Feature Description

Programmability

Preprogram Backup LSPs Using Service Layer API

Introduced in this release on: NCS 5500 fixed port routers; NCS 5500 modular routers (NCS 5500 line cards).

The controller now quickly responds to a primary Label Switched Path (LSP) failure, ensuring minimal traffic disruption and efficient rerouting. This quick switching is possible because the controller can now use the Service Layer API to preprogram the backup LSP in the hardware.

Upon detecting a failure, the controller switches the primary LSP to backup in a down state and promotes the backup LSP to primary using the provided API parameters.

Routing

Multi-area Loopback Interface for OSPF

Introduced in this release on: NCS 5500 fixed port routers; NCS 5500 modular routers (NCS 5500 line cards; NCS 5700 line cards [Mode: Compatibility; Native]).

You can save IP addresses and resources, prevent the use of multiple node SIDs for labels associated with loopback interfaces, and save time configuring multiple loopback interfaces for an Area Border Router (ABR) in a network. These improvements are possible as you can now configure a single loopback interface for multiple areas. With this feature, an ABR can use a single loopback interface for all areas it connects to, eliminating the need for separate loopback interfaces for each area.

Previously, each loopback interface was linked to only one area.

The feature introduces these changes:

CLI:

The multi-area-interface command is extended to support loopback interfaces.

Protect IS-IS Processes in OOR Conditions

Introduced in this release on: NCS 5500 fixed port routers; NCS 5500 modular routers (NCS 5500 line cards; NCS 5700 line cards [Mode: Compatibility; Native])

This feature enables prompt alerts for out-of-resource (OOR) conditions in IS-IS processes that could otherwise cause network instability and disruption due to memory leaks and excessive link-state packets (LSPs). Additionally, you can disable the overload bit status flag in the router's LSP to prevent setting the overload-bit. We recommend consulting with Cisco for optimal results before making this change.

Previously, during OOR conditions, IS-IS processes restarted themselves, but the OOR conditions could persist.

This ability to protect IS-IS processes in OOR conditions is enabled by default and you can't disable it.

SR ECMP-FEC Optimization for IPv6 Prefixes

Introduced in this release on: NCS 5500 fixed port routers; NCS 5500 modular routers (NCS 5500 line cards).

You can now minimize ECMP-FEC resource consumption and duplication of resources during underlay programming for an SR-MPLS network for IPv6 prefixes. The feature supports sharing the same ECMP-FEC, regular FEC, and Egress Encapsulation DB (EEDB) entries for all paths with the same outgoing MPLS label among IPv6 prefixes. This improvement is now possible by using the hw-module fib mpls label lsr-optimized command.

In earlier releases, ECMP-FEC optimization for IPv4 prefixes was available.

SRv6 Traffic Class DSCP Marking Enhancement for QoS

Introduced in this release on: NCS 5500 fixed port routers; NCS 5500 modular routers

This feature allows you to set the traffic class values to use the full range of DSCP (6 bits) for SRv6 packets that are encapsulated.

The feature extends the existing policy-map setting of 3-bit traffic class DSCP marking to 6 bits using the new policy-map-extend option in the configuration for L2 and L3 traffic for SRv6.

This is a mutually inclusive feature for L2 and L3 traffic. Therefore, this feature cannot be used in the individual configuration for L2 and L3 traffic.

This feature introduces this change:

CLI: The policy-map-extend keyword is introduced in the hw-module profile segment-routing srv6 mode microsegment f3216 encapsulation traffic-class command.

Carrier Delay on Physical Interfaces

Introduced in this release on: NCS 5500 fixed port routers; NCS 5500 modular routers (NCS 5500 line cards; NCS 5700 line cards [Mode: Compatibility; Native])

With the carrier-delay timer functionality, the Ethernet interface state remains stable for the configured delay duration, even if the hardware link state fluctuates. This prevents interface flapping and improves network reliability.

If you haven't configured the timer, the default carrier delay automatically delays the hardware link-up notifications by 200 ms. This time delay ensures that a stable hardware link state is established.

If you want to change the delay of the interface state change notification, you can use the carrier-delay command to set a different value.

