Chapter 2 Cisco ASR 1000 Series Routers Components
Cisco ASR 1000 Series Route Processor 1
•Code storage and download operational code to Cisco ASR 1000 Series Embedded Services
Processor and Cisco ASR 1000 Series SPA Interface (SIP)
•Bulk storage is 40G hard disk drive (SSD optional)
•I/O support: 2 Mb upgradeable BootRom, 1GB Embedded USB memory (EUSB)
•512 MB embedded USB, 1GB on RP1 for Cisco ASR 1006 Router and ASR 1004 Router, and 8GB
on Cisco ASR 1002 Router
•Front panel support: Console, 10/100/1000 Management port, and two USB ports
The two serial ports can run up to 115.2kbps with hardware flow control. One port is used as the
CONSOLE port for secure configuration and status display. The default BAUD rate for the CONSOLE
port should be set at 9600 BAUD. The console port is an asynchronous serial port; any devices connected
to this port must be capable of asynchronous transmission.
The auxiliary port connects a modem or other DCE device (such as a CSU/DSU or other router) to allow
remote service and dial backup access to the system. Both the console and auxiliary ports are
asynchronous serial ports; any devices connected to these ports must be capable of asynchronous
transmission.'The AUX port is a diagnostics access port.
Cisco Embedded ASR1000-RP1 for Cisco ASR 1002 Router
The route processor for the Cisco ASR 1002 Router supports all the typical customer management
interfaces such as the Ethernet network management port and console and auxiliary serial ports of the
route processor for the Cisco ASR 1006 and ASR 1004 routers. It also has LED status indicators, an
RJ45 plug for a BITS timing reference and one USB ports which can be used with smart cards for secure
key distribution or for image or configuration file updates. The route processor is part of the 12V power
supply distribution and provides control for the power supplies.
The route processor for the Cisco ASR 1002 Router provides connection for one SPA bay and the
circuitry for the a built-in 4xGE SPA.
The Cisco embedded ASR1000-RP1 for the Cisco ASR 1002 Router meets the requirements of route
processor for the Cisco ASR 1006 and ASR 1004 routers in addition to these features:
•Supports up to 4GB of ECC protected field-replaceable memory with single-bit error correction and
multi-bit error detection.
•eUSB based bulk storage supports 8GB on the Cisco ASR 1006 Router and the Cisco ASR 1004
Router. On the Cisco ASR 1002 Router, the bulk storage and eUSB bootflash are a single 8GB eUSB
device (no hard disk or SSD).
•IO support: 2Mbyte upgradeable BootRom, minimum 512MB EUSB
•Front panel support: Console and Aux port, 10/100/1000 management port, one USB port, and
Status and Alarm LEDs.
•Supports Stratum-3 network clocking with T1/E1 BITS interface or SPAs as timing sources.
