Description
Flexible Service Provisioning Options
The Cisco ASR 901 10G 8 Ports Ethernet Router (A901-6CZ-FT-A) is a high-performance router that provides a range of flexible service provisioning options to enable efficient and reliable service delivery. Some of the key service provisioning options of the A901-6CZ-FT-A include:
- VLAN tagging: The router supports VLAN tagging, which allows you to create multiple logical networks on a single physical network. This enables you to segment traffic and provide different services to different customers or groups of users.
- VLAN translation: The router supports VLAN translation, which allows you to convert VLAN tags between different types, such as 802.1Q and ISL. This enables you to connect different types of equipment and devices to the network.
- VLAN stacking: The router supports VLAN stacking, which allows you to create multiple VLANs within a single VLAN. This enables you to provide more granular control over traffic and services.
- Quality of Service (QoS): The router supports a range of QoS features, such as traffic shaping, priority queuing, and policing, to ensure that critical applications and services receive the bandwidth they need.
- Multi-Protocol Label Switching (MPLS): The router supports MPLS, which allows you to create virtual private networks (VPNs) and provide differentiated services to different customers or groups of users.
- Virtual Routing and Forwarding (VRF): The router supports VRF, which allows you to create multiple routing and forwarding tables within a single router. This enables you to provide different services to different customers or groups of users.
- Network Address Translation (NAT): The router supports NAT, which allows you to translate the IP addresses of devices on a private network to a public IP address. This enables you to connect devices on a private network to the internet.
Redundancy and High Availability
The Cisco ASR 901 10G 8 Ports Ethernet Router (A901-6CZ-FT-A) is designed to provide redundancy and high availability to ensure that the network remains stable and reliable in case of any failures. Some of the key redundancy and high availability features of the A901-6CZ-FT-A include:
- Redundant power supply: The router features a redundant power supply that can take over in case of a power failure, ensuring that the network remains up and running.
- Redundant fan tray: The router features a redundant fan tray that can take over in case of a fan failure, ensuring that the router stays cool and continues to function normally.
- Hot-swappable components: The router features hot-swappable components, such as the power supply and fan tray, that can be replaced without disrupting the network, ensuring that the network remains up and running in case of a failure.
- Non-stop forwarding (NSF) with Stateful Switchover (SSO): The router supports NSF with SSO, which allows the router to continue forwarding traffic during a switchover, ensuring that the network remains up and running in case of a failure.
- In-Service Software Upgrade (ISSU): The router supports ISSU, which allows you to upgrade the software without disrupting the network, ensuring that the network remains up and running during software upgrades.
- Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP): The router supports VRRP, which allows you to configure a virtual router that can take over in case of a failure, ensuring that the network remains up and running.
- Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP): The router supports LACP, which allows you to bundle multiple physical links together to form a single logical link, ensuring that the network remains up and running in case of a failure.
Easy Management and Monitoring
The Cisco ASR 901 10G 8 Ports Ethernet Router (A901-6CZ-FT-A) is designed for easy management and monitoring to help service providers simplify the operation and maintenance of their networks. Some of the key management and monitoring features of the A901-6CZ-FT-A include:
- Cisco IOS XR Software: The router runs on Cisco IOS XR Software, which is a highly-reliable and feature-rich operating system that provides a range of tools for configuring, monitoring, and troubleshooting the router and its connected devices.
- Cisco Network Management System (NMS): The router can be managed and monitored using Cisco’s Network Management System (NMS), which provides a comprehensive set of tools for configuring, monitoring, and troubleshooting the router and its connected devices.
- Embedded Event Manager (EEM): The router supports Embedded Event Manager (EEM), which allows you to automate network management tasks, such as troubleshooting and monitoring, by creating custom scripts and triggers.
- Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP): The router supports Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP), which allows you to monitor and manage the router and its connected devices using standard SNMP-based management tools.
- Remote management: The router supports remote management and monitoring, which allows you to access the router and its connected devices remotely, making it easy to manage and monitor your network from anywhere.
- Logging and troubleshooting: The router provides extensive logging and troubleshooting capabilities, which allow you to quickly and easily identify and resolve network issues.
