Netflow - Requires an extra license Only works at 1gig So we did not bother.

Hey all, With the ME3600 EOL, we’re looking to start deploying ASR920s. These boxes would run 100% L3 on the core facing sides (at 10 or 20Gbps), and aside from the odd corner case, 100% L3 on the customer facing side. Some of the more major features they’d run would be: ISIS LDP BFD BGP-VPNv4 BGP-VPNv6 (6VPE) BGP Selective Route Download IPv6* ACL (ingress and egress)* Per-VRF label mode EoMPLS FAT-PW VRF aware DHCP Relay w/option 82 stamping (device, port (EFP?), VLAN) VRF aware DHCP Server Corner cases would include BGP signalled VPLS w/BGP-AD, and l2protocol support for peer/forward/tunnel primarily on CDP and STP-type frames, as required. *ME3600s cannot support simultaneous configuration of egress ACLs and IPv6. I’ve heard that the ASR920 resources are carved up differently, where this is no longer a problem. My understanding is that the ASR920 behaves more like an ASR1000 than an ME3600 in terms of how L2 is implemented (ie: no more global vlan table, vlan database, etc and all EFP/bridge-domain based). Also, I understand that these boxes have Netflow to some degree, but a cursory look at the documentation seems to suggest that you need to set the SDM profile to video (which affects the device scale as it re-configured the TCAM) if you want to enable Netflow? I know this isn't the first time a “what are your experiences with these boxes like?” thread has made the rounds, but I wanted to throw it out again to see how much has changed since the last time it circulated. So, while we wait for some of these guys for the lab, I’m looking for some feedback on what to expect from these boxes in terms of reliability (hardware and software), feature limitations/gotchas, a good, reliable code version, and anything else someone might want to share about these guys, good, bad or indifferent. Thanks again, in advance. _______________________________________________ cisco-nsp mailing list [email protected] https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp archive at http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/ _______________________________________________ cisco-nsp mailing list [email protected] https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp archive at http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/
