High Availability
The router is intended for use in Enterprise networks that require high-availability. It is designed to
provide high MTBF (Mean Time Between Failures) and low MTTR (Mean Time To Resolve) rates. This
minimizes outages or and maximizes availability. The router achieves this using the following:
•
•
•
•
System Configurations
The router runs Cisco IOS XR Software on the following standalone chassis types, available in AC or
DC versions:

MPLS TE Preferred Path: Preferred tunnel path functions let you map pseudowires to specific TE
tunnels. Attachment circuits are cross-connected to specific MPLS TE tunnel interfaces instead of
remote provider-edge router IP addresses (reachable using Interior Gateway Protocol [IGP] or Label
Distribution Protocol [LDP]).

during a brief outage of the control plane through signaling and routing protocol
implementations for graceful restart extensions as standardized by the IETF, NSF requires
neighboring nodes to be NSF-aware.
