Description
Management and Monitoring Options
The ASR5K-042GE-SX-K9 Cisco ASR 5000 QGLC Rev2 4-Port Ethernet 1000 Card w/SX provides a number of management and monitoring options to help administrators manage and monitor the network:
- The card can be managed and configured through the Cisco IOS command-line interface (CLI) which allows for the configuration of various settings such as interfaces, routing protocols, and security features.
- The card also supports the use of Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) which allows for the monitoring of various network elements such as interfaces, routing protocols, and security features.
- The card also supports the use of Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP) which allows for the discovery and monitoring of other Cisco devices on the network.
- The card also supports the use of Cisco Network Assistant (CNA) which is a web-based management tool that allows for the configuration and monitoring of various network elements.
- The card also supports the use of Cisco Prime Network Control System (NCS) which is a network management system that allows for the configuration, monitoring, and troubleshooting of various network elements.
- The card also supports the use of Cisco Network Services Manager (NSM) which is a network management system that allows for the configuration and monitoring of various network elements.
- The card also supports the use of Cisco Network Analysis Module (NAM) which is a network analysis and troubleshooting tool that allows for the monitoring of network traffic and the identification of potential problems.
It’s worth noting that the management and monitoring options for the ASR5K-042GE-SX-K9 are more of a network-level management and monitoring options, and it’s possible to use other third-party management and monitoring tools to manage and monitor the network.
High Availability and Redundancy Options
The ASR5K-042GE-SX-K9 Cisco ASR 5000 QGLC Rev2 4-Port Ethernet 1000 Card w/SX provides a number of high availability and redundancy options to help ensure that the network remains available even in the event of a failure:
- The card supports the use of Hot Standby Router Protocol (HSRP) which allows for the configuration of a standby router that can take over in the event of a failure of the primary router.
- The card supports the use of Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP) which allows for the configuration of a virtual router that can take over in the event of a failure of the primary router.
- The card supports the use of Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) which allows for the bundling of multiple physical links into a single logical link, providing redundancy in the event of a link failure.
- The card supports the use of Cisco Nonstop Forwarding (NSF) which allows for the forwarding of packets even in the event of a control plane failure.
- The card supports the use of Stateful Switchover (SSO) which allows for the fast switchover to a standby router in the event of a failure of the primary router.
- The card supports the use of Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) which helps to prevent network loops by blocking redundant paths.
- The card supports the use of Virtual Routing and Forwarding (VRF) which allows for the creation of multiple virtual routing tables, providing isolation between different networks.
- The card also supports the use of redundancy in the power supply and cooling systems, to reduce the chances of the card being affected by these issues.
