The Cisco ASR 9000 Route Switch Processor 440 (A9K-RSP440-TR) is an essential component of the Cisco ASR 9000 Series, designed to provide highly efficient control and system management within a network. This control processor serves as the brains of the router, handling both forwarding and route processing. It plays a pivotal role in managing route networking protocols and control-plane traffic for the ASR 9000 platform.
The A9K-RSP440-TR is built for the most demanding environments, incorporating quad-core processors that deliver fast and reliable performance. Additionally, this processor includes non-stop forwarding (NSF) and in-service software upgrade (ISSU) capabilities, ensuring minimal disruption to network services during upgrades or hardware failures. Furthermore, its use of fabric-based multicast replication significantly enhances network efficiency, allowing the processor to handle multicast traffic more effectively.
The A9K-RSP440-TR also boasts high availability through hardware and software redundancy. Its redundant system processor provides a backup in case of failure to maintain network stability and operation without interruption. This RSP comes with built-in features like modular system design, which allows easy field replacement and scalability without affecting the router's function, making it a solid choice for evolving network demands.
The processor supports multiple advanced features and protocols essential to modern enterprise and service provider networks. Its MPLS (Multiprotocol Label Switching) support ensures efficient traffic routing, while its IPv4 and IPv6 capabilities provide compatibility with both current and future networking standards. The A9K-RSP440-TR enhances operational flexibility, making it an excellent choice for data centres or large-scale networks requiring consistent performance and minimal downtime.
