Description
Network Management and Monitoring
The Cisco ASR 1001-4X1GE Aggregation Services Router can be managed and monitored through various methods, including the command-line interface (CLI), Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP), and the Cisco Prime Infrastructure network management platform.
The CLI can be accessed via a serial or Telnet/SSH connection and is used to configure and troubleshoot the router. SNMP allows for the monitoring of various aspects of the router, such as interface statistics and system uptime. Cisco Prime Infrastructure provides a graphical user interface (GUI) for managing and monitoring the router, as well as other devices on the network.
Additionally, the router supports various features such as Netflow, IP Service-Level Agreement (SLA), and IP Performance Routing (IPPR) which can be used for monitoring and troubleshoot the network traffic.
Features and Benefits
The Cisco ASR 1001-4X1GE Aggregation Services Router is a high-performance router designed for use in service provider networks. Some of its key features and benefits include:
- High-performance routing: The ASR 1001-4X1GE supports up to 2 Gbps of total throughput and can route up to 1 million IP routes.
- Multiple interface options: The router has 4 x 1GE interfaces and supports various interface types such as SFP, SFP+, and XFP.
- Carrier-class reliability: The router has a redundant power supply and fan trays, as well as hardware and software redundancy features such as Non-Stop Routing (NSR) and Stateful Switchover (SSO) to ensure high availability.
- Advanced security features: The router supports various security features such as Access Control Lists (ACLs), Virtual Private Network (VPN) support, and Network Address Translation (NAT) to secure the network.
- Service provider-class features: The router supports various service provider-class features such as Quality of Service (QoS), Multi-Protocol Label Switching (MPLS), and Virtual Routing and Forwarding (VRF) to support various service offerings and customer requirements.
- Network management and monitoring: The router can be managed and monitored through the CLI, SNMP, and Cisco Prime Infrastructure, which provides a centralized management and monitoring solution.
Quality of Service (QoS) Capabilities
The Cisco ASR 1001-4X1GE Aggregation Services Router supports a wide range of Quality of Service (QoS) capabilities to help ensure that network traffic is properly prioritized and managed. These capabilities include:
- Class-Based Weighted Fair Queuing (CBWFQ): This QoS feature allows for the allocation of bandwidth to different traffic classes based on configured weight. This helps ensure that critical traffic, such as voice or video, is given priority over less critical traffic.
- Low Latency Queuing (LLQ): This QoS feature allows for the allocation of bandwidth to a specific traffic class, while also providing low-latency queuing for that traffic. This helps ensure that delay-sensitive traffic, such as voice or video, is given priority over other traffic and experiences minimal delay.
- Priority Queuing (PQ): This QoS feature allows for the allocation of bandwidth to a specific traffic class and provides strict priority queuing for that traffic. This helps ensure that delay-sensitive traffic is given priority over other traffic and experiences minimal delay.
- Class-Based Marking (CB Marking): This QoS feature allows for the marking of traffic based on configured class. This helps ensure that traffic is properly classified and prioritized according to the network’s QoS policy.
- Weighted Random Early Detection (WRED): This QoS feature helps prevent network congestion by randomly dropping packets when the queue is full.
- Policy-Based Routing (PBR) : This QoS feature allows for the creation of routing policies based on various criteria, such as source IP address or destination port, to ensure that traffic is properly routed and prioritized.
- Link-Efficiency Mechanisms (LEM): This QoS feature helps to reduce the amount of traffic sent over the network by using techniques such as compression and packet-level deduplication.
