In the ASR1001 and ASR 1002-X, 8 GB is required for the software redundancy implementation.

Q. What are the key new items introduced with the Cisco ASR 1001 chassis compared to the other ASR 1000 Series routers?
A. The Cisco ASR 1001 Series introduces the concept of the integrated daughter card (IDC) which is a non-field upgradeable component on the ASR 1001 chassis to provide enhanced (I/O) capabilities. At the time of first customer ship (FCS), the Cisco ASR 1001 comes in 3 different versions: The ASR 1001 base chassis (Part number ASR1001), the ASR1001-2XOC3POS chassis with an integrated daughter card with 2 OC3 POS ports and the ASR1001-4XT3 with an integrated daughter card with 4 T3 ports. The second phase of the ASR 1001 launched a further 3 chassis: the ASR1001-HDD with built in 160GB hard drive; the ASR1001-4X1GE with an integrated daughter card providing 4 1GE ports; and the ASR1001-8XCHT1E1 with an integrated daughter card providing 8 channelized T1/E1 ports. Further, the Cisco ASR 1001 is the first chassis of the Cisco ASR 1000 Series which implements the software activation which is the same software activation concept as seen on other Cisco offerings, e.g. on the Cisco ISR G2 router Series. At FCS, 2 different type of licenses will be enforced via software activation. Firstly, the feature sets offered through the IP Base (K9 and non-K9), Advanced IP Services (K9 and non-K9) and Advanced Enterprise Services (K9 and non-K9). Secondly, the upgrade from the default performance of 2.5-Gbps to 5-Gbps can be accomplished via a software activated performance upgrade license (part number to be used at time of ordering any of the three ASR1001 chassis for the performance upgrade to 5-Gbps is FLS-ASR1001-5G). Other functionality such as firewall, encryption is planned to be software activated on the ASR 1001 in the future.
Q. What are the key new items introduced with the Cisco ASR 1002-X chassis compared to the other ASR 1000 Series routers?
A. The Cisco ASR 1002-X Series has 6 built-in GE ports. Further, the Cisco ASR 100-X implements the software activation which is the same software activation concept as seen on ASR 1001 and other Cisco offerings, e.g. on the Cisco ISR G2 router Series. The system performances can be set at 5-Gbps (default), 10-Gbps, 20-Gbps, and 36-Gbps, via software activation.
Q. What are the major differences between the Cisco ASR 1013 and ASR 1006?
A. The Cisco ASR 1013 has expanded I/O capacity of up to six I/O slots (24 half-height-SPAs), and a throughput support capabililty of 360 Gbps in total. This model is designed to support either 4x40-Gbps slots or 2x100-Gbps slots in the future. The Cisco ASR 1013 has four power supplies (AC or DC) organized in two redundant pairs. Field-replaceable unit (FRU) placement is also different on the Cisco ASR 1013. From the bottom up, there are three SIP slots, a route processor slot, an Embedded Services Processor (ESP) slot, another ESP slot, a route processor slot, and then another three SIP slots.

