Chapter 8 Cisco ASR 1002 Router Overview and Installation
Cisco ASR 1002 Router Description
Cisco Embedded ASR1000-RP1 for Cisco ASR 1002 Router Description
The Cisco ASR 1000 Series route processor (embedded for the Cisco ASR 1002 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, an RJ-45 plug for
a BITS timing reference and one USB port which can be used with smart cards for secure key distribution
or for 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 Router Processor 1 is not supported.
•
Network clock changes. No second BITS clock input supported.
•
A built-in 4xGE SPA is included. This shared port adapter provides 4 SFP-based GE connections.
Cisco Embedded ASR1000-SIP10 and SPAs for Cisco ASR 1002 Router Description
The Cisco embedded ASR1000-SIP10 in the Cisco ASR 1002 Router is built into the Cisco ASR 1002
Router. The Cisco embedded ASR1000-SIP10 provides the physical and electrical termination for up to
three half-height SPAs or one full-height and one half-height SPA. Double-wide SPAs are not supported.
The fourth SPA slot is connected to the built-in 4xGE SPA that resides on the Cisco embedded
ASR1000-RP1.
The Cisco embedded ASR1000-SIP10 interface, like the Cisco ASR 1006 Router and Cisco ASR 1004
Router, supports all Cisco embedded ASR1000-SIP10 functions and services. However, the Cisco
embedded ASR1000-SIP10 differs in the following areas:
•
Functions as the base board for Cisco embedded ASR1000-RP1
•
Only supports three removable half-height SPAs on Bay 1, 2, and 3. The fourth SPA is a built-in
4xGE SPA on Bay 0, which is located on the Cisco embedded ASR1000-RP1.
•
Is not a field-replaceable unit (FRU) and does not support online insertion and removal (OIR).
Note
The shared port adapters (SPAs) on the Cisco embedded ASR1000-SIP10 in the Cisco
ASR 1002 Router do support online insertion and removal.
The Cisco ASR 1002 Router embedded ASR1000-RP1 also provides the circuitry for the built-in 4xGE
SPA.
Cisco ASR1000-ESP5 and ASR1000-ESP10 Description
The Cisco ASR 1002 Router supports the Cisco ASR1000-ESP5 or Cisco ASR1000-ESP10 embedded
services processors. The Cisco ASR 1002 Router does not support the Cisco ASR1000-ESP20.
