TheCisco ASR 1004 Router in a 4-rack unit (RU) form factor supports up to 8 shared port adapters (SPAs) and comes with one route processor and one embedded services processor slot. This provides flexibility for future upgrades, enhancing control plane and data plane scalability. The Cisco ASR 1004 Router provides up to 40 Gbps throughput support, making it a very cost-effective edge solution.

(...Cisco ASR 1004 Router) do not support ISSU upgrade or downgrade. Instead subpackage software upgrade is supported only if the router is running in subpackage mode. If that's the case how does one confirm the router is running in subpackage mode with a code that, if I'm not mistaken, was loaded without the subpackages. Also, what are the steps?

The problem I have is that the documentation has (new for me) steps that requires the extraction of packages from the file I posted above. It's all for ISSU and I have one RP. The current software running simply required the boot statement and that was it.

Regarding your query on how to verify if your ASR is running in subpackage mode you can just do a "show version" and look for the line "System image file is" and you will confirm if its booting from a packages.conf file or a consolidated .bin file:

It's definitely booting from a .bin file and not a .conf file. I just wanted to make sure I did or didn't have to go through that process as I'm familiar with the commands you've provided. The confusion came about also because of Table 5-1 in the following link:

For current generation uncompensated submarine cables with D+ fiber, 200G-300G is expected to operate over trans-Pacific cables, and 300G-400G is expected to operate over trans-Atlantic cables. While the higher line rate helps lower the cost per bit, time-hybrid modulation allows for continuous control of spectral efficiency which is the key metric to maximizing capacity on expensive submarine cable assets. This short video describes the challenges and intricacies in engineering submarine cable systems.

Figure 2: The below figure plots Q versus Spectral Efficiency for the NCS 1004 and for a typical competitor product. The NCS 1004 provides a continuous range of spectral efficiency values for different Q. Competitor products offer fixed line rates that limit the ability to maximize spectral efficiency for the desired Q-margin.

Cisco was able to demonstrate the benefits of the NCS 1004 over a sub-sea cable in production. The cable we tested ran over 10,000km with accumulated chromatic dispersion of 210,000 ps/nm. This cable was designed as an open cable and had a ROADM line system already deployed with over 20 percent of the spectrum consumed by 200G channels from a current generation transponder. As part of the trial with the NCS 1004, Cisco tested 200G and 300G over different baud-rates across different parts of the spectrum.

The Cisco ASR 1004 provides a significant enhanced value compared to prior generations of Cisco midrange routing solutions by providing more than tenfold performance improvement with services running. Additionally, the routers have hardware and software redundancy, as well as an industry-leading high-availability design. The Cisco ASR 1004 delivers multiple services embedded in the Cisco QuantumFlow Processor at wire speeds of up to 10 Gbps. The services supported on the Cisco Packet QuantumFlow Processor include security services (for example, encryption and firewall), quality of service (QoS), Network Based Application Recognition (NBAR), Cisco IOS Flexible Packet Matching, broadband aggregation, and session border controller, among others.

SAN JOSE, Calif., Sept. 11, 1995 -- Cisco Systems, Inc. today announced threenew routers: the Cisco 1004 and Cisco 1005, both part of the low-end Cisco1000 series of multiprotocol access products and the Cisco 4700, a new router in theCisco 4000 series of mid-range router products. All three new routers will be unveiled at Cisco's booth atNetworld+InterOp in Atlanta on September 25-29, 1995.

The Cisco 1004 is an ISDN router that connects small, remote Ethernetlocal-area networks (LANs) to wide-area networks (WANs) using IntegratedServices Digital Network (ISDN). This new router features an ISDNBasicRate Interface (BRI) with an integrated Network Termination 1 (NT1) device,which reduces the number of devices required to connect to ISDN in NorthAmerica. The Cisco 1005 is a synchronous serial router that connectssmall, remote Ethernet LANs to WANs using leased lines, Frame Relay,Switched Multimegabit Data Service (SMDS), Switched-56, and X.25.

The Cisco 1004 and Cisco 1005 routers are ideal for small remote offices thatrequire cost-effective solutions for part- or full-time connectivity toheadquarters and other central site locations. The routers are also amodel solution for transparent, inexpensive Internet access. With theintroduction of the Cisco 1004 and Cisco 1005, companies have more choicesfor connecting their small, remote sites inexpensively without sacrificingease of use, said Kevin Kennedy, product management director of Cisco'sRemote Access Products. Plus, these two new products take advantage of theCisco InternetworkOperating System (Cisco IOS), making them extremelyflexible and simple to manage. This introduction reinforces Cisco'sleadership in small branch and remote office internetworking.

The RISC-based Cisco 4700, when used in combination with Cisco's ATMNetwork Processor Module announced in July 1995, is optimized forAsynchronous TransferMode (ATM) backbone access, reliable IBMData-Link Switching(DLSw) internetworking and routing of native Advanced Peer-to-Peer (APPN) traffic.

The Cisco 4700 is also ideally suited as a central site or backbonerouter to handle SNA networking or other multiprotocol traffic when used asa DLSw router or border peer or as an APPN network node. Using Cisco'sDownstream PU Concentration function, the 4700 can also be used as a concentrator for hundreds of SNA devices.

The Cisco 4000 series of router products, which includes the high-performanceCisco 4700 router, features the industry's broadest set of connectivityoptions and are the industry's most widely used routers with more than80,000 units installed worldwide. Cisco Network Processor Modules availablefor this series include Ethernet, Token Ring, FDDI, ATM, serial, ISDN BRI,and ISDN PRI interfaces.

"We have many customers who are building large SNA/NetBIOS internetworks withhundreds of remote sites," said Kennedy. "The 4700 is highly optimized tolink remote sites to a central data center. The Cisco 4700 also provideslow-cost ATM connectivity and asserts Cisco's leadership in providinghigh-performance ATM access."

The introduction of these three new routers follows the recent agreementfor Cisco to acquire Combinet, Inc., a leading maker of ISDNremote-accessnetworking products. Cisco plans to employ Combinet technology (softwareapplications and platforms) to increase its leadership position in thefast-growing telecommuting arena. The Cisco 1000 series, because of itsvariety of WAN alternatives, sophisticated software features and managementcapabilities, will continue to provide Cisco customers with flexible,low-cost corporate branch office connectivity, small-office connectivityand corporate telecommuter solutions. Customers can expect to see the firstCisco-labeled Combinet products in the fourth quarter of 1995.

Cisco Systems, Inc.,headquartered in San Jose, Calif., is the leading globalsupplier of enterprisenetworks, including routers, LAN and ATM switches,dial-up access servers, and network management software. These products,integrated by Cisco's InternetworkOperating System (IOS), linkgeographically dispersed LANs, WANs and IBM networks. Cisco is traded underthe NASDAQ symbol CSCO.

The Cisco ASR1004-PWR-DC is a 756W DC power supply designed for the Cisco ASR 1004 router. It ensures reliable and efficient power delivery for network environments that require direct current (DC) input. With its high wattage capacity, this power supply can support intense network workloads.

This product offers seamless integration with the Cisco ASR 1004 router, providing businesses with a flexible networking solution that meets their diverse needs. The energy-efficient design optimizes power usage to reduce operational costs while minimizing environmental impact.