Cisco IOS XE Software

Q. What is Cisco IOS XE Software?
A. Cisco IOS XE Software is part of the Cisco IOS Software Family. Cisco IOS XE Software is a modular software built on a Linux kernel and based on Cisco IOS Software Release 12.2SR for Cisco IOS XE 2.1 through 2.6 and IOS 15S starting with IOS XE 3.1S.
Q. What is the Cisco IOS XE architecture?
A. The Cisco IOS XE operating system design is based on a distributed control plane. A separate control processor is included on each major component of the Cisco ASR 1000 Series. For example the route processor, ESP, and SIP have their own processors, which are responsible for managing the local resources, data structures, and so on that component. In addition, the route processor controls other components of the system such as power entry modules, midplane ID, and so on, using dedicated signals. Certain SPAs contain processors that communicate using interprocess communication (IPC) and that have loadable software. In addition, the Cisco QuantumFlow Processor on the ESP contains multiple, parallel processors running data-plane and control-plane software. The communication between the control processors does not expose the details of the components' internal design, in order to allow easier evolution of the components.
Q. Is Cisco IOS XE Software the next-generation replacement of Cisco IOS Software?
A. No. Cisco IOS XE Software is an addition to the Cisco IOS Software Family and is designed to enable the Cisco ASR 1000 Series to meet the scalability, availability, and service flexibility requirements for the next-generation network edge, encompassing enterprise, broadband aggregation, high-end managed CPE, and service provider edge applications.
Q. Can different Cisco IOS Software releases operate in the same network with the Cisco IOS XE Software releases?
A. Yes, Cisco took special care to preserve the interoperability.
Q. Does Cisco IOS XE Software use the same command-line interface (CLI) as Cisco IOS Software?
A. Cisco IOS XE Software uses the Cisco IOS Software CLI. It has additional commands to accommodate the Cisco IOS XE operating system infrastructure and capabilities of the Cisco ASR 1000 Series.
Q. What is the frequency of Cisco IOS XE Software releases?
A. Cisco introduced a new software release strategy with the introduction of the Cisco IOS XE operating system. This strategy accelerates the availability of software and hardware features by introducing a time-based release scheme. Every four months a new Cisco IOS XE Software Release will be made available with new features. Details of the new software release strategy are discussed in the product bulletin, which can be found at http://www.cisco.com/go/asr1000.
Q. What Cisco IOS XE Software images are being offered for the Cisco ASR 1000 Series?
A. The images are being referred to as consolidated packages. For the Cisco IOS XE Software, the consolidated packages have been simplified into four options that run on the route processor. Refer to Table 8 for the details about each image. The Cisco ASR RP1 and RP2 consolidated packages are supported on the RP1 and RP2 route processor respectively. The Cisco ASR 1001 and ASR 1002-X chassis both have a route processor integrated and runs ASR1001, ASR 1002-X RP specific consolidated packages, respectively. Further, with the introduction of the software activation for license enforcement on the Cisco ASR 1001 and ASR 1002-X chassis, ASR 1001 and ASR 1002-X each supports two "universal" consolidated packages, the Cisco ASR 1001 or ASR 1002-X IOS XE UNIVERSAL and Cisco ASR1001 or ASR 1002-X IOS XE - NO PAYLOAD ENCRYPTION UNIVERSAL consolidated package. The respective functionalities as delivered in IP Base (K9 and no-K9), Advanced IP Services (K9 and non-K9) and Advanced Enterprise Services (K9 and non-K9) are enforced via software licenses. For more details on the software activation on the Cisco ASR 1001 and ASR 1002-X, please refer to the Cisco ASR 1000 Software Activation Product Bulletin which covers the details of software activation on the Cisco ASR 1001 and ASR 1002-X chassis.

The Cisco ASR 1000 Series allows you to upgrade or downgrade SIP and SPA software sub-packages without operationally affecting other SIP and SPA functions within the same chassis.
Q. How can I deploy the value-added features on the Cisco ASR 1000 Series routers?
A. First, select a Cisco IOS XE Software consolidated package that supports the required features. Second, check whether this feature requires a software license. If it does, in addition to the Cisco IOS XE consolidated package, you must purchase the required license. The consolidated package and license are linked to the chassis, so if you upgrade from one route processor to another or from one ESP to another, you do not need to purchase a new consolidated package or feature license. The part numbers for the licenses and consolidated packages that are available at first customer shipment (FCS) are listed in the Ordering Information section. Note that in the future, more licenses will be introduced. With Cisco ASR 1001 and ASR 1002-X system performances are now enforced via software activation. For more details on the software activation on the Cisco ASR 1001 and ASR 1002-X, please refer to the Cisco ASR 1000 Software Activation Product Bulletin which covers the details of software activation on the Cisco ASR 1001 and ASR 1002-X chassis. For details on ordering, refer to the Ordering Guide product bulletin posted on http://www.cisco.com/go/asr1000.
Q. What kind of software modularity is offered with Cisco IOS XE Software?
A. Each consolidated package for the Cisco ASR 1000 Series consists of seven different sub-packages. The sub-packages are designed to maximize the In-Service Software Upgrade (ISSU) capability. Table 9 describes the functionality of each of the seven sub-packages.
