Release Notes for Cisco ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services Routers for Cisco IOS XR Software Release 5.3.1
• BGP Prefix Independent Convergence—This provides the ability to converge BGP routes within
sub seconds instead of multiple seconds. The Forwarding Information Base (FIB) is updated, independent
of a prefix, to converge multiple 100K BGP routes with the occurrence of a single failure. This
convergence is applicable to both core and edge failures and with or without MPLS. This fast
convergence innovation is unique to Cisco IOS XR Software.
• Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS)—This supports MPLS protocols, including Traffic Engineering
(TE) [including TE-FRR and TE Preferred Path], Resource Reservation Protocol (RSVP), Label
Distribution Protocol (LDP), Targeted LDP (T-LDP), Differentiated Services (DiffServ)-aware traffic
engineering, and Layer 3 Virtual Private Network (L3VPN).
• Multicast—This provides comprehensive IP Multicast software including Source Specific Multicast
(SSM) and Protocol Independent Multicast (PIM) in Sparse Mode only. The Cisco ASR 9000 Series
Aggregation Services Router also supports Auto-Rendezvous Point (AutoRP), Multiprotocol BGP
(MBGP), Multicast Source Discovery Protocol (MSDP), Internet Group Management Protocol Versions
2 and 3 (IGMPv2 and v3), IGMPv2 and v3 snooping, Multicast Listener Discovery (MLD) versions
1 and 2, and MLD snooping versions 1 and 2.
• Quality of Service (QOS)—This supports QoS mechanisms including policing, marking, queuing,
random and hard traffic dropping, and shaping. Additionally, Cisco IOS XR supports modular QoS
command-line interface (MQC). MQC is used to configure various QoS features on various Cisco
platforms, including the Cisco ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services Router. Supports the following:
◦Class-Based Weighted Fair Queuing (CBWFQ)
◦Weighted Random Early Detection (WRED)
◦Priority Queuing with propagation
◦2-rate 3-color (2R3C) Policing
◦Modular QoS CLI (MQC)
◦4-level Hierarchical-QoS
◦Shared Policy Instances
• Manageability—This provides industry-standard management interfaces including modular
command-line interface (CLI), Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP), and native Extensible
Markup Language (XML) interfaces. Includes a comprehensive set of Syslog messages.
• Security—This provides comprehensive network security features including Layer 2 and Layer 3
access control lists (ACLs); routing authentications; Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting
(AAA)/Terminal Access Controller Access Control System (TACACS+), Secure Shell (SSH),
Management Plane Protection (MPP) for management plane security, and Simple Network Management
Protocol version3 (SNMPv3). Control plane protections integrated into line card Application-Specific
Integrated Circuits (ASICs) include Generalized TTL Security Mechanism (GTSM), RFC 3682, and
Dynamic Control Plane Protection (DCPP).
• Availability—This supports rich availability features such as fault containment, fault tolerance, fast
switchover, link aggregation, nonstop routing for ISIS, LDP, OSPF, and nonstop forwarding (NSF).
• Enhanced core competencies:
◦IP fast convergence with Fast Reroute (FRR) support for Intermediate System-to-Intermediate
System (IS-IS)
◦IP fast convergence with Fast Reroute (FRR) support for Open Shortest Path First (OSPF)

