Cisco IOS XR Setup and Upgrade |
|
|
Install Owner and Partner RPMs Using IOS XR Install Infrastructure |
You can now use the existing IOS XR install infrastructure to install your proprietary Owner and Partner RPMs. This enhancement streamlines the process of integrating third-party software seamlessly into the IOS XR environment, including bundling the owner and partner RPMs into a GISO. In previous releases, you could only install Owner and Partner applications using the Application Manager interface. This feature introduces the keyword skip-implicit-owner-packages-checks in the following install commands:
|
|
Application Hosting |
|
|
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. |
|
|
Telemetry |
|
|
You can now stream and monitor the telemetry data remotely on a gNMI interface, after subscribing to a sensor path. This data is gathered directly from the Network Processor Unit (NPU) driver at regular, predefined intervals for each block. This streaming enables real-time monitoring and analysis of router health and network performance, including error reporting and key metrics, allowing for rapid response to dynamic network conditions. Previously, you needed to log into the router to check the ASIC statistics. |
|
|
You can now oversee and diagnose your network infrastructure in real time by periodically streaming the Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) information of a router through a gRPC Network Management Interface (gNMI) client. By continuously monitoring LLDP data from a switch or router, you gain immediate insights into network topology and the attributes of devices on the network, facilitating proactive management and troubleshooting. |
|
|
Programmability |
|
|
You can now monitor and manage a larger number of network devices, ensuring comprehensive oversight and control over your network infrastructure with NETCONF-YANG version 1.0. This enhancement is possible because our system has increased the support for NETCONF YANG sessions from 50 to 128. |
|
|
SPIFFE ID-Based Authentication and Authorization Services for gRPC Services |
You can now securely manage service identities for workloads that communicate over gRPC. This capability is critical for environments such as distributed systems, where workloads move across different platforms. This security measure is feasible because workloads can use the Secure Production Identity Framework for Everyone (SPIFFE) ID and SPIFFE Verifiable Identity Document (SVID) to encrypt and authenticate gRPC traffic. This feature introduces the following changes: CLI: Yang Data Models:
(see GitHub, YANG Data Models Navigator) |
|
You can now update your router's entire configuration in one go to ensure that the actual settings of your network operating
system align with the intended setup. The update includes OpenConfig (OC), Native YANG (NY), and CLI configurations and is
done using the gRPC Network Management Interface (gNMI). The update is possible with the gNMI union-replace operation in a
To view the specification of gNMI union-replace, see the Github repository. |
|
|
We’ve introduced gNMI authorization through the gNSI pathz policy which is adding authorization of a user or a group to access
a specified YANG XPath through gNMI. The policy configurations can be done on the router either when the router boots up or
dynamically when the router is up and running. When a user or a group sends a To view the specification of gNSI for the OpenConfig XPath-based Authorization, see the Github repository. The feature introduces these changes: CLI: |
|
|
You can now check and assess the reliability of the link speed and packet drops between the two network devices (generator and the reflector) by performing the gNOI packet-based link qualification service. This can be achieved by sending the packets from the generator to the reflector, and receiving the looped back packets from the reflector within a certain tolerance limit. The link transimmision rate and the link's capacity range for that interface can be obtained from the following gNSI Packet Link Qualification RPC messages:
|
|
|
To improve communication confidentiality and security, you can now update or rotate account-specific and host-specific SSH credentials on a router. You can access the latest SSH credentials through the gNMI credentialz RPC. The updated SSH credentials encompass passwords, host keys, and certificates. To view the specification of gNSI credentialz RPCs and messages, see the Github repository. |
|
|
This feature extends the Service Layer API, allowing the controller to preprogram backup Label Switched Paths (LSPs) in the hardware. When the Path Priority flag indicates a transition from the backup LSP to the primary LSP, the controller switches the traffic to the backup LSP. |
|
|
Routing |
|
|
You can now monitor the health of VXLAN tunnel and detect failures in the tunnel rapidly which ensures faster rerouting of traffic, resulting in high availability of networks. |
|
|
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. |
|
|
You can now create customised routing policies based on different parameters such as IP address, port numbers, or protocols. With Policy-Based Routing (PBR), you can enhance your network security by steering sensitive data away from potentially vulnerable network segments. Also, by allowing you to distribute traffic across multiple paths, PBR can help prevent traffic congestion in your network. This feature is supported only on routers with 88-LC1-36EH line cards. |
|
|
This feature enables prompt alerts for out-of-resource 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. The feature introduces these changes: CLI:

|
Data Plane Validation for SR-MPLS IPv6-based Controller Instantiated LSPs |
You can now verify the network configuration and paths and policies set up, without interrupting or potentially disrupting live network traffic, for SR-MPLS (Segment Routing over Multiprotocol Label Switching) IPv6-based Label Switched Paths (LSPs). With this feature, you can validate controller instantiated LSPs programmed directly into the forwarding hardware. Previously, SR data plane validation was possible over IPv4-based LSPs. The feature introduces these changes: CLI:
YANG Data Models:
See (GitHub, Yang Data Models Navigator) |
|
In Segment Routing over an IPv6 network (SRv6), you can measure packet delay from the source to a specific IP endpoint. You can use this information for troubleshooting, network maintenance, and optimizing network performance. Additionally, you can use flow labels to verify the delay of each subsequent hop path towards the IP endpoint of that path. So that, when network traffic is distributed across multiple available paths towards an IP endpoint, delay measurement tracks the delay of each of these paths towards the IP endpoint. The feature introduces these changes: CLI:
YANG Data Model:

