SLASR907-A

Description

Cisco IOS XE Software for Cisco ASR 900 Series Aggregation Services Routers provides a modular structure, enhancing quality and performance through separation of data plane and control plane. The SLASR907-A license activates Metro Aggregation Services on the Cisco ASR 907 Router, allowing customers to pay only for required features.

Cisco ASR 907 Router is supported as of Cisco IOS XE Software Release 3.16.1aS. Consolidated software packages include universal images for RSP2 and RSP3, with or without payload encryption.

Flexible Software Activation

ASR 900 Series routers support Cisco IOS software activation with software licenses in a pay-as-services-grow model. All licenses except specific port licenses are per-chassis. The SLASR907-A provides Metro Aggregation Services, adding to Metro IP Services: Multiprotocol Label Switching Transport Profile (MPLS-TP); MPLS, Ethernet over MPLS (EoMPLS), Circuit Emulation Service over Packet Switched Network (CESoPSN), Structure Agnostic TDM over Packet (SAToP) pseudowires; Multirouter Automatic Protection Switching (MR-APS); Multichassis Link Aggregation and Control Protocol (mLACP); MPLS Traffic Engineering (MPLS TE); MPLS Fast Reroute (FRR); MPLS VPN support.
