I wanted to use the software supervisor redundancy one some ASR1002's I deployed recently, but couldn't due to the use of PKI certificate authentication for IPsec. probably a good thing I couldn't do it now...

But then again, the ASR1002's RP is a fixed unit inside the chassis and can't be upgraded. I'd also suggest not enabling the software redundancy for IOS. This essentially uses up all available memory and will eventually cause the router to crash and reboot. Since we buy the ASR1002's and operate them in physically redundant chassis' doing the same thing, we can do without the software redundancy. I expect the ASR1004's to have the same problem, which is why we never buy them and either go for the ASR1002 or ASR1006 or higher. The ASR1006 and above will offer hardware-based control plane redundancy. Hope this helps.