The feature introduces these changes:

NCS 5500 fixed port routers; NCS 5700 fixed port routers; NCS 5500 modular routers (NCS 5500 line cards; NCS 5700 line cards [Mode: Compatibility; Native])

You now get a comprehensive view of your 5G network's performance and gain detailed insights into slice utilization, deployed QoS policies, and their impact on traffic. This includes verifying deployed QoS policies, assessing 5G slice mechanisms, and tracking GTP-U endpoints for specific applications. This feature specifically applies to 5G network slicing when the GTP User Plane carries data within the core network and to the radio access network. This is achieved by exporting GTP-U related Information Elements using Netflow and IPFIX records to collectors for analysis.

This feature introduces these changes:

CLI:

System Management

Increasing Commit Limit

Introduced in this release on: NCS 5500 fixed port routers; NCS 5500 modular routers (NCS 5500 line cards).

The maximum number of commits is increased in the router that allows you to configure complex topology changes without interruptions caused by the default blocking of commit changes during rebase or ASCII backup operations. You can prevent the commit operation from getting blocked by using the cfs check command, which increases the commit (pacount) count from 20 to 40, and the commit file diff size (configuration data) from 2 MB to 4 MB, and by using the clear configuration ascii inconsistency command, which performs an ASCII backup after 55 minutes.

The feature modifies the following commands:

  • cfs check

  • clear configuration ascii inconsistency

Isolate Foreign Masters Causing Packet Timing Signal Fail

Introduced in this release on:NCS 5500 fixed port routers, NCS 5500 modular routers, NCS 5500 line cards, and NCS 5700 line cards [Mode: Compatibility; Native]

This feature permits the flexible selection of timing sources by filtering out Foreign Master (FM) clocks that exhibit unstable timing. This filtering causes the secondary clocks to produce a signal deemed Packet Timing Signal Fail (PTSF)-unusable, from consideration within the Best Master Clock Algorithm (BMCA). The system continuously monitors these clocks for timing stabilization, and upon detecting enhanced stability, it may reevaluate and possibly reintegrate them as suitable time sources.

This feature introduces these changes:

CLI:

  • detect-ptsf-unusable

  • The show ptp foreign-masters command output is enhanced to include phase difference values and servo status.

YANG Data Models:

The following data models are enhanced:

  • Cisco-IOS-XR-ptp-cfg.yang

Introduced in this release on:NCS 5500 fixed port routersNCS 5500 modular routersNCS 5500 line cardsNCS 5700 line cards [Mode: Compatibility; Native]

Passive ports can now be included in the Delay Request-Response Mechanism (DRRM), which allows for the monitoring of PTP phase differences between a passive port and a secondary port. If these PTP phase differences surpass a predefined limit, system logs are triggered. This feature enables you to detect potential errors such as fiber asymmetry or a clock failure in the PTP network.

This feature introduces these changes:

CLI:

  • phase-difference-threshold-breach

  • The show ptp foreign-masters command output is enhanced to include phase difference values and servo status.

YANG Data Models:

The following data models are enhanced:

  • Cisco-IOS-XR-ptp-cfg.yang

  • Cisco-IOS-XR-um-ptp-cfg.yang

PTP and SyncE on NC-57-48Q2D-S and NC-57-48Q2D-SE-S

Introduced in this release on: NCS 5500 modular routers (NCS 5500 line cards [Mode: Native])

Based on the IEEE 1588-2008 standard, Precision Time Protocol (PTP) is a protocol that defines a method to synchronize clocks in a network for networked measurement and control systems. And, SyncE provides synchronization signals transmitted over the Ethernet physical layer to downstream devices, while the Synchronization Status Message (SSM) indicates the quality level of the transmitting clock to the neighboring nodes, informing the nodes about the level of the network's reliability. Ethernet Synchronization Message Channel (ESMC) is the logical channel that uses an Ethernet PDU (protocol data unit) to exchange SSM information over the SyncE link.

Support for PTP and SyncE profiles G.8262, G.8262.1, G.8265.1, G.8275.1, G.8275.2, G8273.2 are extended to the following line cards:

Introduced in this release on: NCS 5500 fixed port routers; NCS 5700 fixed port routers; NCS 5500 modular routers (NCS 5500 line cards; NCS 5700 line cards [Mode: Compatibility; Native])

This feature enhances network security by extending the 802.1X port-based authentication to Layer 2 untagged sub-interfaces. It ensures that data transmission is only possible from authenticated devices, including those on interfaces without VLAN tags. Consequently, this reinforces access control policies across all devices attempting to connect to the network.

System Monitoring

Improved Packet Loss Detection and Monitoring

Introduced in this release on: NCS 5500 fixed port routers; NCS 5500 modular routers (NCS 5500 line cards).

