Description
Advanced Wireless Features of Twisted Pair Router
The ASR1000-RP3 version of the Cisco ASR1000 Series Twisted Pair Route Processor 3 does not have built-in wireless capabilities, it’s a wired router, it is not designed to provide wireless connectivity directly. However, it can be used to connect to wireless network devices by using wireless access points (APs) and wireless controllers.
To connect the ASR1000-RP3 router to wireless network devices, you would need to:
- Connect the router to a wireless controller: Connect the router to a wireless controller using a wired connection. The wireless controller will manage the wireless access points and provide the wireless connectivity.
- Configure the wireless controller: Configure the wireless controller with the appropriate settings, such as SSID, security, and VLANs.
- Connect wireless access points: Connect wireless access points to the wireless controller. The wireless access points will provide the wireless connectivity to the end devices.
- Configure the wireless access points: Configure the wireless access points with the appropriate settings, such as SSID, security, and VLANs.
It’s important to note that the ASR1000-RP3 does not have built-in wireless connectivity capabilities, it’s a wired router. To provide wireless connectivity, additional wireless networking equipment such as wireless controllers and access points are required. Additionally, it’s always recommended to consult the official Cisco documentation for the latest information and guidelines.
High Availability and Redundancy
The ASR1000-RP3 version of the Cisco ASR1000 Series Twisted Pair Route Processor 3 includes several high availability and redundancy features that can be used to ensure that the router remains operational in the event of a failure.
- Redundant Route Processor: The router includes a redundant Route Processor that can take over in case of failure of the active Route Processor.
- Stateful Switchover (SSO): The router includes Stateful Switchover (SSO) which ensures that the active Route Processor takes over the configuration and routing table of the standby Route Processor in case of failure, this ensures that the router remains operational with minimal interruption.
- Non-Stop Routing (NSR): The router includes Non-Stop Routing (NSR) which allows for the routing protocols to continue running on the standby Route Processor even if the active Route Processor fails.
- Graceful Restart: The router includes Graceful Restart, which allows for the routing protocols to restart gracefully in the event of a failure, minimizing the disruption to the network.
- Redundant power supplies: The router includes redundant power supplies to ensure that the router remains operational in the event of a power supply failure.
- Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP): The router includes support for Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP) which allows for multiple routers to share a virtual IP address.
- Hot Standby Router Protocol (HSRP): The router includes support for Hot Standby Router Protocol (HSRP) which allows for multiple routers to share a virtual IP address and failover in case of failure.
It’s important to note that these are just general high availability and redundancy features, specific features may vary depending on the version of the IOS software running on the device. Additionally, it’s always recommended to consult the official Cisco documentation for the latest information and guidelines.
Software Specifications of Router
The ASR1000-RP3 version of the Cisco ASR1000 Series Twisted Pair Route Processor 3 runs on Cisco’s IOS-XE operating system, which includes several software features that can be used to manage and configure the router.
- Routing protocols: The router supports several routing protocols, including Border Gateway Protocol (BGP), Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (IGRP), Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) and Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (EIGRP)
- Quality of Service (QoS): The router includes Quality of Service (QoS) features that can be used to prioritize different types of network traffic.
- Security: The router includes advanced security features, such as access control lists (ACLs), VPN, and intrusion prevention.
- Network Management: The router includes network management features, such as Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP), Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP), and syslog.
- High availability and redundancy: The router includes High availability and redundancy features, such as Stateful Switchover, Non-Stop Routing, and Graceful Restart.
- Virtualization: The router supports virtualization features, such as Virtual Routing and Forwarding (VRF) and Virtual Private LAN Service (VPLS).
- Automation: The router supports automation features, such as NETCONF, YANG, and REST API
It’s important to note that these are just general software specifications, specific features may vary depending on the version of the IOS-XE software running on the router. Additionally, it’s always recommended to consult the official Cisco documentation for the latest information and guidelines.
