Note The commands available to you depend on the router mode and your user group assignments.

Step 3 If you belong to a user group that has configuration privileges, you can place the router in the global configuration mode by entering the configure command:

RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:router# configure

RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:router(config)#

Step 4 From global configuration mode, you can place the router in a configuration submode, such as interface configuration mode or a protocol-specific configuration mode.

RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:router# configure

RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:router(config)# mpls ldp

RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:router(config-ldp)#

In the following example, the router enters interface configuration mode and the user selects an MPLS Traffic Engineering Tunnel interface for configuration.

RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:router(config)# interface tunnel-te 2

RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:router(config-if)#

The command mode prompt changes from (config) to (config-if)and you can now enter configuration commands for the specified interface.

Step 5 To exit interface configuration mode and return to global configuration mode, type the exit command. To return to EXEC mode, type the end command.

Managing Configuration Sessions

With the Cisco IOS XR Software, you cannot change the running (active) configuration directly. Enter configuration changes into an inactive target configuration. When the target configuration is ready, apply that configuration to the router with the commit command. This allows you to make, edit, and verify configuration changes before impacting the running state of the router.

Figure 3-2shows the two-stage configuration process.

Cisco Systems has long been a leader in networking technology, providing cutting-edge solutions for service providers and enterprise organizations alike. Among their standout products is the Cisco ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services Routers, notably the A9K24X10GETR and the A9KMOD80TR models. These routers are engineered to deliver unmatched performance, scalability, and versatility for networks that require high bandwidth and low latency.

The Cisco ASR 9000 Series is built for the needs of today's complex service provider and enterprise networks. A significant feature of the A9K24X10GETR is its 24-port 10-Gigabit Ethernet module. This functionality allows for high-density connectivity, making it ideal for aggregating numerous connections to different parts of a network while maintaining optimal performance. Whether used for Internet service providers delivering high-speed connectivity or for enterprises looking to connect multiple branches, the A9K24X10GETR provides robust and reliable data transmission.

Further enhancing the capabilities of the ASR 9000 is the A9KMOD80TR module, which supports an extensive range of services. This module is designed to run a variety of technologies, including Layer 2 and Layer 3 services, MPLS (Multiprotocol Label Switching), and IPv6. Its ability to integrate seamlessly into existing infrastructures while providing the advanced features customers demand makes it an invaluable asset for network engineering teams.

Another cutting-edge technology present in the ASR 9000 Series is its support for eBGP (External Border Gateway Protocol), which plays a critical role in managing traffic across multiple networks. The routers are equipped with advanced telemetry features, empowering operators with real-time insights into network performance and health. Additionally, they come with integrated security features that protect against DDoS threats and other vulnerabilities.

In summary, Cisco's ASR 9000 Series, particularly the A9K24X10GETR and A9KMOD80TR, combines high-density connections, extensive service support, and advanced security and telemetry capabilities. These routers are perfect for demanding environments where reliable performance and adaptability are crucial. With their focus on innovation and performance, Cisco continues to shape the future of networking technology.