You can now set the tolerance to monitor packet drops in the Network Processing Unit (NPU) for three different NPU trap categories at a configurable cadence of your choice. When a NPU trap breaks the configured packet-drop tolerance for that trap category, the router alerts you with a system log message and you can monitor the trend using healthcheck show commands.

This enables you to prioritize taking action depending on the trap category for which the router logs the message.

In earlier releases, you could only monitor packet-drops globally for all NPU trap cateogories at a fixed cadence.

This feature introduces these changes:

CLI:

The tolerance and window-size keywords are introduced in the use-case command.

YANG Data Model:

New xpaths for Cisco-IOS-XR-healthcheck-cfg.yang data model.

Introduced in this release on: NCS 5500 fixed port routers; NCS 5500 modular routers (NCS 5500 line cards; NCS 5700 line cards [Mode: Compatibility; Native])

We help you save debugging time to locate packet drops by automatically detecting nonzero traffic drops from the commands running in the background and giving you the exact location of the packet drop.

In earlier releases, you used multiple show commands with their respective locations to detect packet drops.

This feature introduces the show drops all command.

Feature Description

Application Hosting

CPU-Based Packet Generator

Introduced in this release on: NCS 5500 fixed port routers; NCS 5500 modular routers(NCS 5500 line cards; NCS 5700 line cards [Mode: Compatibility; Native])

You can now use a CPU-based packet generator for IOS-XR routers to simplify the diagnostic process for routers experiencing problems. This tool allows you to generate a wide range of traffic streams directly within the production environment without physically isolating the routers and moving them to a lab setup. This tool is beneficial in environments that use routers from different vendors or different models from the same vendor.

The feature introduces the packetgen command with different options to generate different types of packets.

Programmability

Preprogram Backup LSPs Using Service Layer API

Introduced in this release on: NCS 5500 fixed port routers; NCS 5500 modular routers (NCS 5500 line cards).

SR ECMP-FEC Optimization for IPv6 Prefixes

Introduced in this release on: NCS 5500 fixed port routers; NCS 5500 modular routers (NCS 5500 line cards).

You can now minimize ECMP-FEC resource consumption and duplication of resources during underlay programming for an SR-MPLS network for IPv6 prefixes. The feature supports sharing the same ECMP-FEC, regular FEC, and Egress Encapsulation DB (EEDB) entries for all paths with the same outgoing MPLS label among IPv6 prefixes. This improvement is now possible by using the hw-module fib mpls label lsr-optimized command.

In earlier releases, ECMP-FEC optimization for IPv4 prefixes was available.

Carrier Delay on Physical Interfaces

Introduced in this release on: NCS 5500 fixed port routers; NCS 5500 modular routers (NCS 5500 line cards; NCS 5700 line cards [Mode: Compatibility; Native])

With the carrier-delay timer functionality, the Ethernet interface state remains stable for the configured delay duration, even if the hardware link state fluctuates. This prevents interface flapping and improves network reliability.

If you haven't configured the timer, the default carrier delay automatically delays the hardware link-up notifications by 200 ms. This time delay ensures that a stable hardware link state is established.

If you want to change the delay of the interface state change notification, you can use the carrier-delay command to set a different value.

The feature introduces these changes:

This feature saves time and effort by preventing the need to examine each packet for failure.

This feature introduces the tcp dump-file convert command.

L2VPN and Ethernet Services

Default Encapsulation Mode of ITU-T Y.1564

Introduced in this release on:NCS 5500 fixed port routers

The default encapsulation mode helps to set a baseline to know how the Ethernet service behaves for default operations in Service Activation Test.

Frame Delay Range for ITU-T Y.1564 Test

Introduced in this release on:NCS 5500 fixed port routers

You now have the ability to conduct a finer analysis of frame delay by measuring the Frame Delay Range (FDR) within a designated percentile. This metric captures the variation between the minimum frame delay observed and the delay at your chosen percentile. Also, delay times are organized into bins, which you can configure in terms of width and count to suit your analysis needs. By customizing these parameters, you can obtain an in-depth look at the distribution of observed delays, providing a nuanced understanding of network performance.

