ASR 9001 Licensing

Jordi Benet
Level 1
Level 1

Hi,

I want to use the nV feature to cluster 2 ASR 9001.

For that I will need to add the A9K-NV-CLUSTR-LIC license.

What would the A9K-NVSAT5-LIC do for me? (nV Host License for up to 5 nV clients) I would need it to cluster my 2 ASR 9001?

 

I would also like to know if I would require the L-A9K-9001OPT-LIC= (ASR 9001 Advanced Optical License) in order to use 10Gbps fiber connections. What does this license provide to my ASR 9001?

 

Thanks a lot for the help.

Regards,

 

J

Hi.

Let me answer your questions. I wrote an article about licensing on ASR 9000 - http://blog.netfi.co/cisco-asr-9000-licensing/

1. nV Licensing

A9K-NV-CLUSTR-LIC is for nV Edge

A9K-NVSAT5-LIC allows you to connect 5 satellites (9000v, 901 or 903).

Additionaly you need appropriate license on ASR 901 or ASR 903. ASR 9000v doesn't require any additional license. More about it in my article.

2. L-A9K-9001OPT-LIC=

You don't need this license to use 10G links. It allows you to configure G.709/ONT on 10G interfaces.

Thanks a lot Miroslaw. Now it is clear I will only need the A9K-NV-CLUSTR-LIC license

I read your article and now I have a new doubt. I see that there is a license for VRF in L3VPN. If I use VRF-Lite I will require any VRF license for 2 ASR9001?

 

Thanks a lot.

You need AIP or IVRF. You won't be able to commit vrf configuration.

For nV Edge you need only A9K-NV-CLUSTR-LIC.

Thanks a lot Miroslaw for the clarification.
