Cisco IOS XE 3S Release Notes for the Cisco ASR 903 Router
OL-26630-08
Limitations and Restrictions
•
If you downgrade from 3.9 to a prior release with a BFD echo mode configuration, you must increase
the timer to 200ms or greater.
Bridge Domain Interface Limitation
•
The
mtu
command is not supported on BDI interfaces; however the
ip mtu
command is supported.
Clocking and Timing Limitations
•
Only a single clocking input source can be configured within each group of eight ports (0-7 and
8-15) on the T1/E1 interface module using the network-clock input-source command.
•
Synchronous Ethernet clock sources are not supported with PTP. Conversely, PTP clock sources are
not supported with synchronous Ethernet. However, you can use hybrid clocking to allow the router
to obtain frequency using Synchronous Ethernet and phase using PTP.
•
PTP over Ethernet is not supported in multicast mode; only unicast mode is supported
•
G.8265.1 telecom profile is not supported for PTP over Ethernet.
•
The Cisco ASR 903 Router does not support a mix of IPv4 and Ethernet clock-ports when acting as
a transparent clock or boundary clock.
•
Out-of-band clocking and the
recovered-clock
command are not supported.
•
The Synchronization Status Message (SSM) is not currently on OC-3 and OC-12 interfaces.
•
End-to-end Transparent Clock is not supported for PTP over Ethernet.
Dying Gasp Limitations
The Cisco ASR 903 Router supports dying gasp under the following scenarios:
•
Ethernet OAM is disabled
•
Interface is shut down
•
Interface enters error-disabled state
•
Router reload
•
Dying Gasp is not supported in the event of a power failure.
EFP Limitations
•
Trunk EFPs are not supported on port channel interfaces.
•
Up to 1000 VLANs are supported for trunk EFP over etherchannel traffic.
Ethernet IM Limitations
•
The Cisco ASR 903 Router does not support the Facilities Data Link (FDL) on Ethernet interfaces.
•
The Cisco ASR 903 Router does not support the
mac-address
command on Gigabit Ethernet
interface modules.
•
10 Gigabit Ethernet interface modules are not supported in slots 4 and 5.
•
When you install a Gigabit Ethernet IM in the topmost interface module slot (slot 5), the last
interface (interface GigabitEthernet0/5/0) is not operational; the port is reserved for internal
communication.
•
When you configure the copper and SFP Gigabit Ethernet interface modules on a router with
redundant RSPs, the
speed
and
duplex
commands are not visible in interface configuration mode
until you apply a
shutdown
/
no shutdown
to the interface.
•
Fragmentation is not supported with Multicast traffic.
