Introduction to the Cisco ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services Router
Management and Security
In addition to the following management and security features, the router has administrative options,
such as assigning Task IDs, that control who can perform router tasks.

Cisco IOS XR Software manageability—This feature provides industry-standard management
interfaces, including a modular CLI, SNMP, and native XML interfaces.
Command-Line Interface (CLI)—CLI is a user interface for monitoring and maintaining the router
and also for configuring basic router features.
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)—SNMP is an application-layer protocol that
facilitates management information exchange between network devices.
Management Information Bases (MIBs)—MIBs are databases of objects that can be managed on a
device. MIBs include the following: IP-MIB (RFC4293), CISCO-BULK-FILE-MIB,
CISCO-CONFIG-COPY-MIB, CISCO-CONFIG-MAN-MIB, CISCO-ENHANCED-IMAGE-MIB,
CISCO-ENHANCED-MEMORY-POOL-MIB, CISCO-ENTITY-FRU-CONTROL-MIB,
CISCO-ENTITY-SENSOR-MIB, ENTITY-MIB, CISCO-ENTITY-ASSET-MIB,
ENTITY-STATE-MIB, ENTITY-SENSOR-MIB, CISCO-ENTITY-ALARM-MIB,
CISCO-FLASH-MIB, CISCO-IF-EXTENSION-MIB, CISCO-MEMORY-POOL-MIB,
CISCO-RF-MIB (1:1 RP Card), CISCO-SYSLOG-MIB, EVENT-MIB, IF-MIB as well as
RFC1213-MIB, SNMP-COMMUNITY-MIB, SNMP-FRAMEWORK-MIB,
SNMP-NOTIFICATION-MIB, SNMP-TARGET-MIB, IPv6-MIB, BRIDGE-MIB,
DOT3-OAM-MIB, CISCO-IETF-PW-MIB, CISCO-CLASS-BASED-QOS-MIB,
ETHERLIKE-MIB, BGP4-MIB Including Cisco extensions, MPLS TE STD MIB, TE-FRR-MIB,
and CISCO-IETF-IPMROUTE-MIB, IEEE-8021-CFM-MIB, DOT3-OAM-MIB.
Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP)—TFTP allows files to be transferred from one computer to
another over a network, usually without the use of client authentication (for example, username and
password).
Network Time Protocol (NTP)—NTP synchronizes timekeeping among a set of distributed time
servers.
Cisco Active Network Abstraction (ANA)—Cisco ANA is a flexible, vendor-neutral network
resource-management solution for a multitechnology, multiservice network environment. Operating
between the network and the operations-support-system (OSS) layer, Cisco ANA aggregates virtual
network elements (VNEs) into a software-based virtual network, much as real network elements
create the real-world network. Cisco ANA dynamically discovers network components and tracks
the status of network elements in near real time. Cisco ANA offers service providers:
Simplified integration of OSS applications with network information
–
Flexible common infrastructure for managing network resources
–
Consistent procedures and interfaces for all network elements
–
Cisco IOS XR Software—Provides comprehensive network security features as follows:
