When you run BFD on link bundles, you can run an independent BFD session on each underlying physical interface that is part of that bundle.
When BFD is running on a link bundle member, the following layers of connectivity are effectively tested as part of the interface state monitoring for BFD:
–
–
–
The BFD agent on each bundle member link monitors state changes on the link. BFD agents for sessions running on bundle member links communicate with a bundle manager. The bundle manager determines the state of member links and the overall availability of the bundle. The state of the member links contributes to the overall state of the bundle based on the threshold of minimum active links or minimum active bandwidth that is configured for that bundle.
BFD Echo Latency Detection—Beginning in Cisco IOS XR 4.0.1, you can configure BFD sessions on non-bundle interfaces to bring down a BFD session when it exceeds the configured echo latency tolerance.
BFD Echo Startup Validation—Beginning in Cisco IOS XR Release 4.0.1, you can verify that the echo packet path is working and within configured latency thresholds before starting a BFD session on non-bundle interfaces.
For more information about BFD Per Member Link, refer to the Cisco ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services Router Interface and Hardware Component Configuration Guide.

Each ACL includes an action element (permit or deny) and a filter element based on criteria such as source address, destination address, protocol, and protocol-specific parameters.
Prefix lists are used in route maps and route filtering operations and can be used as an alternative to access lists in many Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) route filtering commands. A prefix is a portion of an IP address, starting from the far left bit of the far left octet. By specifying exactly how many bits of an address belong to a prefix, you can then use prefixes to aggregate addresses and perform a function on them, such as redistribution (filter routing updates).
Hardware Limitations:

Restrictions:
–
Attaching ACL having a nexthop option in the egress direction.
Modifying an ACL attached in the egress direction having nexthop.

•
Cisco IOS XR Software Release 3.9.0 added support on the Cisco ASR 9000 Series Router for IPFRR (IP Fast ReRoute), a set of technologies used in order to rapidly converge traffic flows around link and/or node failures. Only MLPPP encapsulation channels on the OC-12 SONET interface can be protected by IP-FRR in Cisco IOS XR Software Release 4.1.0.
•
Cisco IOS XR Software Release 3.9.0 added support on the Cisco ASR 9000 Series Router for the Layer 2 Multicast Limit feature, which supports IGMP Snooping based limits for both the maximum number of allowed multicast channels per subscriber and the maximum bandwidth available for multicast per subscriber.
•
Cisco IOS XR Software Release 3.9.0 added support on the Cisco ASR 9000 Series Router for Local Traffic Mirroring (EFP to EFP) and also the option of appending a VLAN tag on the destination port for transport across an Ethernet network. Traffic Mirroring copies traffic from one or more Layer 2 interfaces or sub-interfaces, including Layer 2 link bundle interfaces/sub-interfaces, and sends the copied traffic to one or more destinations for analysis by a network analyzer or other monitoring device.
On a switch, unicast traffic from A to B is only forwarded to the B port. Therefore, the network analyzer does not see this traffic. When the Traffic Mirroring feature is enabled, the network analyzer is attached to a port that is configured to receive a copy of every packet that host A sends. This port is called a traffic mirroring port.
Currently, the Cisco ASR 9000 Series Router only supports Local SPAN and R-SPAN.
A maximum of 8 monitor sessions, and 800 source ports are supported.
You can configure 800 source ports on a single monitor session or configure an aggregate total of 800 source ports on up to 8 different monitor sessions.
The following SPAN types are not supported:
–
Traffic is mirrored to a remote site via a GRE tunnel.
–
Traffic is mirrored to a remote site via an MPLS pseudowire, instead of using a standard destination interface. (Plan to be supported in 4.0.1 release.)
–
In this case, the source for the mirrored traffic is not simply a set of interfaces, but is a full bridge-domain.
–
In this case, flow and ACL are applied in mirroring the traffic.
Cisco recommends not mirroring more 15% of total transit traffic. On TenGigE or bundle interfaces there is a limit of 1.5G on each ingress and egress traffic port to be mirrored.
SPAN Configurations:
To create a "monitor-session" in global config:
-monitor-session <name>
- destination interface <dst_interface>
To attach a source port in local-plane config:
-interface <src-interface> l2transport
- monitor-session <name> [direction {rx_only | tx_only]
SPAN Configuration Samples:
SPAN with Physical Interfaces (Local SPAN)
The following example shows a basic configuration for SPAN with physical interfaces. When traffic flows over the point to point cross connect between gig0/2/0/19 and gig0/2/0/11, packets received and transmitted on gig0/2/0/19 will also get mirrored to gig0/2/0/15.

