Services Routers provide a Software Defined WAN platform that aggregates multiple WAN connections and network services including encryption and traffic management, and forward them across WAN connections at line speeds from 2.5 to 200 Gbps. The routers contain both hardware and software redundancy in an industry-leading high-availability design.

The latest additions to the Cisco ASR 1000 Series are the Cisco ASR 1002-HX Router and the Cisco ASR 1001-HX Router. Both new routers support up to 100 Gbps in a 2-Rack-Unit (2RU) and 60 Gbps in a 1-Rack-Unit (1RU) form factor, respectively. The ASR 1002-HX has 8 built-in 10 Gigabit Ethernet (GE) ports and 8 1 GE ports, with the Ethernet Port Adapter (EPA) slot for expansion. The ASR 1001-HX has 4 built-in 10 GE ports, 8 1 GE ports, and 4 configurable 10 GE or 1 GE ports. The Cisco ASR 1000 Series Route Processor 3 is the newest addition to the modular control plane engines in the Cisco ASR 1000 Series. The Route Processor 3 adds more options for higher performance, memory, and storage to the ASR 1000 Series.

The Cisco ASR 1000 Series supports Cisco IOS XE Software, a modular operating system with modular packaging, feature velocity, and powerful resiliency. The Cisco ASR 1000 Series Embedded Services Processors (ESPs), which are based on Cisco Flow Processor technology, accelerate many advanced features such as crypto-based access security; Network Address Translation (NAT), thread defense with Cisco Zone-Based Firewall (ZBFW), Deep Packet Inspection (DPI), Cisco Unified Border Element (CUBE), and a diverse set of Data-Center-Interconnect (DCI) features. These services are implemented in Cisco IOS XE Software without the need for additional hardware support.

Cisco ASR 1000 Series routers sit at the edge of your enterprise data center or large office connecting to the WAN, as well as in service provider Points Of Presence (POPs). The Cisco ASR 1000 Series will benefit the following types of customers:

     Enterprises experiencing explosive network traffic as mobility, cloud networking, and video and collaboration usage increase: Cisco ASRs consolidate these various traffic streams and apply traffic management and redundancy properties to them to maintain consistent performance among enterprise sites and cloud locations.

     Network service providers needing to deliver high-performance services, such as DCI and branch-office server aggregation, to business customers: Service providers can also use the multiservice routers to deploy hosted and managed services to business and multimedia services to residential customers.

     Existing Cisco 7200 Series Router (end-of-sale) customers looking for simple migration to a new multiservice platform that delivers greater performance with the same design.

Features and benefits

The Cisco ASR 1000 Series Routers carry a modular yet integrated design, so network operators can increase their network capacity and services without a hardware upgrade. With flexibility in the number of connections, speed maximums, and price, you don’t have to under- or overprovision for any network location.

Alternatively, you also have the option to buy “-X” and “-HX” models, so you can increase throughput by simply purchasing upgrade licenses as you grow to increase your network speed dynamically.

Cisco Software-Defined WAN

Cisco SD-WAN can be enabled on the Cisco ASR 1000 series platforms with IOS-XE. Cisco SD-WAN offers an entirely new way to manage and operate your WAN infrastructure. Cisco SD-WAN is a cloud delivered architecture that offers secure, flexible and rich services with the following key benefits:

     Better user experience: The ability to deploy applications in minutes, on any platform, with a consistent user experience. Deliver predictable performance for applications residing in the data center or in the cloud.

     Greater agility: Faster, easier deployment and operation of your WAN, and get faster performance using less bandwidth. Add new revenue generating services in minutes not months.

     Advanced threat protection: Securely connect your users to applications in minutes and protect your data from the WAN edge to the cloud. Secure segmentation for critical assets and multi-layer, robust security that encrypts all data.

SD-WAN Integrated Security

In order to efficiently connect to multiple cloud infrastructures many enterprise customers want to build an SD-WAN infrastructure that uses Direct Internet Access (DIA). This can save costs and reduce complexity by reducing WAN traffic backhauled to your data centers; however connecting branches directly to the internet without the right security controls exposes your network to threats and vulnerabilities.

With Cisco SD-WAN and the ASR 1000 series platforms, you have integrated security built-right-in for branch DIA security with these integrated security capabilities:

     Application aware enterprise firewall

     DNS layer enforcement (Umbrella)

And with Cisco SD-WAN security integration you will reduce complexity by having a single management interface (vManage) for both the network and security.

For more info on Cisco SD-WAN and vManage see: https://www.cisco.com/go/sd-wan.

Application visibility

Applications and users are more distributed than ever, and the internet has effectively become the new enterprise WAN. As organizations continue to embrace internet, cloud, and SaaS, network and IT teams are challenged to deliver consistent and reliable connectivity and application performance over networks and services they don’t own or directly control.

