| Feature | Description |
|---|---|
|
Programmability |
|
|
The OpenConfig data models provide a structure for managing networks via YANG protocols. With this release, enhancements to the configuration architecture improve input validations and ensure that the Get requests made through gNMI or NETCONF protocols return only explicitly configured OpenConfig leaves. |
|
|
You can now prevent the partially-committed configurations on the router and thus ensure the system database and OpenConfig datastore stay in sync. This feature changes how the internal rollback error is handled when a pseudo-atomic commit fails. In such cases, the system database always rolls back the configuration in its datastore thereby ensuring that there is no partially-committed configuration. If there is still inconsistency, the system displays error messages to notify you of various internal rollback failure scenarios based on which you must take rectification action to re-synchronize the data. |
|
|
Cloud Native BNG User Plane |
|
|
You can now configure IPv6 Neighbor Discovery (ND) parameters on the access interface that facilitates address resolution, router discovery, and duplicate address detection. The IPv6 ND protocol discovers and establishes communication with neighboring IPv6 nodes within a local network. This feature introduces the following changes:
|
|
|
Routing |
|
|
Autonomous System Boundary Router Isolation and Adjacency Control for LSA Overflows |
In a network employing an Autonomous System Boundary Router (ASBR) and other routers, you are now assured of uninterrupted traffic flow even if the ASBR generates LSAs that exceed the limit you configured. This is made possible as you can now isolate ASBRs and also control the duration of adjacency in the EXCHANGE or LOADING phase. By isolating the ASBR from its immediate neighbors, the remaining network topology can continue to function without disruption, effectively preventing any adverse impact on traffic flow. This approach also simplifies the recovery process, as manual intervention is only necessary for the immediate neighbors of the ASBR routers. This feature introduces these changes: CLI: YANG Data Model:
(see GitHub, YANG Data Models Navigator) |
|
EIBGP Policy-Based Multipath with Equal Cost Multipath and Default VRF |
Now, with the inclusion of the default VRF in policy-based multipath selection, you gain control over traffic distribution and load-balancing capabilities across various BGP variations, including iBGP, eBGP, and eiBGP. This is achieved through the utilization of BGP communities, nexthops, and path types. Additionally, by employing the equal cost multipath (ECMP) option in eiBGP, this feature provides the capability to select ECMP across the iBGP paths chosen for eiBGP. The feature introduces these changes: CLI: The keywords route-policy and equal-cost are added to the command: YANG Data Model:
(see GitHub, YANG Data Models Navigator) |
|
We have enabled better label space management and hardware resource utilization by making MPLS label allocation more flexible. This flexibility means you can now assign these labels to only those routes that are advertised to their peer routes, ensuring better label space management and hardware resource utilization. Prior to this release, label allocation was done regardless of whether the routes being advertised. This resulted in inefficient use of label space. |
|
|
Protection of Directly connected eBGP neighbors through Interface-based LPTS Identifier |
We have enhanced the network security for directly connected eBGP neighbors by ensuring that only packets originating from designated eBGP neighbors can traverse through a single interface, thus preventing IP spoofing. This is made possible because we've now added an interface identifier for Local Packet Transport Services (LPTS). LPTS filters and polices the packets based on the type of flow rate you configure. The feature introduces these changes: CLI: YANG Data Model:
|
|
Segment Routing |
|
|
Configurable Filters for IS-IS Advertisements to BGP-Link State |
This feature allows you to configure a route map to filter IS-IS route advertisements to BGP-Link State (LS). It also provides a per-area configuration knob to disable IS-IS advertisements for external and propagated prefixes. This configuration of filters hence reduces the amount of redundant data for external and interarea prefixes sent to the BGP - LS clients. The feature introduces exclude-external , exclude-interarea , and route-policy name optional keywords in the distribute link-state command. |
|
This feature allows Dynamic Tree Segment Identifier (Tree-SID) deployment where IPv6 Multicast payload is used for optimally transporting IP VPN multicast traffic over the provider network, using SR-PCE as a controller. This implementation supports IPv6 only for the Dynamic Tree-SID. Currently, the Static Tree-SID supports IPV4 payloads only, not the IPv6 payloads. |
|
|
Starting from this release, Multicast Nonstop Forwarding supports Tree-SID (Tree Segment Identifier). This ensures that traffic forwarding continues without interruptions whenever the active RSP fails over to the standby RSP. This feature prevents hardware or software failures on the control plane from disrupting the forwarding of existing packet flows through the router for Tree-SID. Thus, ensuring improved network availability, network stability, preventing routing flaps, and no loss of user sessions while the routing protocol information is being restored. The feature modifies the show mrib nsf private command. |
