ISSU MPLS Clients
MPLS applications can be upgraded using the In Service Software Upgrade (ISSU) process and the enhanced Fast Software Upgrade (eFSU) process. Thus, MPLS applications are considered ISSU's MPLS clients. The ISSU process allows Cisco IOS software at the router level to be updated or otherwise modified while packet forwarding continues. At the line-card level , the eFSU process minimizes line-card downtime during such upgrades to between 30 and 90 seconds, by loading the new line-card image before the ISSU switchover occurs from the active to the standby Route Processor (RP).

Your software release may not support all the features documented in this module. For the latest feature information and caveats, see the release notes for your platform and software release. To find information about the features documented in this module, and to see a list of the releases in which each feature is supported, see the Feature Information Table at the end of this document.
Use Cisco Feature Navigator to find information about platform support and Cisco software image support. To access Cisco Feature Navigator, go to www.cisco.com/go/cfn. An account on Cisco.com is not required.
Prerequisites for ISSU MPLS Clients
Before you perform an upgrade, you need to verify that the clients you are concerned about are compatible with the intended switchover. Use the commands listed in the Verifying the ISSU Process for an MPLS Client to determine compatibility.
The success performance of some clients in the upgraded network will depend upon their compatibility with other clients as described in the table below.
| Table 1 | MPLS Client Interdependencies |
Restrictions for ISSU MPLS Clients
Because line cards in the Cisco series 7600 routers do not support Minimum Disruption Restart (MDR), they reset when eFSU is performed. That causes IGP adjacencies to flap (adjacent routes are advertised as unavailable and then available again in quick sequence), bringing down the MPLS traffic engineering (TE) tunnels. Therefore, after an eFSU operation, it may take as long as two minutes for TE tunnels to be resignaled and reestablished.
For this reason, we recommend that before you begin eFSU you first disable Resource Reservation Protocol Graceful Restart (RSVP GR) full mode. If this mode is not disabled, RSVP can inadvertently delay the reestablishment of TE tunnels while it waits for the recovery of the preexisting TE tunnel state.
To see how long each line card will be placed out of service during the eFSU process, use the show issu outage slot all command as described in the Determining Impending Line-Card Outage Periods During an ISSU.
Information About ISSU MPLS Clients
This section provides information about upgrading MPLS-related applications through ISSU and eFSU. Those MPLS applications are considered ISSU's MPLS "clients."
For information on the entire ISSU and eFSU procedure, please see the document, Cisco IOS In Service Software Upgrade and Enhanced Fast Software Upgrade Process.
For information specific to eFSU on the Cisco 7600 series router, please refer to the "ISSU and eFSU on Cisco 7600 Series Routers" chapter in the Cisco 7600 Series Router Cisco IOS Software Configuration Guide, Release 12.2SR.

How to Verify that an MPLS Client Can Support an In Service Software Upgrade
- Determining Impending Line-Card Outage Periods During an ISSU
- Verifying the ISSU Process for an MPLS Client
Determining Impending Line-Card Outage Periods During an ISSU
Perform this task to determining impending line-card outage periods during an ISSU.
During an ISSU, the router preloads line-card software onto line cards that support enhanced Fast Service Upgrade (eFSU). Then, when the switchover occurs between active and standby processors, the line cards that support eFSU are restarted with the new, preloaded software, which helps to minimize outage time during the upgrade. Line cards that do not support eFSU undergo a hard reset at switchover, and the software image is loaded after the line card is restarted.
![]() Note |
For the complete task sequence that accomplishes ISSU and eFSU, please see the document entitled, Cisco IOS In Service Software Upgrade and Enhanced Fast Software Upgrade Process. |
Ensure that you have successfully loaded new Cisco IOS software onto the standby processor as described in Cisco IOS In Service Software Upgrade and Enhanced Fast Software Upgrade Process.
DETAILED STEPS
Examples
The following is sample output from the show issu outagecommand:
Router# show issu outage slot all
Slot # Card Type MDR Mode Max Outage Time
------ ------------------------------------- ----------- ---------------
1 CEF720 24 port 1000mb SFP WARM_RELOAD 300 secs
2 1-subslot SPA Interface Processor-600 WARM_RELOAD 300 secs
3 4-subslot SPA Interface Processor-400 WARM_RELOAD 300 secs
4 2+4 port GE-WAN RELOAD 360 secs
The column "Max Outage Time" shows the longest downtime that should be expected for each of the four listed line card types:
![]() Note |
When there is no eFSU to be performed, and only ISSU will result from the use of the issu runversioncommand, the MDR Mode column in this display shows "NSF_RELOAD" for each line card, to indicate that the line card will not be restarted during the upgrade and therefore will not experience any downtime. |
If you happen to enter the show issu outagecommand outside of the ISSU command sequence, the MDR Mode column in this display shows "INVALID".
Verifying the ISSU Process for an MPLS Client
Perform this task to verify that a particular MPLS client can be upgraded successfully during a particular ISSU session. The commands in this task also can be used to display other details about the ISSU MPLS clients, and should be entered in the order described.
DETAILED STEPS
Configuration Examples for ISSU MPLS Clients
To examine any ISSU client, you must specify its unique client ID when entering the show issu sessions command. If you do not already know that client ID, enter the show issu clientscommand in user EXEC or privileged EXEC mode. Each ISSU client on the network will then be listed, with its client ID and client name on the same line, as shown in the following example:

The first command shows you whether the TE client's old and new software versions are compatible, and therefore are able to make use of the ISSU opportunity:
Router# show issu sessions 2053
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Client_ID = 2053, Entity_ID = 1 :
*** Session_ID = 84, Session_Name = RSVP HA Session :
Peer Peer Negotiate Negotiated Cap Msg Session
UniqueID Sid Role Result GroupID GroupID Signature
22 94 PRIMARY COMPATIBLE 1 1 0
(no policy)
Negotiation Session Info for This Message Session:
Nego_Session_ID = 84
Nego_Session_Name = RSVP HA Session
Transport_Mtu = 1392
Now you can take the session ID displayed in the previous command's output and enter it into the next command, in order to see the negotiated message version:
Router# show issu negotiated version 84
Session_ID = 84 :
Message_Type = 1, Negotiated_Version = 2, Message_MTU = 1024
Next you can enter the same session ID into the following command to display the capability negotiation result:
Router# show issu negotiated capability 84
Session_ID = 84 :
Cap_Type = 0, Cap_Result = 1 No cap value assigned
Finally to see which message types and versions are supported by this particular client, you enter the client ID into the following command:
Router# show issu message types 2053
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Client_ID = 2053, Entity_ID = 1 :
Message_Type = 1, Version_Range = 1 ~ 2
Message_Ver = 1, Message_Mtu = 1024
Message_Ver = 2, Message_Mtu = 1024

12.2(28)SB 12.2(33) SRB-1 |
MPLS applications can be upgrading using the In Service Software Upgrade (ISSU) process and the enhanced Fast Software Upgrade (eFSU) process. Thus, MPLS applications are considered ISSU's MPLS clients. The ISSU process allows Cisco IOS software at the router level to be updated or otherwise modified while packet forwarding continues. At the line-card level , the eFSU process minimizes line-card downtime during such upgrades to between 30 and 90 seconds, by loading the new line-card image before the ISSU switchover occurs from the active to the standby Route Processor (RP). In 12.2(28)SB, the ISSU feature was introduced. In 12.2(33)SRB-1, the LSPV Push and TE clients and the eFSU functionality were added. The following commands were introduced or modified: show issu clients, show issu entities, show issu message types, show issu negotiated, show issu outage, show issu sessions. |