This feature introduces these changes:

CLI:

The following keywords are added to the frame delay command:

  • bins

  • width

  • frame- delay-range percentile

NCS 5500 fixed port routers; NCS 5700 fixed port routers; NCS 5500 modular routers (NCS 5500 line cards; NCS 5700 line cards [Mode: Compatibility; Native])

You now get a comprehensive view of your 5G network's performance and gain detailed insights into slice utilization, deployed QoS policies, and their impact on traffic. This includes verifying deployed QoS policies, assessing 5G slice mechanisms, and tracking GTP-U endpoints for specific applications. This feature specifically applies to 5G network slicing when the GTP User Plane carries data within the core network and to the radio access network. This is achieved by exporting GTP-U related Information Elements using Netflow and IPFIX records to collectors for analysis.

This feature introduces these changes:

CLI:

System Management

Increasing Commit Limit

Introduced in this release on: NCS 5500 fixed port routers; NCS 5500 modular routers (NCS 5500 line cards).

The maximum number of commits is increased in the router that allows you to configure complex topology changes without interruptions caused by the default blocking of commit changes during rebase or ASCII backup operations. You can prevent the commit operation from getting blocked by using the cfs check command, which increases the commit (pacount) count from 20 to 40, and the commit file diff size (configuration data) from 2 MB to 4 MB, and by using the clear configuration ascii inconsistency command, which performs an ASCII backup after 55 minutes.

The feature modifies the following commands:

  • cfs check

  • clear configuration ascii inconsistency

Isolate Foreign Masters Causing Packet Timing Signal Fail

Introduced in this release on:NCS 5500 fixed port routers, NCS 5500 modular routers, NCS 5500 line cards, and NCS 5700 line cards [Mode: Compatibility; Native]

This feature permits the flexible selection of timing sources by filtering out Foreign Master (FM) clocks that exhibit unstable timing. This filtering causes the secondary clocks to produce a signal deemed Packet Timing Signal Fail (PTSF)-unusable, from consideration within the Best Master Clock Algorithm (BMCA). The system continuously monitors these clocks for timing stabilization, and upon detecting enhanced stability, it may reevaluate and possibly reintegrate them as suitable time sources.

This feature introduces these changes:

CLI:

  • detect-ptsf-unusable

  • The show ptp foreign-masters command output is enhanced to include phase difference values and servo status.

YANG Data Models:

The following data models are enhanced:

  • Cisco-IOS-XR-ptp-cfg.yang

  • Cisco-IOS-XR-um-ptp-cfg.yang

PTP Phase Difference Threshold Between Passive and Secondary Ports

Introduced in this release on:NCS 5500 fixed port routersNCS 5500 modular routersNCS 5500 line cardsNCS 5700 line cards [Mode: Compatibility; Native]

Passive ports can now be included in the Delay Request-Response Mechanism (DRRM), which allows for the monitoring of PTP phase differences between a passive port and a secondary port. If these PTP phase differences surpass a predefined limit, system logs are triggered. This feature enables you to detect potential errors such as fiber asymmetry or a clock failure in the PTP network.

This feature introduces these changes:

CLI:

  • phase-difference-threshold-breach

  • The show ptp foreign-masters command output is enhanced to include phase difference values and servo status.

YANG Data Models:

The following data models are enhanced:

  • Cisco-IOS-XR-ptp-cfg.yang

  • Cisco-IOS-XR-um-ptp-cfg.yang

System Security

Layer 2 Untagged Sub-interface configuration in IEEE 802.1X Port-based Authentication

Introduced in this release on: NCS 5500 fixed port routers; NCS 5500 modular routers (NCS 5500 line cards; NCS 5700 line cards [Mode: Compatibility; Native])

This feature enhances network security by extending the 802.1X port-based authentication to Layer 2 untagged sub-interfaces. It ensures that data transmission is only possible from authenticated devices, including those on interfaces without VLAN tags. Consequently, this reinforces access control policies across all devices attempting to connect to the network.

System Monitoring

Improved Packet Loss Detection and Monitoring

Introduced in this release on: NCS 5500 fixed port routers; NCS 5500 modular routers (NCS 5500 line cards).

You can now set the tolerance to monitor packet drops in the Network Processing Unit (NPU) for three different NPU trap categories at a configurable cadence of your choice. When a NPU trap breaks the configured packet-drop tolerance for that trap category, the router alerts you with a system log message and you can monitor the trend using healthcheck show commands.

This enables you to prioritize taking action depending on the trap category for which the router logs the message.

In earlier releases, you could only monitor packet-drops globally for all NPU trap cateogories at a fixed cadence.

This feature introduces these changes:

CLI:

The tolerance and window-size keywords are introduced in the use-case command.

YANG Data Model:

New xpaths for Cisco-IOS-XR-healthcheck-cfg.yang data model.