|
|
BGP- Link State (LS) is a mechanism by which LS and Traffic Engineering (TE) information can be collected from networks and shared with external components (such as, Segment Routing Path Computation Element (SR-PCE) or Crossword Optimization Engine (COE)) using the BGP routing protocol. The feature gathers the Traffic Engineering Policy information that is locally available in a node and advertises it into BGP-LS updates. The operators can now take informed decisions based on the information that is gathered on their network's path computation, reoptimization, service placement, network visualization, and so on. The feature introduces these changes: CLI: YANG Data Model:
|
|
|
SR-Multicast: Tree-SID Label Range Validation in North-Bound API |
The SR-PCE provides a north-bound HTTP-based API to establish communication between the SR-PCE and the Cisco Crosswork Optimization Engine. This release adds support for the following:
For more information, refer to the Cisco Crosswork Optimization Engine User Guides. |
|
You can now enable the router to record the number of bytes transmitted on a specific egress interface for IPv6 traffic using the SRv6 locator counter. You can use this data to create deterministic data tools to anticipate and plan for future capacity planning solutions. This feature introduces or modifies the following changes: CLI: YANG Data Models:
(see GitHub, YANG Data Models Navigator) |
|
|
MPLS |
|
|
You can now enable the router to collect only the per-prefix statistics, that is, the aggregate statistics for all paths available for a destination prefix. This helps conserve the hardware resources of the router. In earlier releases, there was no option to disable per-path statistics collection. The router collected both per-prefix statistics and per-path statistics for each destination prefix. When there were multiple paths for a destination prefix, the router required much more hardware resources to store the per-path statistics. This feature introduces these changes: CLI: YANG Data Model:
|
|
|
We have optimized network performance and enabled efficient utilization of resources for numbered tunnels based on real-time traffic by automatically adding or removing tunnels between two endpoints. This is made possible because this release introduces support for auto-bandwidth TE++ for numbered tunnels, expanding upon the previous support for only named tunnels, letting you define explicit paths and allocate the bandwidth to each tunnel. The feature introduces these changes:
|
|
|
Broadband Network Gateway |
|
|
We've now made the resolution of DNS queries faster by including the DNS server information in the IPv6 Neighbor Discovery (nd) Router Advertisement (RA) for PPPoE subscribers. We've enabled the transmission of DNS information to devices that don't support DHCP thus expanding the scope of address resolution beyond DHCP-broadcasting. This feature introduces the following changes:
|
|
|
Interface and Hardware Component |
|
|
Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) based Bit Error Ratio (BER) measures the error rate in a received message by dividing the number of errors by the total number of bits transmitted. This metric allows you to evaluate the performance of the communication system and ensure the integrity of transmitted data. A high BER indicates a higher rate of errors and potential issues with the communication system, whereas a low BER indicates a high-quality system with minimal errors. This release extends CRC-based BER support for the following line cards:
|
|
|
This release introduces the support to disable the laser squelching. By disabling laser squelch, you can detect weak signals embedded within the laser source noise and simultaneously reduce processing overhead in systems with stable laser sources and minimal noise. When laser squelch is enabled, the system shuts down the laser in case of an Optical Transport Network (OTN) failure. The feature introduces these changes: CLI:
YANG DATA models:
|
|
|
Small frame padding prevents packet drops caused by network congestion. If the minimum frame size requirement isn’t met, the frames drop, this enhancement ensures that your hardware ASIC adds extra bytes to the payload, thereby fulfilling the 68-byte minimum frame size requirement. By doing so, small frame padding significantly enhances network reliability and minimizes the risk of dropped frames due to congestion-related issues. Previously, this feature was supported on the second and third generations of the ASR 9000 Series Ethernet line cards. Starting from this release, we extend this feature support to the fourth and fifth generations of the ASR 9000 Series Ethernet line cards. |
|
|
With this release, the support for DP04QSDD-HE0 optical module is extended to the following hardware:
|
|
|
Multicast |
|
|
With Dynamic Source-Specific Multicast (SSM) Translation, the router with BGP C-multicast routing, will now be able to avoid or prevent sending duplicate packets from the RP-PE (Rendezvous Point–Provider Edge) to all receiver PE nodes. This feature reduces the consumption of hardware resources by not programming (*, G) entries in the forwarding tables, and also avoids sending duplicate packets on PE nodes and eases debugging. The feature introduces these changes: CLI:
YANG Data Model: New XPath for:
(see Github, YANG Data Models Navigator) |
|
|
Netflow |
|
|
During the transition from conventional IP/MPLS networks to SRv6-based networks, the necessity for monitoring SRv6 traffic flow becomes crucial. This feature enables IPFIX to effectively monitor SRv6 IP traffic flow from network devices. The feature introduces these changes: CLI:
The srv6 keyword is supported on fourth generation and later ASR 9000 Series High Density Ethernet line cards. |
|
|
This feature introduces support for simultaneous L2 and L3 flow monitoring. Now, you can configure IP Flow Information Export (IPFIX) to actively monitor and record end-to-end L2 and L3 flow information elements from network devices. Previously, only L2 or L3 flow could be monitored at a time. The feature introduces these changes: CLI:
The l2-l3 keyword is supported on fourth generation and later ASR 9000 Series High Density Ethernet line cards. |
|
|
You can now monitor traffic from a specific source by configuring the sFlow agent ID with the specific IPv4 or IPv6 address. Upon configuration, you can determine the source of the sFlow data. Earlier, by default, the sFlow agent ID had the source address of the sFlow export packet. The feature introduces these changes: CLI New Command: Modified Command:

|
|
L2VPN and Ethernet Services |
|
|
The EVPN port-active mode configuration is now modified to support hot standby. In a hot standby bundle interface, the main and subinterfaces remain up. This functionality ensures fast convergence of standby to active transition. Previously, the interfaces in a standby node would be down. During the failure and recovery of active node, the standby node transitions through the Out-of-Service (OOS) state to the Up state. If you still want the nodes to transition through the OOS state, use the access-signal out-of-service command to revert to the previous behavior. The feature introduces these changes: CLI: YANG Data Model:
|
|
|
The maximum number of Ethernet Flow Points (EFPs) that can be added to a bundle interface is now enhanced to 40960 (40K). This greatly improves the flexibility to manage the traffic with different EFP filters. Note
|
|
|
You can now facilitate optimal traffic load balancing across the Virtual Network Forwarders (VNFs) and minimize control plane updates when the VNFs or virtual machines (VMs) are moved across Top of Racks (ToR) by setting the EVPN gateway IP address in the EVPN route type 5 network layer reachability information (NLRI) that advertises IPv4 and IPv6 addresses. With this functionality, only one IP prefix route is withdrawn ensuring fast traffic switchover and reduced convergence time in the event of failure. Previously, the gateway IP address field in the EVPN route type 5 NLRI was not used. By default, the NLRI advertisement included the EVPN gateway IP address of zero, which was represented as 0.0.0.0 for IPv4 and :: for IPv6. This resulted in the withdrawal of all prefixes one by one in the event of a failure, leading to traffic loss. The feature introduces these changes: CLI: |
|
|
System Security |
|
|
Display Username for Failed Authentication for Telnet Protocols |
With this feature, we have enhanced the security of the routers and introduced better tracking functionality to the router. The failed authentication sys log now displays the details of users who tried to log in but failed due to authentication failure. With this feature provisioned, the router can now display the user ID of both SSH and Telnet protocols. In earlier releases, this feature was available only for SSH protocol. This feature introduces the following change: CLI: aaa display-login-failed-users . YANG DATA Model: New XPaths for |
|
Multi-Tier Certificate Authority for Trustpoint Authentication |
Apart from the root certificate authority (CA), you can now use a subordinate CA to issue certificates and authenticate your network devices. This feature is beneficial when you have an existing CA hierarchy where it is not the root CA but the subordinate CA that issues the leaf or router certificates. In earlier releases, you could associate only a single CA, not a multi-tier CA, to a trustpoint. And, you could use only the root CA certificate to enroll the router certificates. This feature modifies the show crypto ca certificates command to display the Trusted Certificate Chain field. |
|
Public Key-Based Authentication of SSH Clients on Cisco IOS XR Routers |
You are now assured of cryptographic strength even as you avail of automated password-less login while establishing SSH connections with the server. With the password and keyboard-interactive authentication, Cisco IOS XR routers configured as SSH clients now support public key-based authentication. In this authentication method, passwords need not be sent over the network; hence, it provides an additional layer of security and aids in automation processes. This feature is available only for users locally configured on the router; not those configured on remote servers. Previous releases supported SSH public key-based authentication only for Cisco IOS XR routers configured as SSH servers. The feature introduces these changes:
|
|
We have now enabled Secure Key Integration Protocol (SKIP), a key-exchange protocol, on your routers to ensure a long-term secure MACsec. This is made possible because the SKIP protocol facilitates communication with external quantum devices, thereby enabling your routers to use Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) to create and transmit secure MACsec keys. Using QKD overcomes a critical problem in a post-quantum world where the current cryptographic systems are no longer secure due to the advent of quantum computers. This feature introduces these changes:
|
|
|
System Management |
|
|
You can now track an object (for example, an interface) and configure to error-disable a loopback interface when the tracked object state changes. This is beneficial when the loopback interface is the source of multiple tunnels and all tunnels need to be brought down simultaneously. Earlier, you couldn't error-disable loopback interface. |
|
|
PTP Class B support on A99-400GE-SE/TR and A99-10X400GE-XSE/TR |
Based on the IEEE 1588-2008 standard, Precision Time Protocol (PTP) is a protocol that defines a method to synchronize clocks in a network for networked measurement and control systems. With this release, PTP Class B performance is now supported on the following platforms:
|
|
General Administration |
|
|
Auto-Save and Copy Router Configuration Using Public Key Authentication |
You can now experience passwordless authentication while automatically saving running configurations and securely copying them on the router. The feature uses public key-based authentication, a secure logging method using a secure shell (SSH), which provides increased data security. This feature offers automatic authentication and single sign-on benefits, which also aids in a secure automation process. This feature modifies configuration commit auto-save and copy command to support password-less authentication. |
|
System Monitoring |
|
|
You can now assign a facility number per remote syslog server, which the system inherits to calculate the priority value of the syslog messages sent. You can also configure the source address to choose the interface to send remote syslog packets per remote server. The feature introduces these changes: CLI:

Deprecated features
Starting with Cisco IOS XR release 7.10.1, the performance-measurement {delay-profile | liveness-profile} {sr-policy | endpoint | interface} name name CLI is deprecated. Old configurations stored in NVRAM will be rejected at boot-up. As a result, performance measurement delay and liveness named profiles using the old CLI must be re-configured using the performance-measurement {delay-profile | liveness-profile} name name CLI.
 Note |
The default performance measurement delay and liveness profiles configured using the performance-measurement { delay-profile | liveness-profile} { sr-policy | endpoint | interface} default commands are still valid and unaffected. |
For more information, see CLI Changes for Segment Routing Performance Measurement section under the Link Delay Measurement topic in Segment Routing Configuration Guide for Cisco ASR 9000 Series Routers, IOS XR Release 7.10.x.

For ZTP, In Cisco IOS XR Release 7.3.1 and earlier, the system accepts the device sending user-class = "exr-config"; however starting Cisco IOS XR Release 7.3.2 and later, you must use only user-class = "xr-config".
In Cisco IOS XR Release 7.3.2 and later, use:
host cisco-rp0 { hardware ethernet e4:c7:22:be:10:ba; fixed-address 172.30.12.54; if exists user-class and option user-class = "iPXE" { filename = "http://172.30.0.22/boot.ipxe"; } elsif exists user-class and option user-class = "xr-config" { filename = "http://172.30.0.22/scripts/cisco-rp0_ztp.sh"; } }
Supported Transceiver Modules
To determine the transceivers that Cisco hardware device supports, refer to the Transceiver Module Group (TMG) Compatibility Matrix tool.
Supported Modular Port Adapters
For the compatibility details of Modular Port Adapters (MPAs) on the line cards, see the datasheet of that specific line card.
Production Software Maintenance Updates (SMUs)
A production SMU is a SMU that is formally requested, developed, tested, and released. Production SMUs are intended for use in a live network environment and are formally supported by the Cisco TAC and the relevant development teams. Software bugs identified through software recommendations or Bug Search Tools are not a basis for production SMU requests.
For information on production SMU types, refer the Production SMU Types section of the IOS XR Software Maintenance Updates (SMUs) guide.
Upgrading Cisco IOS XR Software
Cisco IOS XR Software is installed and activated from modular packages, allowing specific features or software patches to be installed, upgraded, or downgraded without affecting unrelated processes. Software packages can be upgraded or downgraded on all supported card types, or on a single card (node).
Software packages are installed from Route Processor Module (RPM) files that contain one or more software components.
The upgrade document is available along with the software images.
Note |
If you have mLACP/ICCP Redundancy Model setup, ensure that you upgrade the active and standby nodes to the same IOS XR version while upgrading to a newer version of the ASR 9000 router. |