•
Cisco IOS XR Software Release 3.7.3 introduced EFP Egress Filtering on the Cisco ASR 9000 Series Router.
For more information on configuring the EFP Egress Filtering feature including the associated EFP Egress Filtering commands on the Cisco ASR 9000 Series router, refer to the Egress EFP Filtering on the Cisco ASR 9000 Series Router feature module.
•
In prior releases the Cisco ASR 9000 Series Router acting as a bridge flooded broadcast and unknown unicast traffic to all the forwarding engines on all the line cards.
In Cisco IOS XR Software Release 3.7.2 if a pseudo wire is configured in a bridge domain all broadcast and unknown unicast traffic is flooded to all line cards in the system in order to attain fast convergence. With Cisco IOS XR Software Release 3.7.3 the flood optimization feature changes this default behavior. FGID will get programmed based on the primary paths on which the pseudo wire is going out and traffic will get flooded only to the line cards on which the pseudo wire resides. This mode is called Bandwidth Optimization mode.
But if a Fast ReRoute event occurs when fast convergence is set up it will take a longer time to complete the reroute as more hardware programming such as adding bridge ports etc. needs to be done. So for customers who are sensitive to this increased delay a command called flood mode convergence-optimized is provided in Cisco IOS XR Software Release 3.7.3. Use this flood mode convergence-optimized command to switch back to the convergence optimized mode where traffic gets flooded to all the line cards.
With this flood mode convergence-optimized command users are able to turn on/off the bandwidth optimized mode.
For more information on the flooding disable command and other Layer 2 VPLS commands on the Cisco ASR 9000 Series router, refer to the Point to Point Layer 2 Services Commands section in the Cisco ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services Router L2VPN and Ethernet Services Command Reference here:
•
In Cisco IOS XR software Release 3.7.3 as part of pseudo wire flood optimization, the Layer 3 interface list for a pseudo wire is now based on Virtual Connection labels. By using ECMP Link Bundle hashing, the Layer 3 interface list for a pseudo wire can be condensed to a single Layer 3 interface. This Layer 3 interface (slot and network protocol flood mask) is derived from the ordered array of Layer 3 interface list (masks).
•
Cisco IOS XR software Release 3.7.3 added support for the Early Fast Discard command. This command was added to process all high priority packets
Command syntax:
(config)# hw-module location <loc> early-fast-discard(config-early-fast-discard)# mode [outer-encap-only | include-inner-encap](config-early-fast-discard)# vlan-cos <0-8> vlan-op [lt | ge]The defaults are 6 and ge (greater than or equal to)(config-early-fast-discard)# ip-prec <0-8> ip-op [lt | ge]The defaults are 6 and ge (greater than or equal to)(config-early-fast-discard)# mpls-exp <0-8> mpls-op [lt | ge]The defaults are 6 and ge (greater than or equal to)(config)# no hw-module location <loc> early-fast-discard•
Cisco IOS XR software Release 3.7.3 added support for the user to override the Power Management feature in order to configure extra line cards without full power supply redundancy.
This feature allows a card to be forced to power up, regardless of an unprogrammed EEPROM power draw value. As with the ROMMON variable, this feature is intended for temporary use. After the cookie value has been programmed, remove this configuration by repeating the CLI command with the ''no'' option.
Command example:
RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:ios(admin-config)# hw-mod power override location <loc>•
Starting with Cisco IOS XR software Release 3.7.3, mrouter and membership states on the Cisco ASR 9000 Series Router no longer need to be relearned after a port goes down. Once a port goes down, the IGMP Snooping feature immediately removes all group membership states from that port. Once an mrouter port goes down, the IGMP Snooping feature removes the port from the list of mrouter ports and removes that port from the flood set of all multicast routes.
New CLI:
tcn_relearning [cisco | rfc4541 | none]For more information on the IGMP Snooping feature on the Cisco ASR 9000 Series router, refer to the Implementing Layer 2 Multicast using IGMP Snooping on Cisco ASR 9000 Series Routers section in the Cisco ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services Router Multicast Configuration Guide here:
•
Cisco IOS XR software Release 3.7.3 improves the Cisco ASR 9000 Series Router VRRP & FRR failover time after a hardware module reload to less than or equal to one second.
•
Layer 2 VPNs can provide pseudo wire resiliency through their routing protocols. When the connectivity between end-to-end PE routers fails, an alternative path to the directed LDP session and the user data takes over. With Cisco IOS XR software Release 3.7.3, the user can fall-back to the preferred path once it has been restored.

RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:vkg_ro1_a(config-t1)#cablelength short ?133ft 0-133ft266ft 134-266ft399ft 267-399ft533ft 400-533ft655ft 534-655ftHowever, when using the cablelength short command on a 4-Port Channelized T1/E1 SPA in Cisco ASR 9000 Series Router Software Release 4.1.0, only the 133ft option (for cable lengths from 0 to 133 feet) works. The other values that are greater than 133 feet (266, 399, 533, or 655) all cause the T1 controller to go down. The workaround is to restart the controller after you set the cable length to 266, 399, 533, or 655 feet. The cablelength long command works correctly.
Caveats
Caveats describe unexpected behavior in Cisco IOS XR software releases. Severity-1 caveats are the most serious caveats; severity-2 caveats are less serious.
This section lists the caveats for Cisco ASR 9000 Series Router Software Release 4.1 and the Cisco ASR 9000 Series platform.
Open Cisco IOS XR Software Release 4.1 Caveats
The following open caveats apply to Cisco IOS XR Software Release and are not platform specific:
•
Basic Description:
IPv6 svd role shown as "Standard" even without any ip config on ints.
Symptom:
This occurs when there is an incorrect role calculation for IPv6 AFI. A typical occurrence would be enabling IPv6 ACL on the interface which is being used only for IPv4 forwarding. This causes SVD infra to assume that IPv6 forwarding is also intended on the interface and the SVD card role would change to Core/Customer/Standard based on the usual role calculation rules. Incorrect role calculation could cause more VRFs/prefixes to be downloaded on the card as an impact. There should not be any forwarding impact due to this caveat.
Conditions:
IPv6 Features (for example, IPv6 ACL, IPv6 MTU, and so forth) are enabled on the interface without assigning it an IPv6 address (Global or LinkLocal) via ipv6 address or ipv6 enable command.

None.
Recovery:
Remove the IPv6 features from the interfaces which are not being used for IPv6 forwarding. If an interface on which IPv6 features were enabled and then VRF was configured on the interface, the process restart rsi_agent on the node where the interface is hosted is also required.
For the interfaces not being used for IPv6:

Basic Description:
4-10GE-ITU/C and 16OC48-POS/DPT have hierarchy issue in entity mib.
Symptom:
In the ENTITY-MIBs entPhysicalTable, some of the 'portslot' entities for a PLIM only show up when polled via community-strings or usernames with the SystemOwner configuration attribute.
–
–
–
Conditions:
This issue occurs when the PLIM with entPhysicalName equals "Cisco CRS-1 4 port 10GE (C-band) DWDM PLIM" entPhysicalVendorType = "cevModuleCrs14x10GeCDwdmPlim"
Workaround:
Poll with community-strings or usernames with the SystemOwner configuration.
An alternative workaround is to restart the mibd_entity process prior to initial entPhysicalTable discovery after reload
Recovery:
Restart the mibd_entity process.
•
Basic Description:
Ping process crashed with parallel pings.
Symptom:
Ping process crashes.
Conditions:
This issue is seen when parallel pings are performed on multiple vty sessions.
Workaround:
None.
Recovery:
None.
•
Basic Description:
PE not sending route-refresh request after reconfiguring VRF.
Symptom:
PE is not sending route-refresh request to RR on reconfiguring VRF. This is visible in the show bgp neighbor CLI output where the sent counter for refresh requests does not increment on VRF RT config changes.
As a result, the updated VRF config is not in effect.
Conditions:
This issue occurs after configuring and unconfiguring RT SAFI between PE and RR, with the RR side still having the RT SAFI configured for the PE neighbor. When a new vrf is configured on PE, the PE is not sending route-refresh request to the RR.
Workaround:
The workaround is to remove the RT SAFI config under the RR for the PE nbr.
Recovery
To recover, you can manually issue router fresh via clear bgp vpnv4 unicast soft in.
•
Basic Description:
RR sending full vpn table to PE though no route-refresh from PE.
Symptom:
RR sends a full vpn table although RT Constraint is configured between RR and PE.
On the RR, the "show bgp neighbor" counters for advertised prefixes increment correspondingly to reflect a large number of prefixes advertised to PE.
Conditions:
This issue occurs when a VRF on the PE is unconfigured and reconfigured within a short interval.
Workaround:
Have a interval of approximately one minute before reconfiguring a VRF after unconfiguring it.
Recovery:
No recovery is necessary if the workaround is used.
•
Basic Description:
P2MP perm traffic loss on the tail doing 'clear pim topology.'