Note that error messages may display if features run without the appropriate licenses installed. For example,
when creating or configuring VRF, if the A9K-IVRF-LIC license is not installed before creating a VRF, the
following message displays:
RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:router#LC/0/0/CPU0:Dec 15 17:57:53.653 : rsi_agent[247]:
%LICENSE-ASR9K_LICENSE-2-INFRA_VRF_NEEDED : 5 VRF(s) are configured without license
A9K-iVRF-LIC in violation of the Software Right To Use Agreement. This feature may be
disabled by the system without the appropriate license. Contact Cisco to purchase the
license immediately to avoid potential service interruption.
For Cisco license support, please contact your Cisco Sales Representative or Customer Service at 800553-NETS (6387) or 408-526-4000. For questions on the program other than ordering, please send e-mail to:
[email protected].
Cisco ASR 9000 Series Aggregration Services Router Right-To-Use (RTU) Licensing
Here are on-line locations of the Cisco ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services Router Right-To-Use (RTU)
licensing documents:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/routers/asr9000/hardware/Prodlicense/A9k-AIP-LIC-B.html
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/routers/asr9000/hardware/Prodlicense/A9k-AIP-LIC-E.html
Note
Layer 3 VPNs are only to be used after you have purchased a license. Cisco will enforce the RTU of
L3VPNs in follow on releases. You should contact Cisco, or check the release notes for the follow on
release before upgrading for directions on how to install the license as part of the upgrade - otherwise the
L3VPN feature may be affected.
The activation of VRF capability still requires the use of the appropriate per line card license (A9K-IVRF-LIC
/ A9K-AIP-LIC-B / A9K-AIP-LIC-E). Please contact your sales representative for more details.
Firmware Support
To check the firmware code running on the Cisco ASR 9000 Series Router, run the show fpd package
command in admin mode.
If upgrading from Release 3.7.3 or earlier releases, you may be expected to do a one-time FPD upgrade for
any firmware images that may have changed since the last release. Refer to the documents at http://
www.cisco.com/web/Cisco_IOS_XR_Software/index.html for upgrade instructions.

Segment Routing
This section explains the concept of segment routing and the relevant procedures to configure and verify the
various features.
BFD over Bundles CISCO/IETF Mode Support on a Per Bundle Basis
BFD over Bundle (BoB) mode is a standard based fast failure detection of link aggregation (LAG) member
links that is interoperable between different platforms. BoB support on a per bundle basis provides an option
to choose either Cisco or IETF standard per bundle, without necessitating reloads or process restarts across
various systems. The default is Cisco mode.
Note
The global-level command available in previous releases to configure CISCO/IETF BoB over bundles is
deprecated from release 5.3.1 onwards. In order to ensure a smooth upgrade, Cisco recommends that you
configure the bundle at the interface level.
For more information on BFD over Bundle Mode see the Implementing BFD chapter in the Cisco ASR 9000
Series Aggregation Services Router Routing Configuration Guide. For more information on BFD over Bundle
Mode commands, see the BFD Commands chapter in the Cisco ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services Router
Routing Command Reference.
L3VPN iBGP PE-CE
The L3VPN iBGP PE-CE feature helps establish an iBGP (internal Border Gateway Protocol) session between
the provider edge (PE) and customer edge (CE) devices to exchange BGP routing information. A BGP session
between two BGP peers is said to be an iBGP session if the BGP peers are in the same autonomous systems.
For more information on L3VPN iBGP PE-CE, see the Implementing BGP chapter in the Cisco ASR 9000
Series Aggregation Services Router Routing Configuration Guide. For more information on L3VPN iBGP
PE-CE commands, see the BGP Commands chapter in the Cisco ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services
Router Routing Command Reference.
Source and destination-based flow tag
The source-based flow tag feature allows you to match packets based on the flow-tag assigned to the source
address of the incoming packets. Once matched, you can then apply any supported PBR action on this policy.
For more information on Source and destination-based flow tag, see the Implementing BGP chapter in the
Cisco ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services Router Routing Configuration Guide. For more information on
source-based flow tag commands, see the BGP Commands chapter in the Cisco ASR 9000 Series Aggregation
Services Router Routing Command Reference.
BGP Maximum Prefix - Discard Extra Paths
The discard extra paths feature discards all the excess paths received from the neighbor when the paths exceed
the configured maximum value.

