The ASR-920-12CZ-A comes with 6 of the 12 1Gb ports enabled, no need for the 6 port license if you need less than 6 ports.
For BGP you need the Metro IP Access License http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/collateral/routers/asr-920-series-aggregation-services-router/datasheet-c78-732079.html Regards, /Ulrik -----Original Message----- From: cisco-nsp [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Nick Cutting Sent: den 3 juni 2015 09:11 To: [email protected] Subject: [c-nsp] ASR920 - ISR4431 We are looking at replacing some routers for a client, as they have recently upgraded to 1Gb internet. They just take a default route in from 2 carriers, but may be looking at taking in a few more routes - probably just those of each provider, so certainly much less than the 20k limits we see on many platforms. Price is a big concern - and this will be purely routing traffic and speaking BGP. I was looking at the ISR4431 with a 1gb licence and the ASR920 - the ASR1k is just too expensive. We use 4551's in other locations and they are very decent router - although they are 2U. 1U is a requirement. Would I just need the 6 port gigabit licence - and the chassis for the 920? Or do I need something to unlock a base set of features cable of speaking BGP Ipv4 ? The ISR4431 looks to be 3x as expensive - if I just need the licencing mentioned above for the 920.