Symptom:
This issue occurs with permanent P2MP multicast traffic loss.
Conditions:
This condition occurs when doing a 'clear pim topology' on the tail node.
Workaround:
Restart the PIM process (process restart) instead of doing "clear pim topology".
Alternatively, remove the IGMP/PIM Join on the decap and rejoin.
Recovery:
Restart the PIM process (process restart).
or
Remove/add multicast-routing config related to P2MP.
or
Remove S,G IGMP/PIM. Join on decap, and rejoin the S,G.
•
Basic Description:
Harmless sysdb_mc timeout messages periodically pops up in the console
Symptom:
Harmless sysdb_mc timeout messages periodically pops up in the console, for example:
RP/0/RSP1/CPU0:Apr 27 00:41:58.486 : sysdb_mc[380]: %SYSDB-SMC-7-TIMEOUT :Message #0x2004bd2e state:0x13fe5326, gid(1011),destined for shared plane,timed out having received 0 of 1 expected responses: returning error to clientUnknown. Check for potential transport issues within the system, or deadlockedSysDB processes.Conditions:
This issue occurs with an RSP switchover.
Workaround:
None. However, these messages are level-7 messages and are not functionally impacting.
Recovery:
Issue a RSP switchover.
•
Basic Description:
SNMP bulk config, or load from saved config, or rollback shows error.
Symptom:
SNMP bulk configuration, or load from saved configuration, or rollback (which include multiple SNMP commands) can cause following messages to print on console.
RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:Apr 27 19:26:59.446 : snmpd[1112]: %SNMP-SNMP-4-VIEWOID_NOT_FOUND : The command "snmp view li-view ifMIB included" could not be applied at this time because the oid "ifMIB" does not belong to a known MIB module.RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:Apr 27 19:26:59.481 : snmpd[1112]: %SNMP-SNMP-4-VIEWOID_NOT_FOUND : The command "snmp view li-view ciscoTap2MIB included" could not be applied at this time because the oid "ciscoTap2MIB" does not belong to a known MIB module.RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:Apr 27 19:26:59.495 : snmpd[1112]: %SNMP-SNMP-4-VIEWOID_NOT_FOUND : The command "snmp view li-view ciscoIpTapMIB included" could not be applied at this time because the oid "ciscoIpTapMIB" does not belong to a known MIB module.Conditions:
SNMP bulk configuration, or load from saved configuration, or rollback (which include multiple SNMP commands) can cause the error messages.
This behavior is observed since the MIB is not loaded and the OID translation is not in place. After few seconds, this gets resolved, and you can query the MIB successfully.
Workaround:
None. When this behavior is observed during SNMP configuration for lawful intercept, it still allows adding taps. Lawful intercept functionality does not impact in any manner.
Recovery:
None. These are harmless messages and do not impact any functionality.
•
Basic Description:
mibd_interfaces crash while polling cIpMRouteNextHopTable.
Symptom:
In Cisco IOS-XR a crash of process mibd_interface might be observed when the mroute mib is polled.
Conditions:
Multicast is configured. The OID cIpMRouteNextHopTable of mroute mib is polled.
Workaround:
Not available.
Recovery:
The process is restarted automatically.
•
Basic Description:
Not able to modify RPL and delete prefix-set in a single commit.
Symptom:
When a policy that is attached directly or indirectly to an attach point needs to be modified, a single commit operation cannot be performed when:
–
–
Workaround:
The commit must be performed in two steps:
1.
2.
Caveats Specific to the Cisco ASR 9000 Series Router
The following caveats are specific to the Cisco ASR 9000 Series platform:
•
Basic Description:
Proc restart ospfv3 with scale causes a neighbor flap: Dead timer expired.
Symptom:
This issue occurs when PE-CE OSPFv3 neighbor-ship flaps following to ospfv3 process restart.
Conditions:
This occurs with 250 Subinterfaces on POS48 with Dual stack vrf. IPv4 has eBGP and IPv6 has OSPFv3.
Workaround:
Extend the default dead timer from 40 sec to 60 sec.
Recovery:
This recovers on its own with one flap on few interfaces among the 250.
•
Basic Description:
L3 span in both directions causes traffic drops for VPLS and VPWS traffic.
Symptom:
On the VPLS core interface if you have both ingress and egress span enabled, you could have some packets dropped.
Conditions:
L3 SPAN on both the ingress and egress direction of the core interface has to be configured.
Workaround:
Have L3 SPAN configuration on the core interface in one direction only.
Recovery:
Remove L3 SPAN configuration from the core interface in one direction.
