Cellular Boot Time Improvements

Cellular boot time improvements

Cellular boot time improvements are performance enhancements that

  • reduce the time required for cellular interfaces to become operational after router startup

  • decrease cellular link up-time by approximately 20% compared to previous releases, and

  • enable faster traffic passing capabilities following system initialization.

Performance improvements

In previous releases, the cellular interface was taking approximately two and a half minutes to come up and pass traffic after the router booted up. The cellular link up-time has been improved by approximately 20% in IOS-XE release 17.9.1.