Software Features Introduced in Cisco IOS XR Software Release 5.3.1
CFM Performance Monitoring on Satellite
Performance Monitoring (PM) for Connectivity Fault Management (CFM) on nV Satellite system has been
improved by processing the CFM PM frames on the satellite instead of the ASR9K host. Prior to this release,
MEPs configured on Satellite Access ports processed (time-stamped) performance monitoring frames only
at the ASR9K host.
For more information about CFM PM frame processing on the satellite, see the Configuring the Satellite
Network Virtualization (nV) System chapter in the Cisco ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services Router nV
System Configuration Guide.
CFM on a multipoint-to-multipoint cross connect
Connectivity Fault Management (CFM) is supported over a multipoint-to-multipoint cross connect. For related
content, see the service command in Cisco ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services Router Interface and
Hardware Component Command Reference.
RADIUS over IPv6
From Cisco IOS XR Software Release 5.3.1 and later, RADIUS over IPv6 is supported in BNG, thereby
allowing IPv6 address also for various RADIUS configurations and CoA client configurations.
These commands are extended to support IPv6 address:
• radius-server host (global configuration mode)
• radius server (radius server group configuration mode)
• radius server-private (radius server group configuration mode)
• aaa server radius dynamic-author client (global configuration mode)
For more information about RADIUS over IPv6 feature, see the Configuring Authentication, Authorization,
and Accounting Functions chapter in the Cisco ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services Router Broadband
Network Gateway Configuration Guide. For complete command reference, see the BNG AAA Commands
chapter in the Cisco ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services Router Broadband Network Gateway Command
Reference.
BNG Geo Redundancy Enhancements
BNG geo redundancy support is enhanced with these features:
• The backend policy and charging rule function (PCRF) system need to send the CoA message only to
the master node; not to the slave node.
• Once the session is up on the master node, the entire session information gets synced to the slave node.
This includes dynamic synchronization of updates such as CoA or service logon.
IP in IP Tunneling
IP in IP tunneling refers to the encapsulation of an IP packet as a payload in another IP packet. ASR9K routers
support IP in IP tunnels with all possible combinations of IPv4 and IPv6; that is, IPv4 over IPv4, IPv6 over
IPv4, IPv4 over IPv6, and IPv6 over IPv6. For example, an IPv4 over IPv6 refers to an IPv4 packet as a

Software Features Introduced in Cisco IOS XR Software Release 5.3.1
payload encapsulated within an IPv6 packet and routed across an IPv6 network to reach the destination IPv4
network, where it is decapsulated.
VPLS LSM on A9K-SIP-700 Line Card
The A9K-SIP-700 Line Card on the Cisco ASR 9000 Series Router supports VPLS Label Switched Multicast
(LSM). For this feature content, see the section VPLS LSM as a Solution in Cisco ASR 9000 Series Aggregation
Services Router MPLS Layer 3 VPN Configuration Guide.
BGP RD value
For the BGP rd command in the L2VPN bridge domain VFI autodiscovery BGP and L2VPN cross-connect
mp2mp autodiscovery BGP submodes, the index value associated with the IP address can take values higher
than 32767 in the range from 0 to 65535. For details, see the rd command documentation in Cisco ASR 9000
Series Aggregation Services Router VPN and Ethernet Services Command Reference.
VXLAN Anycast Gateway
The VXLAN anycast gateway feature extends anycast functionality to VXLAN. It enables the use of anycast
routing on a network for underlay multicast load-balancing and redundancy.
Note
The VXLAN anycast gateway feature is supported on only Cisco ASR 9000 High Density 100GE Ethernet
line cards.
Enhancements to PMIPv6 LMA
Proxy Mobile IPv6 (PMIPv6) Local Mobility Anchor (LMA) configuration now supports the following
commands on the Cisco ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services Routers:
• enforce heartbeat-to-mag enforces the values of heartbeat parameters on a Mobile Access Gateway
(MAG)
• redistribute home-address controls redistribution of Home Address (HoA) / Home Network prefix
(HNP) routes into routing protocols
For more information, see the Proxy Mobile IPv6 Local Mobility Anchor Commands chapter in the Cisco ASR
9000 Series Aggregation Services Router IP Addresses and Services Command Reference .
Configuring CoS for Unicast DHCPv4 Control Packets on Cisco ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services Routers
The inner and outer Class of Service (CoS) values for unicast DHCPv4 control packets can now be configured
on Cisco ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services Routers. The outer CoS value configured using the outer-cos
command is also set as the inner CoS value. The inner-cos command cannot be used to directly set inner CoS
value for unicast packets. In previous releases, the inner and outer CoS values could not be configured for
unicast DHCPv4 packets. The inner-cos and outer-cos commands can still be used to configure CoS values
for broadcast packets.
For more information about configuring the CoS values, see the BNG DHCP Commands chapter in Cisco
ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services Router Broadband Network Gateway Command Reference.