•
Basic Description:
mibd_interface crash on mib walk with lldp feature enabled.
Symptom:
mibd_interface process crashes on mib walk.
Conditions:
When doing a mib walk, mibd_interface process could crash.
Workaround:
None.
Recovery:
Self recovery. Process comes back up fine.
•
Basic Description:
IGMP joins not being forwarded on the PW over ASR 9000 Ethernet Line Cards and ASR9K-SIP-700.
Symptom:
IGMP host reports do not propagate through the network as expected.
Conditions:
This behavior is observed when IGMP snooping is enabled in the L2VPN bridge domain with flow based load balancing configured using IP parameters.
When the mrouter port is a pseudo-wire, it is possible for the host reports to be dropped due to inaccurate flood optimization.
Workaround:
If the problem is seen, the only viable solution is to use static groups instead of dynamic ones.
Recovery:
None.
Example:
(Host) ------- RTR1 ====== PW ====== RTR2--------- (Querier)
In the above example, it is possible that the reports sent by the host are not propagated to RTR2 from RTR1.
•
Basic Description:
MTU is not inherited from the PPP bundle on 8XCHT1E1 SPA.
Symptom:
On a multilink PPP bundle, packets larger than 1500 bytes are dropped by the 8XCHT1E1 SPA. Packets less than or equal to 1500 are not dropped.
Conditions:
This issue occurs when configuring a bundle with MTU more than 1500 bytes. The problem is that member serial interfaces are not inheriting the bundle MTU size.
Workaround:
There is no workaround. However, as long as the bundle MTU is configured with a value less than or equal to 1500, the feature works.
Recovery:
None.
•
Basic Description:
Ethernet CFM over bundle - Domain d2 Ping and traceroute test fails.
Symptom:
CFM frames injected or forwarded to bundle interfaces or sub interfaces ( with L2 transport configuration ) get dropped in the forwarding engine due to an invalid cross connect ID or zero cross connect ID.
Conditions:
This affects all CFM/Y.1731 functionality for MEPs/MIPs on bundle interfaces or subinterfaces with L2 transport configured.
Workaround:
None.
Recovery:
Disable and re-enable CFM configuration related to the affected interface. This disables and enables CFM service for MIPs.
•
Basic Description:
SNMP bulk config, or load from saved config, or rollback will show error.
Symptom:
SNMP bulk configuration, or load from saved configuration, or rollback (which include multiple SNMP commands) can cause the following messages to print on the console:
RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:Apr 27 19:26:59.446 : snmpd[1112]: %SNMP-SNMP-4-VIEWOID_NOT_FOUND : The command "snmp view li-view ifMIB included" could not be applied at this time because the oid "ifMIB" does not belong to a known MIB module.RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:Apr 27 19:26:59.481 : snmpd[1112]: %SNMP-SNMP-4-VIEWOID_NOT_FOUND : The command "snmp view li-view ciscoTap2MIB included" could not be applied at this time because the oid "ciscoTap2MIB" does not belong to a known MIB module.RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:Apr 27 19:26:59.495 : snmpd[1112]: %SNMP-SNMP-4-VIEWOID_NOT_FOUND : The command "snmp view li-view ciscoIpTapMIB included" could not be applied at this time because the oid "ciscoIpTapMIB" does not belong to a known MIB module.Conditions:
SNMP bulk configuration, or load from saved configuration, or rollback (which include multiple SNMP commands) can cause the error messages.
This behavior is observed since the MIB is not loaded and the OID translation is not in place. After few seconds, this gets resolved, and you can query the MIB successfully.
Workaround:
None. When this behavior is observed during the SNMP configuration for lawful intercept, it still allows adding taps, and lawful intercept functionality is not impacted.
Recovery:
None. These are harmless messages that do not impact any functionality.
•
Basic Description:
Missing Src XID for punted IGMP pkts leads queries to wrong BD.
Symptom:
IGMP queries are going to the wrong BD.
Conditions:
There are multiple bridge domains and pseudo-wires on ASR9K-SIP-700 LC interfaces, and IGMP snooping is enabled.
Workaround:
None.
Recovery:
None.
•
Basic Description:
ASR9K: Line Card Issue with NP lockup.
Symptom:
NP lockup may result on an automatic LC reload with an error of PLATFORM-DIAGS-3-PUNT_FABRIC_DATA_PATH_FAILED.
Conditions:
This behavior has been seen when running Cisco IOS XR Software Release 4.1.0 and processing an IPv4 packet which triggers a DMA operation.
Workaround:
None available.