Caveats

There are no caveats in this release.

Behavior Changes

  • From this release, the set qos-group action can be used with the new parameter policy-map-extend in the hw-module profile segment-routing srv6 mode encapsulation traffic class command. Prior to this release, the set qos-group action cannot be used in conjunction with the parameter policy-map-extend in the hw-module profile segment-routing srv6 mode encapsulation traffic class command.

  • From this release, for the tx-interval value in performance-measurement liveness-profile , the allowed range for CPU sessions is from 15000 to 15000000 micro seconds. The modified range applies to both the liveness-profile sr-policy default and liveness-profile name commands. Prior to this release, the allowed range for CPU sessions was from 30000 to 15000000 micro seconds

  • Cisco IOS XR enforces the existence of the leaves referenced by OpenConfig list key leafrefs. If the referenced leaves do not exist in the OpenConfig datastore, the following error is returned:

    Leaf name inside the config container must also be set to value default to satisfy the leafref constraint on the list key.

  • To configure load-balancing parameters, use the cef load-balancing command in Global configuration mode.

  • When multiple IS-IS instances are configured on a router, by default, show isis commands display information from all IS-IS instances. To display information from only one specific IS-IS instance, use the set default-isis-instance command in the EXEC mode.

Important Notes

  • The total number of bridge-domains (2*BDs) and GRE tunnels put together should not exceed 1518. Here the number 1518 represents the multi-dimensional scale value.

  • The offline diagnostics functionality is not supported in NCS 5500 platform. Therefore, the hw-module service offline location command will not work. However, you can use the (sysadmin)# hw-module shutdown location command to bring down the LC.

  • The statistics collection may time out due to CPU overload during route churn. In such scenarios, statistics collection will resume when the CPU becomes available after the route churn is complete.

Licensing

Starting with Cisco IOS XR Release 24.1.1, Smart Licensing Using Policy (SLP) is the default Licensing model. When you upgrade to the Cisco IOS XR Release 24.1.1 release or later, the Smart Licensing Using Policy is enabled by default.

You can migrate your devices to Smart Licensing with Policy model, see Migrating from Smart Licensing to Smart Licensing Using Policy, Smart Licensing Using Policy on Cisco IOS XR Routers.

We recommend that you update to the latest version of SSM On-Prem or Cisco Smart Licensing Utility.


Note


SSM On-Prem and CSSM both support SLP devices and SL devices. SLP devices and SL devices can coexist in a network. The Smart Licensing (SL) model is available in releases Cisco IOS XR Release 7.11.1 and earlier.


Upgrading Cisco IOS XR Software

Cisco IOS XR Software is installed and activated from modular packages, allowing specific features or software patches to be installed, upgraded, or downgraded without affecting unrelated processes. Software packages can be upgraded or downgraded on all supported card types, or on a single card (node).

Before starting the software upgrade, use the show install health command in the admin mode. This command validates if the statuses of all relevant parameters of the system are ready for the software upgrade without interrupting the system.


Note


  • If you use a TAR package to upgrade from a Cisco IOS XR release prior to 7.x, the output of the show install health command in admin mode displays the following error messages:

sysadmin-vm:0_RSP0# show install health
. . .
ERROR /install_repo/gl/xr -rw-r--r--. 1 8413 floppy 3230320 Mar 14 05:45 <platform>-isis-2.2.0.0-r702.x86_64
ERROR /install_repo/gl/xr -rwxr-x---. 1 8413 165 1485781 Mar 14 06:02 <platform>-k9sec-3.1.0.0-r702.x86_64

You can ignore these messages and proceed with the installation operation.

  • Quad configurations will be lost when you perform a software downgrade on a NCS-55A1-48Q6H device from IOS XR Release 7.5.1 onwards to a release prior to IOS XR Release 7.5.1 due to non-backward compatibility change. The lost configuration can be applied manually after the downgrade.


    Note


    A quad is a group of four ports with common speeds, 1G/10G or 25G. You can configure the ports speed for a quad by using the hw-module quad command.



Production Software Maintenance Updates (SMUs)

A production SMU is a SMU that is formally requested, developed, tested, and released. Production SMUs are intended for use in a live network environment and are formally supported by the Cisco TAC and the relevant development teams. Software bugs identified through software recommendations or Bug Search Tools are not a basis for production SMU requests.

For information on production SMU types, refer the Production SMU Types section of the IOS XR Software Maintenance Updates (SMUs) guide.