Smart Licensing for PMIPv6 LMA
Smart Licensing method of licensing has been enabled for Proxy Mobile IPv6 (PMIPv6) Local Mobility
Anchor (LMA) on the Cisco ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services Routers. The licensing mode is
soft-enforced mode. The licensing string available is A9K-SESSION-128K with maximum supported scale
of 128K LMA bindings.
For more information about Smart Licensing, see Cisco ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services Router System
Management Configuration Guide. For more information about PMIPv6 LMA, see the Configuring Proxy
Mobile IPv6 Local Mobility Anchor chapter in the Cisco ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services Router IP
Addresses and Services Configuration Guide.
IPv6 Virtual Management Interface on RSP
An IPv6 virtual address can now be configured to enable access to the router from a single virtual address
with a management network, without the prior knowledge of which route processor (RP) is active. An IPv6
virtual address persists across RP failover situations. A new command ipv6 virtual address has been introduced
to define an IPv6 virtual address for a network of management Ethernet interfaces.
For more information, see the Configuring IPv6 Addressing chapter in the IP Addresses and Services
Configuration Guides. For more information about the new command, see the Network Stack IPv4 and IPv6
Commands chapter in the IP Addresses and Services Command References.
Policy-map Show Commit Diff Support
The difference between the currently running configuration and the target configuration (the configuration
before the commit command) can be displayed using the show commit diff support command.
In Cisco IOS XR Release 5.3.1, the policy-map keyword is added to the show commit diff command. This
keyword provides details about the policy-map implementation.
UDLD over Bundle ICL
Satellite access interface over bundle ICL supports Unidirectional Link Detection (UDLD) protocol.
IPv6 Ingress Classification on DSCP
IP DSCP is supported for IPv6.
For more information, see Supported Capability Matrix section in Configuring Modular QoS Service Packet

Predefined NAT
In classic NAT, the process of mapping a private IP to a public IP or a private port to an outside port is random.
Therefore, it becomes difficult to track the subscribers using an IP and a port at a given time. Predefined NAT
avoids this random process by mapping a private IP address to a range of ports associated with the corresponding
public IP address. This is done through an algorithm that helps the user to recognize a private IP address
without having to refer to the massive CGN logs. The address and port translation is done in accordance with
the algorithm.
For more information on Predefined NAT, see the Carrier Grade IPv6 over Virtualized Services Module
(VSM) chapter in the Cisco ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services Router CGv6 Configuration Guide, Release
5.3.x. For more information on Predefined NAT commands, see the Carrier Grade NAT Commands on Cisco
IOS XR Software chapter in the Cisco ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services Router CGv6 Command Reference,

Software Features Introduced in Cisco IOS XR Software Release 5.3.1
Netconf-yang updates
Support is extended to new Yang models. Refer the Cisco ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services Router
System Security Configuration Guide for a list of the Yang models and their descriptions.
In case of a DoS (Denial of Service) attack on Netconf, wherein, Netconf receives numerous requests in a
short span of time, the router may become irresponsive if Netconf consumes most of the bandwidth or CPU
processing time. This can be prevented, by limiting the traffic directed at the Netconf agent. This is achieved
using the netconf-yang agent rate-limit and netconf-yang agent session commands.
The relevant commands are discussed in detail, in the Cisco ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services Router
System Security Command Reference .
Dynamic Flow Based Label Support for BGP Signalled Pseudowires
Flow aware label capacity can be dynamically learnt through BGP signalling. The static keyword is optional
for the load-balancing flow-label command in the L2VPN bridge group bridge-domain vfi auto-discovery
bgp signaling-protocol submode. For details, see the load-balancing flow-label command in Cisco ASR 9000
Series Aggregation Services Router VPN and Ethernet Services Command Reference.

