The Cisco 10000 Edge Services Router (ESR) is a revolutionary Layer 3 platform that enables Internet service providers (ISPs) and other service providers to provision IP services across thousands of leased-line connections. At last, service providers can provision the services their customers want in a cost effective and reliable platform that will scale to keep up with the tremendous growth in the Internet market. Based on a combination of industry-leading Cisco IOS software and Cisco parallel eXpress forwarding (PXF) architecture, the Cisco 10000 ESR eliminates service compromises. Customers will enjoy consistent, high-performance throughput, even with processor-intensive applications enabled. The Cisco 10000 ESR is a 10-slot platform optimized to meet the leased-line aggregation requirements of ISPs. The Cisco 10000 ESR dedicates two slots for active and redundant processor modules and eight slots for interface modules. Interface modules can be configured in any of the eight available slots. All modules require a single slot and are hot swappable. The Cisco 10000 ESR supports a six-port channelized T3 interface module, a channelized OC-12 module, a Gigabit Ethernet module, and an OC-12 Packet over Synchronous Optical Network (SONET) (PoS) module. The Performance Routing Engine (PRE) is at the heart of the Cisco 10000 ESR`s high performance and throughput. Two PREs can be configured in a single chassis for redundancy. The PRE handles all Layer 2 and Layer 3 packet manipulation and is architected with advanced PXF technology to support high-performance throughput with IP services enabled on every port. The PRE has two PCMCIA slots, 32 MB of Flash memory, and 128 MB packet buffer and supports up to 512 MB of SDRAM for use by Cisco IOS software. The PRE is based on standard Cisco IOS 12.0S system software. The 12.0S release is focused specifically on the requirements of Tier 1 and Tier 2 ISPs and includes a comprehensive set of core IP routing protocols, configuration and administration features, security, and other standard features uniquely targeted to meet the needs of ISPs. Cisco IOS 12.0S features supported include SONET (including automatic protection switching [APS]) physical transport, quality of service (QoS) (weighted random early detection [WRED], weighted fair queuing [WFQ], Committed Access Rate [CAR]), access control lists (ACLs), and Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) traffic engineering. The Cisco 10000 ESR has a unique and highly reliable point-to-point backplane. Each slot is connected directly from the interface module to the PRE via a dedicated, fully redundant 3.2 Gbps backplane link (6.4 Gbps, full duplex). This architecture eliminates the issue of backplane oversubscription and ensures backplane availability by maintaining links to both the active and redundant PREs. High performance IP software services: Cisco 10000 ESR software services are based on industry-leading Cisco IOS 12.0S software Critical software services (such as QoS, access lists, MLPPP, and MPLS) have been performance-optimized for the PXF architecture Leading port density: Flexibility to support thousands of leased lines per seven-foot rack with a combination of T3, NxT1, T1, FT1, and DSO on every port Carrier-class availability: Redundant and hot-swappable components ranging from power supplies and cooling to the sophisticated PRE enable the Cisco 10000ESR to maintain a level of reliability expected and required in the service provider market Central-office packaging: 12 inch deep, 19 inch wide, front-to-back airflow, and NEBS Level 3-compliance demonstrate the Cisco commitment to central-office configuration requirements Configuration for up to six chassis per 30 in. deep, seven-foot rack allows doubling DS3 or DS1 density Cisco 10000 — Edge Services Router
Product Overview
Four critical areas of ISP leased-line aggregation:
— Options for the Cisco 10000
Cisco 10000 ESR software is based on industry-leading Cisco IOS Release 12.0S software. Selected features such as QoS, access lists, and MPLS, have been further performance optimized to ensure the highest possible throughput on every port. Cisco IOS 12.0S features that have been PXF optimized include:
IP forwarding
PPP and Frame Relay termination
MLPPP
QoS features such as WRED and class-based WFQ (CBWFQ)
Access lists
Committed access rate (CAR)
Multicast
MPLS traffic engineering
Understanding that software service requirements will change over time, the Cisco 10000 ESR has been architected to be easily upgraded to support new and enhanced software services as they are developed.
The PRE processing engine utilizes Parallel eXpress Forwarding (PXF) and is based on a pair of advanced PXF Network Processors, each of which contains 16 individual sub-processors. Each of these individual processors is programmable to support high throughput Layer 3 services---yielding an incredible 30x improvement in features and performance compared to traditional designs based on general-purpose microprocessors. And because PXF Network Processors are programmable, the Cisco 10000 ESR is capable of adding new services or enhancing existing services simply and efficiently via a simple software download.
PXF Network Processors not only save time in implementing new software services, but they extend the life of the Cisco 10000 ESR hardware. It will no longer be necessary to swap out hardware just to upgrade an ASIC to support a new software service. This process can now be remotely executed (and very rapidly), saving you valuable time and money.
The Cisco 10000 ESR has the capacity and port density to support even the largest leased-line networks. In a central office or POP configuration, the Cisco 10000 ESR is only 12 inches in depth and 21 and 3/4 inches in height. This enables up to six Cisco 10000 ESR chassis per 30 in. deep, seven-foot rack. As required in most central-office implementations, the Cisco 10000 ESR supports front-to-back airflow and redundant AC or DC power and is NEBS Level 3-compliant.
The Cisco 10000 ESR has very aggressive DS1 and DS3 aggregation scaling targets and an advanced architecture to support these targets. The Cisco 10000 ESR is architected to support thousands of T1 connections. Using the Channelized DS3 card, each chassis can support over 1000 T1 connections and more than 6000 in a seven-foot rack. The Channelized OC-12 card allows configurations up to 20001 T1 connections per chassis and 12,0001 in a seven-foot rack. Future enhancements will exploit the ESR architecture and offer even higher density and throughput.
For maximum flexibility, the Cisco 10000 ESR will support up to 432 channelized T3 or full channel T3 connections per seven-foot rack. The Cisco 10000 ESR`s port density provides service providers with the flexibility to build out their central office and POPs using existing space making these resources more profitable.
Uptime and availability are always important, but this requirement takes on added importance for the high density Cisco 10000 ESR. The Cisco 10000 ESR was designed to meet and exceed the most stringent ISP requirements for product availability and reliability. Cisco 10000 ESR high-availability features include:
Hot swappable interface and processor cards
Redundant cooling
Redundant power (AC or DC)
Redundant routing engines
Individual backplane link for every slot (interface and processor)
Redundant connections from each interface slot to both primary and secondary processor modules
Automatic protection switching (APS) between redundant PoS line cards
Advanced route processor redundancy (RPR) for automatic failover between PRE processor modules
The Cisco IOS RPR feature is particularly important for the Cisco 10000 ESR. It enables the chassis to be configured for redundant operation with two PREs. In a redundant configuration, if the primary PRE fails, the secondary PRE will automatically take over chassis operation.
With the introduction of the Cisco 10000 ESR, Cisco has enabled ISPs to deploy more affordable IP services for leased-line customers, which are also more profitable to service providers. The Cisco 10000 ESR provides performance-optimized support for critical software features customers require, such as QoS, CAR, ACLs, and MPLS, while also supporting an architecture that encourages the provisioning of new services in the future.
