Release Notes for Cisco NCS 6000 Series Routers, IOS XR Release 7.6.1

The Cisco Network Convergence System (NCS) 6000 series router delivers outstanding network agility, packet optical convergence, and a system scale measured in petabits per second. It also facilitates the build-out of next-generation core to:

  • support elastic capacity at the lowest total ownership cost

  • deliver high-bandwidth mobile, video, and cloud services

Running the Cisco IOS XR operating system, Cisco's innovative virtualized operating environment, the Cisco NCS 6000 series router advances the concept of distributed routing and virtualization. With Cisco Virtualized IOS XR, the Cisco NCS 6000 series router brings new levels of programmability and virtualization to:

  • enhance application service offerings

  • increase provisioning speed

  • optimize network economics

The Cisco NCS 6000 series router is engineered for environmental efficiency, with the use of adaptable power consumption. The Cisco NCS 6000 series router is powered by the Cisco nPower Network Processor Units (NPU). These technologies aid the Cisco NCS 6000 series router to achieve the lowest carbon footprint in service provider routing.

The Cisco NCS 6008 router, part of the Cisco NCS 6000 series routers, is the next-generation core routing system that provides industry-leading 8 Tbps of full-duplex network bandwidth through single chassis with eight line cards per chassis.

The Cisco NCS 6008 router runs on Cisco IOS XR software with Linux as the underlying host operating system. A Kernel-based Virtual Machine (KVM) hypervisor provides a virtualized environment to independently run system administration and routing functions on separate virtual machines. This provision makes the new system versatile and robust, and provides immense flexibility for future expansion without the need for a complete system overhaul.

A multi-slice architecture of line cards enables the system to be configured in a mixed operating mode, simultaneously supporting traffic at 10 Gbps and 100 Gbps on slice-level granularity.

For a list of software caveats that apply to this Release, see the Caveats section. The caveats are updated for every release and are described at http://www.cisco.com.

Software Features Enhanced and Introduced

To learn about features introduced in other Cisco IOS XR releases, select the release from the Documentation Landing Page.

Feature Description

MPLS

Configure BFD and SRLG Diverse Path-Protection Under Named TE Tunnels

Instead of using number IDs, you can now use a string to name MPLS-TE tunnels while configuring Bidirectional Forwarding Detection (BFD) and Shared Risk Link Group (SRLG) diverse path protection.

Unlike number IDs, tunnel names are unique across all the routers in your network. This facilitates faster troubleshooting as you use the show mpls traffic-eng named-tunnels command to check that the BFD and SRLG configurations meet specified performance requirements.

Routing

BGP Flowspec on CSI Interfaces

A solution that uses BGP to advertise mitigation rules across BGP peer routers in case of a DDoS attack, BGP flowspec is now supported on Cross SDR Interconnect (CSI) Interfaces.

MPLS TE Preference for Tunnels

Limiting IS-IS to use only MPLS TE tunnels is useful for network topologies when the platforms have resource constraints that limit the number of mixed ECMP routes.

You can now configure the MPLS TE traffic for equal-cost multipath (ECMP) such that it flows only through TE tunnels. This is useful in scenarios where the hardware has resource constraints that limit the number of mixed ECMP routes.

In earlier releases, IS-IS installed multiple ECMPs for a route in the Routing Information Base (RIB) through TE tunnels and physical interfaces by default.

This feature introduces the following command:

mpls traffic-eng tunnel preferred

System Management

MPLS Entropy Label Decapsulation on Egress CSI Interfaces

MPLS entropy labels improve load balancing across MPLS networks. With entopy label encapulation (on ingress router) and decapsulation (on egress router), there's no need for deep packet inspections on transit routers. Such inspections would've led to inefficient load-balancing.

MPLS entropy label decapsulation is now supported over egress Cross SDR Interconnect Interfaces (CSI).

Telemetry

gNMI Dial-Out via Tunnel Service

This feature uses the tunnel service to allow the router (tunnel client) to dial out to a collector (tunnel server). After the session is established, the server-client switch directions where a server can act as a client to request gNMI services without altering the gNMI semantics. With this feature, the management software automatically learns when a new device is introduced in the network.

This feature introduces the keyword tunnel to the grpc command.

Caveats

There are no caveats in this release.

Minimum Firmware Requirement

The following table provides the procedures and resources for minimum firmware requirements:

After completing an Return Material Authorization (RMA), upgrade the firmware as per the matrix in this link, which also links to PDF copies of the IOS XR Firmware Upgrade Guides

http://www.cisco.com/web/Cisco_IOS_XR_Software/index.html

For the upgrade procedure, see the Performing System Upgrade and Installing Feature Packages chapter of the Cisco NCS 6008 System Setup and Software Installation Guide

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/ps13132/tsd_products_support_series_home.html

Other Important Information

  • To uniquely identify a line card as a Cisco device, all Cisco IOS XR supported platforms are shipped with a non-tamper-able Trust Anchor Module (TAM) in the hardware. The Cisco Trust Anchor module (TAm) helps verify that Cisco hardware is authentic and provides additional security services. This feature is supported from Cisco IOS XR Release 7.1.x on Cisco NCS 6000 platform.

  • From Release 6.0, the onePK toolkit is not supported.

  • Country-specific laws, regulations, and licenses—In certain countries, use of these products may be prohibited and subject to laws, regulations, or licenses, including requirements applicable to the use of the products under telecommunications and other laws and regulations; customers must comply with all such applicable laws in the countries in which they intend to use the products.

  • BFD limitation—If the current PPS (packets per second) is more than 7000 packets per line card (LC) then on upgrading the Cisco IOS XR software to release 5.2.5 or later the BFD sessions may shut down. You can avoid this scenario by adjusting the PPS per LC so that the load on a LC does not exceed more than 7000 PPS.

    To know the current load (PPS value), use show bfd summary command. Use the bfd address-family ipv4 minimum-interval command to configure BFD timer.

  • Field replacable unit (FRU) removal—For all card removal and replacement (including fabric cards, line cards, fan controller, and RP) follow the instructions provided by Cisco to avoid impact to traffic. See the Cisco Network Convergence System 6000 Series Routers Hardware Installation Guide for procedures.

  • Exceeding Cisco testing—If you intend to test beyond the combined maximum configuration tested and published by Cisco, contact your Cisco Technical Support representative to discuss how to engineer a large-scale configuration for your purpose.

    Production Software Maintenance Updates (SMUs)

    A production SMU is a SMU that is formally requested, developed, tested, and released. Production SMUs are intended for use in a live network environment and are formally supported by the Cisco TAC and the relevant development teams. Software bugs identified through software recommendations or Bug Search Tools are not a basis for production SMU requests.

    For information on production SMU types, refer the Production SMU Types section of the IOS XR Software Maintenance Updates (SMUs) guide.
