Specifications

OA&M- Ethernet OA&M (EOAM) IEEE 802.3ah: Physical-link OA&M for monitoring link health and assisting in fault isolation; works with IEEE 802.1ag for fast link-failure detection and signaling. - EOAM IEEE 802.1ag: Ethernet Connectivity Fault Management (E-CFM) protocols and procedures to discover and verify paths through 802.1 bridges and LANs. - EOAM ITU Y.1731: Fault Management (FM) and Performance Monitoring (PM) to verify Ethernet networks and measure delay, latency, and loss for SLA support. - Ethernet LMI (E-LMI): Protocol between CE and PE on the UNI link to notify the CE of connectivity status and configuration of Ethernet services on the port. - MPLS OA&M: Supports LSP ping, LSP traceroute, and VCCV for MPLS OA&M.

Security- Cisco IOS XR Software: Provides ACLs, control-plane protection, routing authentication, AAA and TACACS+, SSH, SNMPv3, and advanced RPL support. - Layer 2 ACLs: Filters packets under an EVC based on MAC addresses. - Layer 3 ACLs: Matches IPv4 packets based on Layer 3 attributes. - Additional security features: 802.1ad L2CP and BPDU filtering; MAC limiting per EFP or bridge domain; unicast, multicast, and broadcast storm-control on any interface or port; 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 on VLAN or pseudowire level, summarizing joins upstream so only watched channels are sent downstream, ideal for broadband video deployments.
MPLS L3VPN- MPLS L3VPN: Scalable IPv4 Layer 3 VPN backbone services for IP VPNs, supporting value-added services such as applications, data hosting, e-commerce, and telephony for business customers. - Carrier supporting carrier (CSC): Allows an MPLS VPN provider to use another backbone while maintaining private address space for customer VPNs, per IETF RFC 4364. - Selective VRF Download: Downloads VRF FIB entries only to line cards with VRF membership to increase chassis FIB scale and avoid unnecessary entries. - 6PE and 6VPE: Introduce IPv6 from the edge over an IPv4/MPLS backbone without IPv6 addressing restrictions, minimizing risk and operational cost.
