Chapter 12 Cisco ASR 1001 Router Overview and Installation
Cisco ASR 1001 Router Description
The main components of the Cisco ASR 1001 Router, ASR1000-RP1, ASR1000-ESP5, and
ASR1000-SIP10 are fixed in the chassis and are not upgradeable, except for the power supplies and
SPAs.
Cisco Embedded ASR1000-RP1 for Cisco ASR 1001 Router Description
The Cisco ASR 1000 Series route processor (embedded for the Cisco ASR 1001 Router) is the central
control processor and runs the network operating system.
The Cisco embedded ASR1000-RP1 supports management interfaces such as the Ethernet network
management port and console and auxiliary serial ports. It has LED status indicators and one USB port
that can be used with smart cards for either secure key distribution or image or configuration file updates.
The Cisco embedded ASR1000-RP1 deviates from the other ASR Series Route Processor 1 for the Cisco
ASR 1006 router and the Cisco ASR 1004 Router in the following ways:
•
Bulk file storage is on a large eUSB device (to 8 GB supported) with no SATA hard-drive supported.
•
Redundant Cisco route processor is not supported.
•
Network clock changes. No second BITS clock input supported.
•
A built-in 4xGE SPA is included. This shared port adapter provides four SFP-based GE connections.
The Cisco route processor common LEDs and indicators are shown in
