Cisco ASR 9010 Router, Cisco ASR 9006 Router, and Cisco ASR 9904 Router. In the Cisco ASR 9922 Router and Cisco ASR 9912 Router, the route processor functions are on the RP card. whereas the switch fabric is on the FC card. The RSP/RP card also provides shared resources for backplane Ethernet, timing, and chassis control.
In the Cisco ASR 9922 Router and Cisco ASR 9912 Router, the switch fabric element has been moved to dedicated FC cards that connect to the backplanes alongside the RP cards. The switch fabric is capable of delivering 550-Gbps per line card slot.
Multicast traffic is replicated in the switch fabric. For multicast (including unicast floods), the Cisco ASR 9000 Series Routers replicate the packet as necessary at the divergence points inside the system, so that the multicast packets can replicate efficiently without having to burden any particular path with multiple copies of the same packet.
Route Processor Functions The Route Processor performs the ordinary chassis management functions. The Cisco ASR 9000 Series Routers run Cisco IOS XR software, so the Route Processor runs the centralized portions of the software for chassis control and management. Secondary functions of the Route Processor include boot media, system timing (frequency and time of date) synchronization, precision clock synchronization, backplane Ethernet communication, and power control (through a separate CAN bus controller network).

Both fan trays are required for normal system operation for the Cisco ASR 9010 Router and Note Cisco ASR 9006 Router. If both fan trays in the router are pulled out or are not installed, a critical alarm is raised.
Cisco ASR 9904 Router Fan Tray The Cisco ASR 9904 Router contains a single fan tray. If a fan tray fails, it is possible to swap a single fan tray assembly while the system is operational. Replace the missing fan tray within 4 minutes.
Cisco ASR 9922 Router and Cisco ASR 9912 Router Fan Trays The Cisco ASR 9922 Router contains four fan trays, and the Cisco ASR 9912 Router contains three fan trays for redundancy.

When the system reaches critical operating temperature points, it triggers a shutdown sequence of the system. System Management and Configuration The Cisco IOS XR Software on the Cisco ASR 9000 Series Routers provides the system manageability interfaces: CLI, XML, and SNMP. Cisco IOS XR Software The Cisco ASR 9000 Series Routers run Cisco IOS XR Software and use the manageability architecture of that operating system, which includes CLI, XML, and SNMP.
The system supports CWI, a graphical craft tool for performance monitoring, configuration editing, and configuration rollback. CWI is embedded with Cisco IOS XR software and can be downloaded through the HTTP protocol. A user can use CWI to edit the router configuration file, create user-defined applications, and open Telnet/SSH application windows to provide CLI access.

Cisco ASR 9000 Series Routers. Features Overview The Cisco ASR 9000 Series Routers are designed to have high Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF) and low Mean Time To Resolve (MTTR) rates, thus providing a reliable platform that minimizes outages or downtime and maximizes availability.
High Availability Router Operations Fabric Switchover In the Cisco ASR 9010 Router, Cisco ASR 9006 Router, and Cisco ASR 9904 Router, the RSP card makes up most of the fabric. The fabric is configured in an “active/active” configuration model, which allows the traffic load to be distributed across both RSP cards.
Power Supply Redundancy The Cisco ASR 9000 Series Routers are configured such that a power module failure or its subsequent replacement does not cause a significant outage. A power supply failure or over/under voltage at the output of a power module is detected, and an alarm raised.
3000 W. For Cisco ASR 9010 Routers, the slot location of a module in the power trays is irrelevant as long as the two power trays have an equal number of modules installed (in case one tray should fail) (see Figure 3-1).
18,000W AC systems 6+6 max power redundancy redundancy The Cisco ASR 9010 Router, Cisco ASR 9922 Router, and Cisco ASR 9912 Router are capable of Note operating with power modules installed in only one of their power trays. However, such a configuration does not provide any redundancy.
The Cisco ASR 9000 Series Routers have two available DC power modules, a 2100 W module and a 1500 W module. Both types of power modules can be used in a single chassis. See Appendix A, “Technical Specifications,”...
