- Cisco ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services Routers with Cisco ASR 9000 Enhanced Ethernet line cards as the location of Inter Chassis Links. Cisco ASR 9000 Ethernet Line Cards can co-exist in the Satellite nV System but cannot be used for Satellite ICLs and also with ISM/VSM. Also, only RSP3 is the supported Route processor for the Cisco ASR 9000 Series Routers.
These switches feed into an edge router, such as the Cisco ASR 9000 Series Router where more advanced Layer 2 and Layer 3 services are provisioned. The network topology depicted in the figure is called the Hub and Spoke network topology.
SFPs on the face plate of a single Cisco ASR 9000 Series line card. As a result, in order to utilize the full capacity of an Cisco ASR 9000 Series line card, it is necessary to physically separate out the ethernet ports, while maintaining logical management control.

(path length) from the host to the Satellite, and a tie-break of the chassis MAC for each host. Cisco IOS XR Software uses these parameters to calculate the priority, where each item is more important than any of the subsequent ones. This means that the subsequent parameters are only taken into account, if the higher-priority items are identical across the two hosts.
1 A satellite can be connected to only one Host in the Hub and Spoke topology model and can be connected to only two hosts in a Dual-homed network architecture. Cisco ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services Router nV System Configuration Guide, Release 5.3.x...
2 All the advanced Satellite nV network topologies are supported on the Cisco ASR9000v, Cisco ASR9000v-V2, and Cisco ASR 901 Satellite types. 3 On the 10 Gigabit Ethernet Cisco ASR 901 AC model, 10G ports for ICL or access port is not supported.

5 When Satellite ethernet bundle interfaces are configured on the access ports, the bundle wait timer needs to be configured to zero to get better convergence. 6 Cisco ASR 9000v has these limitations on the Layer 2 Fabric network topology: • The usable VLAN range is from 2 to 4093.
• Redundant inter-chassis links mode - In this mode, the link level redundancy between inter-chassis links are provided using a single link aggregation (LAG) bundle. Cisco ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services Router nV System Configuration Guide, Release 5.3.x...
Cisco IOS XR Software supports the co-existence of redundant and non-redundant ICL modes on the Note same nV satellite shelf (only for 9000v) from Cisco IOS XR Software Release 4.3.x onwards. If a satellite system is operating in redundant ICL mode, then you cannot configure link bundles of any form (with or without LACP) on the access ports of that same satellite switch.

Currently, there is no TLV in Layer 1 and Layer 2 channel for MTU to be exchanged from host to satellite. Hence, the host just hard codes it to 9212. In the case of Cisco ASR 901, nVFabric-GigE interface is created as it supports only 1 GigE ICL. But in Note the case of Cisco ASR 9000v, nVFabric-TenGigE interface is created irrespective of whether 1 GigE or 10GigE ICL is used.
The primary function of this feature is to support multiple satellites that are dual-homed to different but overlapping pairs of Cisco ASR 9000 Series Routers. Multiple redundancy groups are supported on all the advanced satellite network topologies, such as: •...
9 IPv4 and IPv6 protocols with and without L3VPNs. 10 Netflow, ACL, and routing protocols such as BGP, OSPF, ISIS. 11 Host QoS and QoS offload are supported. Cisco ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services Router nV System Configuration Guide, Release 5.3.x...
These are different use cases of satellite topologies with Satellite nV System access port bundles along with redundant ICL. Figure 8: Multiple Access Bundles over single ICL Bundle to Single Host Cisco ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services Router nV System Configuration Guide, Release 5.3.x...

