Feature Description

System Monitoring

SNMP Dying Gasp for IPv4 and IPv6

You can configure the SNMP agent to generate IPv4 and IPv6 SNMP traps when the router triggers a message to the Network Management System (NMS) that a node is going down. Such a message, known as a dying gasp event, is sent when a power failure occurs or the input power source is disconnected.

Interface and Hardware Component

VLAN Subinterface as Source for Traffic Mirroring

You can now configure the VLAN subinterface as a source for traffic mirroring for:

  • Traffic ingressing at the interface

  • Traffic egressing at the interface

  • Traffic egressing and ingressing at the same interface

You could configure mirror functionality only at the main interface level in earlier releases.

Ethernet Link OAM on Physical Interface— (802.3ah) Link Monitoring and Remote Loopback

Ethernet link OAM operates on a single, physical link and it can be configured to monitor either side or both sides of that link. Ethernet OAM supports:

Note

 

Not supported on N540-24Q8L2DD-SYS variant.

L2VPN and Ethernet Services

MAC Loop Prevention

This feature helps reduce network congestion and avoid traffic loss by shutting down a port after it reaches the configured number of MAC moves within the specified move interval. You can configure this feature at the bridge-domain level using the mac secure command.

This feature is now supported on routers that operate in native and compatibility modes.

Segment Routing

SRv6: Ultimate Segment Decapsulation (USD) behavior

This feature supports the Ultimate Segment Decapsulation (USD) variant on SRv6 endpoint nodes using full-length SIDs. Previously, USD variant was supported on SRv6 endpoint nodes using using Micro SIDs (uSIDs).

The USD variant enables interworking with SRv6 underlay headend nodes that push SIDs using H.Encaps (SR Headend Behavior with Encapsulation in an SRv6 Policy) or H.Encaps.Red (H.Encaps with reduced Encapsulation) instead of H.Insert (SR Headend with insertion of an SRv6 Policy) or H.Insert.Red (H.Insert with reduced insertion).

The USD variant enables interworking with SRv6 underlay headend nodes that push SIDs using H.Encaps (SR Headend Behavior with Encapsulation in an SRv6 Policy) or H.Encaps.Red (H.Encaps with reduced Encapsulation) instead of H.Insert (SR Headend with insertion of an SRv6 Policy) or H.Insert.Red (H.Insert with reduced insertion).

Flexible Algorithm to Exclude SRLGs for OSPF

You can now configure the flexible algorithm to exclude any link belonging to the Shared Risk Link Groups (SRLGs) from the path computation for OSPF. The ability to exclude the at-risk links ensures that the rest of the links in the network remain unaffected.

Flexible Algorithm Prefix-SID Redistribution for External Route Propagation

This feature enables the propagation of flexible algorithm prefix-SIDs and their algo-specific metric from other domains into OSPF, and from OSPF to other domains.

The show route command has been modified to include additional attributes to indicate the external routes.

Optimal Utilization of ECMP FEC Resources

BGP-SR multipath ECMP FEC optimization is enhanced to support 32k BGP-LU prefixes (from the earlier 4k BGP-LU prefixes) on multipath with the same outgoing label. This results in the consumption of lesser ECMP FEC resources, thus avoiding out-of-resource (OOR) situations for your router.

In earlier releases, all 4k BGP-LU prefixes consumed all the 4k ECMP FEC resources.

Use the hw-module fib mpls bgp-sr lsr-optimized command to enable BGP-SR multipath ECMP FEC optimization.

BGP

BGP-LU Multipath PIC with Auto Protection

BGP-LU multipath prefix independent convergence (PIC) supports auto protection. Each active path has a backup path, ensuring almost immediate restoration of multicast traffic when a path fails.

In earlier releases, path failures led to traffic drops in the absence of auto protection.

Note

 

Not supported on N540-24Q8L2DD-SYS variant.

Replace BGP AS Path with Custom Values

You can now configure to replace the AS Path in BGP with custom values, based on route policy. While selecting BGP best path, a shorter AS Path makes the selection process simple and flexible.

This feature introduces the following command:

  • replace as-path all

RIPng

RIPng (RIP next generation) is a RIPv2 extension that supports IPv6 which is the next-generation Internet Protocol. RIPng provides routing functionalities for an IPv6-based network. RIPng functions as an interior gateway protocol (IGP) in moderate-sized autonomous systems. RIPng uses Bellman-Ford distance-vector algorithm to determine the best route to an IPv6 destination. RIP enhancements for IPv6 include support for IPv6 addresses and prefixes; and the use of the all-RIP-devices multicast group address FF02::9 as the destination address for RIP update messages.

Programmability

New Unified Models

Unified models are CLI-based YANG models that are designed to replace the native schema-based models. This releaes introduces new unified models.

You can access the new unified models from the Github repository.

Modular QoS

Setting MPLS Experimental Bits on Inner MPLS Headers to Classify Traffic

For MPLS over GRE scenarios that tunnel MPLS traffic over non-MPLS networks across CE devices, you can now perform QoS classification for specific traffic or applications by setting MPLS EXP bit field values in the inner MPLS header.

