2016-07-06 Thread Curtis Piehler
So we know about the memory constraint on the 3BXLs but what happens if the memory usage actually hits 90%? Will the SUP still allow VTY sessions? I know on the NPEs for the 7200s once 90% is reached the router will rejecting all VTY attempts. On Jul 6, 2016 3:21 AM, "Gert Doering"

Honestly with the aging hardware for the 6500s and 7600s I would go with an ASR1004/6. The only thing you won't have is port density like on a 6500. Obviously a 6500 is a switch and a 1004/6 is a router. If you need the port density you can go with the ASR1006-X which has EPAs (Less room for

[c-nsp] ASR1000 SIP10 Oversubscription

2016-06-26 Thread Curtis Piehler
Concerning the SIP10 cards for the ASR1000. I know the total bandwidth allotted on the card is 10G and it allows for a 2:1 oversubscription before SPA cards start to shut down. However, how is the oversubscription calculated? Is it based on the actual throughput the SIP-10/SPAs are performing?

Re: [c-nsp] BGP blackhole community config

2016-06-19 Thread Curtis Piehler
Usually that is the case where your sent the community as ISP:NN. However in this case your provider is using 64682:0 to denote traffic as blackhole. Not an issue perse but that's what they are telling you is what they honor as far as communities coming into their network. On Jun 19, 2016 7:38

[c-nsp] ASR9000 Import/Exporting between two VRFs

2016-06-14 Thread Curtis Piehler
Hello, Quite the curious case here. An ASR9000 router has two VRFs. For simplicity sake let's call them VRF A and VRF B. VRF A and VRF B need to be able to see each other's routes via importing and exporting however here's the catch. I need VRF A to see VRF B's routes and vice versa but with

[c-nsp] MPLS Routing with PBR

I have quite a scenario here that we are working on testing in the lab but wanted to know if anyone has experience in this. In this scenario there are a few PE routers (ASR9K) connected to each other with a "firewall" connecting to one of the PE routers. Two different PE routers have a customer

I've searched for this before and I was not able to find the functionality, even on the 5ks. The reason being in my belief is the Nexus platform is designed for datacenter switching. QinQ is more of a metro/carrier type functionality. With the QinQ SVI your egress interface would need to be

[c-nsp] ASR1000 licencing

2016-06-06 Thread Curtis Piehler
I have been researching the licencing models and I see Cisco's notes that it is no longer enforced (honor based). For an ASR1006 if I do not obtain the licence what happens? Does it just throw nuisance alarms in the logs like an ASR9000 if you do not obtain the licence for the NPU? Ideally

[c-nsp] ASR1000 RP1 vs RP2

2016-06-04 Thread Curtis Piehler
I see the main difference between the two is the 32 bit OS vs a 64 bit and 1.5 single core vs a 2.2 dual core. Yes the memory is increased and hard drive space. If a 1006 will be used for some DS1 and Ethernet termination would an RP1 be enough? I could also do with an ESP20 and SIP10s since

Is it a requirement to have an ESP in the chassis? I know what the they are supposed to be used for (offload network services). If the router is going to be used for doing just packet forwarding and some QOS is it really needed in the chassis? Thanks Curtis