The ASR 1000 Series Routers are integrated with Cisco ThousandEyes internet and cloud intelligence. IT managers now have expanded visibility, including hop-by-hop analytics, into network underlay, proactive monitoring of SD-WAN overlay, and performance measurement of SaaS applications. This granular visibility ultimately lowers the Mean Time to Identification of Issues (MTTI) and accelerates resolution time.

Unified access security and multi-factor authentication

The Zero trust security model allows secure connections to all applications (whether on premises or in the cloud) based on the trustworthiness of users and devices.

Table 1 summarizes the features and benefits of the Cisco ASR 1000 Series Routers.

In-Service Software Upgrade (ISSU) support

  You don’t need to schedule downtime windows; changes are made while the system keeps on working, with nonstop routing availability.

Cisco IOS XE Software Sub-package Mode

  You can upgrade individual software components in less time.

Scalable capacity and throughput

Cisco Flow Processor-based platform

  Advanced services can operate at high speeds without the need for additional hardware or blades.

Hardware acceleration

  Features such as Quality of Service (QoS), cryptography, and Access Control Lists (ACLs) are processed in hardware.

Control- and forwarding-plane separation

  You can scale control and data planes independently of each other.

Investment protection

Software modularity

  You can mix and match the services that best meet your business needs; you won’t “waste” investments on capabilities you don’t need.

Pay-as-you-grow licensing with “-X” models

  When you need greater throughput, you simply activate it with a change in software license, rather than having to expend capital for additional hardware.

Cisco Shared Port Adapters (SPAs)

  You can reuse your investment in network I/O across platforms.

Cisco Network Interface Modules (NIMs)

  You can reuse your investment in network I/O across platforms.

Product portfolio

Software licensing

Software subscription through Cisco DNA Licensing

The ASR 1000 series supports software based subscription using Cisco DNA based licensing. Two Cisco DNA based software subscription licenses are available for the WAN portfolio: Cisco DNA Advantage and Cisco DNA Premier allowing customers to have a single unified solution that spans across the ASR 1000 series routers and its ISR 1000 and ISR 4000 counterparts.

The license tiers are structured to support the growth in business needs enabling the customer to move from basic functionality at branch to full-functionality with the Cisco DNA Advantage and expanding that to include WAN Optimization and Analytics on the Cisco DNA Premier. This provides complete flexibility to move the same license across end-points based on growing network and security requirements, growth in bandwidth based on user and application growth at the sites as also the ability to change the management of the platform from on-prem to cloud or vice-versa.

Cisco DNA Licenses are supported for ASR 1000 platforms using the Cisco DNA Center, the controller and analytics platform at the heart of Cisco’s intent-based network. For more information on the Cisco DNA Center and supported platforms, please refer to https://www.cisco.com/site/us/en/products/networking/catalyst-center/index.html.

Cisco Smart Licensing

Cisco Smart Licensing is a flexible licensing model that provides you with an easier, faster, and more consistent way to purchase and manage software across the Cisco portfolio and across your organization. And it’s secure – you control what users can access. With Smart Licensing you get:

     Easy Activation: Smart Licensing establishes a pool of software licenses that can be used across the entire organization—no more PAKs (Product Activation Keys).

     Unified Management: My Cisco Entitlements (MCE) provides a complete view into all of your Cisco products and services in an easy-to-use portal, so you always know what you have and what you are using.

     License Flexibility: Your software is not node-locked to your hardware, so you can easily use and transfer licenses as needed.

Support for Cisco Software-Defined WAN

The ASR 1000 series is optimized for Cisco Software Defined WAN (SD-WAN). For enterprises, this means that business critical applications run faster, with more reliability and reduced Operational Expenditure (OpEx). Cisco SD-WAN achieves this by making all branches and Data Centers have the ability to monitor, control, move and report on streams of application data such as specific web (HTTP) traffic for example. The ASR 1000 series has deep packet inspection capability and can accurately identify and control thousands of different applications including custom in-house enterprise applications.

The entire SD-WAN implementation on the ASR 1000 is implemented by managing the end device either from the Cloud or On-Premise through ascending levels of throughput based licenses. All licenses that support Cisco SD-WAN, whether On-Premise or on Cloud are all enabled using Subscription Licenses. These subscription licenses enable all customers to seamlessly transition between On-Premise and Cloud management as needed. The license tiers are structured to support the growth in business needs through simple subscriptions that help simplify the journey to intent-based networking for the WAN.

Cisco SD-WAN subscriptions are aligned across three subscription licenses of Cisco DNA Essentials, Cisco DNA Advantage and Cisco DNA Premier, each expanding functionally. The Cisco DNA Essentials on ISR 1000 and ISR 4000 covers all types of connectivity and router life cycle management, support for Network and application visibility coupled with basic premise and transport security. ASR 1000 series support two Cisco DNA tiers, Cisco DNA Advantage and Cisco DNA Premier. The Cisco DNA Advantage provides for Advanced WAN topologies, Application aware policies supported by enhanced network security. The Cisco DNA Premier provides for Cloud connectivity with unlimited segmentation, Advanced Application optimization and Network Analytics, secured by advanced threat protection.