Important Notes
• Starting Cisco IOS XR Software Release 4.3.2, the Flow Aware Transport (FAT) Pseudo Wire default
label value changed from 0x11 to 0x17 (as per directions of the IANA). When building FAT pseudo
wires between XR releases post 4.3.2 and 4.3.1 and prior, a configuration is necessary to set the flow
label value to the old value of 0x11 (which is 17 decimal in the configuration. Please refer to the
configuration guide for FAT Pseudowire for the exact command sequence or find more information on
the ASR9000 BLOG on the support forums.
• Country-specific laws, regulations, and licenses—In certain countries, use of these products may be
prohibited and subject to laws, regulations, or licenses, including requirements applicable to the use of
the products under telecommunications and other laws and regulations; customers must comply with all
such applicable laws in the countries in which they intend to use the products.
• Card fan controller, and RSP removal—For all card removal and replacement (including fabric cards,
line cards, fan controller, and RSP) follow the instructions provided by Cisco to avoid impact to traffic.
See the Cisco ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services Router Getting Started Guide for procedures.
• Exceeding Cisco testing—If you intend to test beyond the combined maximum configuration tested and
published by Cisco, contact your Cisco Technical Support representative to discuss how to engineer a
large-scale configuration for your purpose.
• Installing a Line Card—For a fully populated 40-port high density Line Card with cable optics,
maintenance time required for card replacement is higher. For more information about Line Card
installation and removal, refer to the Cisco ASR 9000 Aggregation Services Router Ethernet Line Card
Installation Guide.
• Serial Interfaces Out of Order in "show ip interface brief" Command—The show ip interface brief
command might display interfaces out of order if different types of serialization are used on the SPA
cards.
The serial interfaces are displayed in the show ip interface brief command output in the order shown in
the example below:
The ordering is based on:
1 Slot
2 SPA
3 Type
4 T3
5 T3/T1
6 vt15-T1
7 multilink
This may be confusing (the interfaces appear out of order) for the user who is accustomed to IOS.

• For configured policer rates of less than 1 Mbps, the actual policer rate can be approximately 10 percent
less than the configured rate. For example, for a configured policer rate of 500 kbps, the actual policer
rate is 448 kbps due to a granularity round down in hardware.
• In Cisco ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services Router Software Release 4.0.0, the minimum configurable
logging buffered size has been increased to 307200. Any configuration with a value less than 307200
fails to upgrade to Release 4.0.1.
◦Run the show configuration failed startup command on startup to display the failed configuration.
◦Workaround: Prior to upgrading to Release 4.0.1, set the logging buffer size to a value of 307200
or greater (logging buffered 307200) .
• dsu mode Command Default— For E3 interfaces on the 4-Port Clear Channel T3/E3 SPA that
interoperate with E3 interfaces on a Cisco 10000 Series router, the default data service unit (DSU) mode
is digital-link. To change the DSU mode to cisco, configure scrambling.
• In Cisco ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services Router Software Release 4.1.0, you use the cablelength
short command to set a cable length of 655 feet or shorter for a DS1 link on a 4-Port Channelized T1/E1
SPA. The cablelength short command options are listed as follows:
RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:(config-t1)#cablelength short ?
133ft
0-133ft
266ft
134-266ft
399ft
267-399ft
533ft
400-533ft
655ft
534-655ft
However, when using the cablelength short command on a 4-Port Channelized T1/E1 SPA in Cisco
ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services Router Software Release 4.1.0, only the 133ft option (for cable
lengths from 0 to 133 feet) works. The other values that are greater than 133 feet (266, 399, 533, or 655)
all cause the T1 controller to go down. The workaround is to restart the controller after you set the cable
length to 266, 399, 533, or 655 feet. The cablelength long command works correctly