In earlier releases, you could perform QoS classification only in the outer GRE IP header using DiffServ Code Point (DSCP) or IP precedence bits that helped you achieve the required line rate minus the granularity.

This feature introduces the hw-module profile qos gre-exp-classification-enable command.

Multicast

Flexible Algorithm for Multicast VPN profiles

Flexible Algorithm is now available for the following profiles:

  • Profile 12: Default MDT - MLDP - P2MP - BGP-AD - BGP C-Mcast Signaling

  • Profile 14: Partitioned MDT - MLDP P2MP - BGP-AD - BGP C-Mcast Signaling

The following features are supported on N540-24Q8L2DD-SYS variant.

Feature Description

System Setup and Software Installation

IOS XR Configuration File in Golden ISO (GISO)

GISO is a customized image with the standard functional components and additional configuration files. This feature extracts the IOS XR configuration file in GISO and automates the updating of configuration files when the router is reloaded with the new GISO.

This feature introduces iso-config [ignore | replace] keywords to the install replace and install package replace commands.

Automatic Bridging of Bug Fix RPMs

This feature enables an easy one-step, no prompt upgrade, or downgrade, based on GISO. This removes the dependency on having to manually install the bridging bug fix RPMs before performing an upgrade or a downgrade.

The following features are supported on N540-6Z14S-SYS-D variant.

Feature Description

Network Synchronization

Synchronous Ethernet with ESMC and SSM on N540-6Z14S-SYS-D

In this release, the following Cisco NCS 540 router variant supports Synchronous Ethernet with ESMC and SSM:

  • N540-6Z14S-SYS-D

SyncE provides synchronization signals transmitted over the Ethernet physical layer to downstream devices, while the Synchronization Status Message (SSM) indicates the quality level of the transmitting clock to the neighboring nodes, informing the nodes about the level of the network's reliability. Ethernet Synchronization Message Channel (ESMC) is the logical channel that uses an Ethernet PDU (protocol data unit) to exchange SSM information over the SyncE link.

PTP profiles

In this release, the following Cisco NCS 540 router variant supports Synchronous Ethernet with ESMC and SSM:

  • N540-6Z14S-SYS-D

PTP Profiles are specific selections of PTP configurations that allow organizations to achieve a performance that meets the requirement of a particular application. You can configure different PTP profiles for different applications, such as audio and media. PTP profiles ensure the application components stay in sync across multiple devices.

System Monitoring

SNMP Dying Gasp for IPv4 and IPv6

You can configure the SNMP agent to generate IPv4 and IPv6 SNMP traps when the router triggers a message to the Network Management System (NMS) that a node is going down. Such a message, known as a dying gasp event, is sent when a power failure occurs or the input power source is disconnected.

The following features are supported on N540X-6Z18G-SYS-A/D, N540X-8Z16G-SYS-A/D, and N540X-4Z14G2Q-A/D variants.

Feature Description

Important Information

Upgrading Cisco IOS XR Software

Cisco IOS XR Software is installed and activated from modular packages, allowing specific features or software patches to be installed, upgraded, or downgraded without affecting unrelated processes.

The upgrade document for N540-24Z8Q2C-SYS, N540X-ACC-SYS, and N540-ACC-SYS variants is available along with the software image in NCS540-docs-7.5.2.tar file.

The upgrade document for N540-28Z4C-SYS-A/D, N540-12Z20G-SYS-A/D, N540X-12Z16G-SYS-A/D, N540X-16Z4G8Q2C-A/D, N540-24Q8L2DD-SYS, N540-FH-AGG-SYS, and N540-FH-CSR-SYS variants are available along with the software image in NCS540l-docs-7.5.2.tar file.

The upgrade document for N540X-4Z14G2Q-A/D, N540X-8Z16G-SYS-A/D, and N540X-6Z18G-SYS-A/D variants is available along with the software image in NCS540l-aarch64-docs-7.5.2.tar file.


Note


Quad configurations will be lost when you perform a software downgrade on Cisco NCS 540 Routers that support quad configurations from IOS XR Release 7.5.1 onwards to a release prior to IOS XR Release 7.5.1 due to a non-backward compatibility change. The lost configuration can be applied manually after the downgrade.


Use user-class Option 'xr-config' Instead Of 'exr-config' To Provision ZTP

In Cisco IOS XR Release 7.3.1 and earlier, the system accepts the device sending user-class = "exr-config"; however starting Cisco IOS XR Release 7.3.2 and later, you must use only user-class = "xr-config".

In Cisco IOS XR Release 7.3.2 and later, use:

host cisco-rp0 {
   hardware ethernet e4:c7:22:be:10:ba;
   fixed-address 172.30.12.54;
   if exists user-class and option user-class = "iPXE" {
      filename = "http://172.30.0.22/boot.ipxe";
   } elsif exists user-class and option user-class = "xr-config" {
      filename = "http://172.30.0.22/scripts/cisco-rp0_ztp.sh";
   }
}
