| Security | Cisco IOS XR Software: Comprehensive security including ACLs, control-plane protection, routing authentication, AAA and TACACS+, SSH, SNMPv3, and RPL support. Layer 2 ACLs: MAC-based filtering under an EVC. Layer 3 ACLs: IPv4 packet attribute-based filtering. Additional security features: 802.1ad L2CP and BPDU filtering, MAC limiting per EFP or bridge domain, unicast/multicast/broadcast storm control, Unknown Unicast Flood Blocking (UUFB), DHCP snooping, URPF, control-plane security, Dynamic ARP Inspection (DAI), and IP Source Guard (IPSG). |
| Multicast | IPv4 Multicast: Supports IGMPv2/v3, PIM-SSM, PIM-SM, PIM SSM Mapping, MSDP, Multicast VPN, and Anycast RP. IGMP v2 and v3 snooping: Layer 2 snooping of IGMP joins at VLAN or pseudowire level, summarizing joins upstream so only watched channels are forwarded in broadband deployments. |
| MPLS L3VPN | MPLS L3VPN: Scalable IPv4 Layer 3 VPN backbone services over MPLS for IP VPN-based value-added services, hosting, commerce, and telephony. Carrier supporting carrier (CSC): Lets an MPLS VPN provider connect remote sites over another provider’s backbone while keeping customer VPN address spaces private (per IETF RFC 4364). Selective VRF Download: Downloads VRF FIB entries only to line cards that host that VRF, increasing chassis FIB scale without loading unused entries. 6PE and 6VPE: Introduces IPv6 from the edge over IPv4/MPLS backbones, without IPv6 addressing restrictions and without impacting the stable IPv4 core. |

| Manageability | Cisco IOS XR Software manageability: Modular CLI, SNMP, CDP, LLDP, and native XML interfaces. Smart Call Home (SCH): Proactive support that detects and reports issues before they affect services, reducing troubleshooting time. Cisco Active Network Abstraction (ANA): Vendor-neutral management framework that discovers and tracks network elements in near real time, aggregating VNEs into a virtual network. Provides simplified OSS integration, a flexible common infrastructure for resource management, and consistent procedures and interfaces for all elements. |
| ETSI standards | Designed to meet (qualification in progress): EN 300 386 Telecommunications Network Equipment (EMC); ETSI 300 019 Storage Class 1.1; ETSI 300 019 Transportation Class 2.3; ETSI 300 019 Stationary Use Class 3.1; EN 55022 Information Technology Equipment (Emissions); EN 55024 Information Technology Equipment (Immunity); EN 50082-1 / EN 61000-6-1 Generic Immunity Standard |
| L2VPN services | Virtual Private LAN Services (VPLS): Connects multiple sites in a single bridged domain over a managed IP/MPLS core, presenting a simple Ethernet interface and allowing flexible bandwidth not tied to physical ports. Hierarchical VPLS (HVPLS): Adds hierarchy at the edge for higher scale, supporting QinQ access and Ethernet over MPLS (pseudowire) access. Virtual Private Wire Service (VPWS) with Ethernet over MPLS (EoMPLS): Transports Ethernet frames across an MPLS core using pseudowires per EFP or per port. Pseudowire redundancy: Allows backup pseudowire definition to protect primary pseudowires. G.8032: Sub-50-ms Ethernet ring protection, compliant with ITU-T G.8032 v2 on Cisco ASR 9000. Multisegment pseudowire stitching: Interworks two pseudowires into a cross-connect relationship. |

BGP Prefix Independent Convergence (PIC): Enables fast convergence of BGP routes using Cisco IOS XR fast-convergence capabilities. |
| Storage humidity | 5% to 95% relative humidity (not to exceed 0.024 kg water per 1 kg of dry air) |
| High availability | MPLS TE-FRR: Provides Layer 3 protection switching and temporary rerouting around failed links, nodes, or paths for MPLS LSPs. Bidirectional Forwarding Detection (BFD): Fast forwarding-path failure detection across media, encapsulations, topologies, and routing protocols. 802.3ad Link Aggregation Bundles: Bundles multiple links for resiliency and load balancing. Multichassis Link Aggregation Group (MC-LAG): Standards-based 802.3ad bundle to a pair of Cisco ASR 9000 routers that act as one device, enabling rapid restoration and supporting L2VPN, L3VPN, residential backhaul, mobile aggregation, and provider edge services. |