Port Partitioning Port Partitioning The Cisco ASR 9000 Series Satellite system allows you to split or partition the satellite ethernet ports across multiple ICL interfaces. You can split the satellite ports between 4 ICLs in Cisco ASR 9000v satellite and 2 ICLs in Cisco ASR 901 satellite.
Satellite Ethernet interfaces. The maximum number of bundles supported by Cisco ASR 9000 Series Router is increased to 510. For more details on L2VPN features supported on the Cisco ASR 9000 Series Satellite System, see Cisco ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services Router L2VPN and Ethernet Services Configuration Guide.
A cluster of Cisco ASR 9000 Series Routers is supported along with the satellite mode. A single cluster system can act like one logical Cisco ASR 9000 Series Router host system for a group of satellite switches. A satellite switch can also have some ICLs connect to rack 0 and other ICLs connect to rack 1 of a cluster system.
Note Cisco ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services Router Hardware Installation Guide. All the SNMP features supported on the Cisco ASR 9000 Series router is supported for satellite. For more Note information, see Cisco ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services Router MIB Specification Guide.
The Satellite nV Ethernet interfaces support Ethernet Link OAM feature when ICL is physical interface. But the feature does not work for SE with bundle ICL. Cisco IOS XR Software also supports Ethernet Link OAM feature over Satellite Ethernet interfaces when the ICL is a bundle interface.
MEPs that are set on the satellite access ports are configured on the ASR9k host. For additional details on CFM configuration, refer to the topic "Ethernet CFM" in the Cisco ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services Router Interface and Hardware Component Configuration Guide CFM Performance Monitoring (PM) applies time-stamps or sequence numbers on CFM PM frames (PDUs), at the two MEPs (controller and responder) between which performance is being measured.

Cisco ASR 9000 Series Router package. The Cisco IOS XR software production SMU tool can be used to generate patches for the satellite image in the field to deliver bug fixes or minor enhancements without requiring a formal software upgrade.
The asr9k-asr9000v-nV-px.pie contains two sets of binaries, namely, the intermediate binaries and the final binaries. When a Satellite nV system running Cisco IOS XR Software prior to Cisco IOS XR Software Release 5.1.1 is upgraded to Cisco IOS XR Release 5.1.1, the satellite downloads the intermediate binaries and reloads as per the instructions of the operator.
For the satellite image upgrade to work, you must ensure that the management-plane CLI is not configured on the Cisco ASR 9000 Series Router . If it is configured, then you need to add this exception for each of the 10GigE interfaces, which are the satellite ICLs.

In addition, the offload feature is not backward image or device compatible. Hence, before enabling offload, all devices in the system need to be upgraded to Cisco IOS XR Software Release 5.2.2 and compatible satellite image binaries. Also, only the supported hardware needs to be included in the ring as a mixed mode is not supported.
As in the case of existing Satellite nV System architecture, the IGMP snooping protocol runs on the satellite hosts with full Cisco IOS XR Software feature parity even with offload. The joins received on the satellite access ports reach the active host and gets processed by the IGMP snoop module.

Thus the offload topology is a full active / active system. Figure 17: IGMP Join Programming (Access L2 and Core L2/BVI) Figure 18: Multicast Offload Data Flow Cisco ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services Router nV System Configuration Guide, Release 5.3.x...

The Satellite nV multicast offload feature has been designed and optimized specifically for an IPTV scenario where the Cisco ASR 9000 Series Satellite nV System replaces the traditional edge or aggregate router and switch solution. The Satellites feed multicast traffic from the Layer 2 or Layer 3 (through BVI) core to the Layer 2 access trunk links connecting DSLAMs which in turn terminate residential gateways and take care of subscriber aware processing, if any, as shown below.
• Cisco ASR 901 and Cisco ASR 903 satellite devices are not supported. Use of unsupported satellite hardware in an heterogeneous ring, chain, or cascade of satellites may not work as expected as intermediate unsupported satellite hardware does not participate in multicast packet backbone switching on the ring.
• The multicast offload solution is not supported on the Cisco ASR9000v and Cisco ASR9000v-V2 images prior to Cisco IOS XR Software Release 5.2.2. All the satellites have to be upgraded to Cisco IOS XR Software Release 5.2.2 for end to end seamless functionality.