|
|
In Segment Routing over an IPv6 network (SRv6), you can keep track of the operational status of both the forward and reverse paths of a particular node or IP endpoint. You can use this information for troubleshooting, network maintenance, and optimizing network performance. Additionally, you can use flow labels to verify the liveness of each subsequent hop path toward the IP endpoint of that path. So that, when network traffic is distributed across multiple available paths towards an IP endpoint, liveness detection tracks the operational status of each of these paths towards the IP endpoint. The feature introduces these changes: CLI:
YANG Data Model:
(see GitHub, YANG Data Models Navigator) |
|
|
MPLS OAM support for SR-TE Policies using MPLS IPv6-based LSPs |
You can now verify the network configuration and paths and SR-TE policies set up, without interrupting or potentially disrupting live network traffic, for SR-MPLS (Segment Routing over Multiprotocol Label Switching) IPv6-based Label Switched Paths (LSPs). Previously, MPLS OAM support was only for IPv4-based LSPs. The feature introduces these changes: CLI: The traceroute sr-mpls and ping sr-mpls commands are extended to support IPv6 nexthop addresses. YANG Data Models:
See (GitHub, Yang Data Models Navigator) |
|
Overriding MPLS Imposition (IP-to-MPLS) via Service Layer API (SL-API) |
In scenarios where SR-prefer is enabled, this feature allows you to specify SR prefixes through an Access Control List where their imposition forwarding entry (IP-to-MPLS) gives preference to SL-API, instead of the SR native LSP. The labeled forwarding entries (MPLS-to-MPLS or MPLS-to-IP) continue to follow the SR native LSP. This feature introduces the following command under Router RIB AF configuration mode: segment-routing mpls preserve-label-forwarding access-listacl_name [apply-inverse] |
|
This feature adds support for user-defined generic metric as a metric type for IS-IS Flexible Algorithm. You can now have more control over traffic flows using user-defined generic metrics. You can define a family of user-defined generic metrics that can advertise different types of administrative metrics such as jitter, reliability, and fiscal cost depending on the traffic class for Flexible Algorithms. You can selectively define and assign semantics of these metrics as per the network requirement. The feature introduces the following changes: CLI:

BGP |
|
|
Advertising IPv4 NLRI with IPv6 Next Hops in the non-default VRF |
This feature enhances network efficiency and security by allowing you to create default and non-default virtual routing tables. These tables isolate traffic through customized routing policies, allowing for the communication of IPv4 address family over IPv6 next hops specifically within non-default VRFs. |
|
You can now terminate the external BGP sessions to an adjacent peer when the link to that peer goes down, without waiting for the hold timer to expire. With this feature you can enable fast fallover mechanism on a specific BGP neighbor even if bgp fast-external-fallover disable command is globally configured. This feature enables quicker failure detection, and allows other recovery mechanisms to reroute the traffic quickly, thus resulting in faster convergence. The feature introduces these changes: CLI: YANG Data Model:
|
|
|
You can now steer the BGP control-plane traffic through an IP-only transport path even when MPLS Link State Packets (LSPs) are configured for BGP neighbor reachability. This feature allows you to keep the BGP control-plane traffic independent of the data plane traffic, enabling you to have more granular control over your network traffic. The feature introduces these changes: CLI: New Commands: Modified Commands:

|
| You can now enhance network routing efficiency by integrating BGP Flowspec rules into Layer 3 VPNs and SR-Policies. This integration enables dynamic VRF determination, surpassing static or ODN-derived methods. With BGP Flowspec, define traffic criteria for precise VRF control in L3VPN or SR-Policy environments. This improvement boosts routing adaptability and service continuity. Additionally, the protocol extension equips you to execute precise traffic actions, optimizing network performance and security. | |
| You can now achieve enhanced stability and fairness in your network's traffic processing by utilizing Enhanced Monitoring
of BGP Keepalive Messages feature. This functionality enables you to efficiently manage the influx of messages from multiple
neighbors by meticulously monitoring and adjusting the rate of message processing through throttling. Take advantage of a
comprehensive log detailing each neighbor's throttling incidents, empowering network administrators with critical data to
refine and optimize overall network performance.
CLI: The feature modifies the output of the show command given below: YANG Data Model:
|
|
|
You can now enhance your network's reliability and efficiency with the Enhanced Monitoring of BGP Memory Utilization feature, allowing administrators to proactively oversee BGP's memory footprint—essential for routing within sophisticated networks. This feature acts as a vigilant alert system, offering regular assessments, documenting memory usage, and providing timely notifications as you approach critical memory thresholds, all to ensure optimal BGP memory management for uninterrupted network functionality. CLI: The feature modifies the output of the show command given below: YANG Data Model:
|
|
|
You can maintain uninterrupted network functionality during upgrades or failovers with Non-Stop Routing (NSR), ensuring consistent data across primary and standby engines. The Enhanced Monitoring of NSR Statistics feature offers metrics on NSR packet handling, providing processing times, counts, and sequence numbers in real-time. If no new packets are received, the last known statistics persist, keeping the displayed data current. CLI: The feature modifies the output of the show command given below: YANG Data Model:
|
|
|
You can now effectively pinpoint the sources of BGP churn with the enhanced feature that monitors and sorts version bumps. This functionality empowers you to calculate version rates within defined intervals and organize them by their origin—whether reachable, unreachable, import, redistribution, or label-related—while maintaining a cumulative count of churn. The feature generates comprehensive reports on version bumps for both AFI and neighbor AFI levels, providing totals for each interval, bucketized categorization, and additional sources based on the main table's version number. CLI: The feature modifies the output of the show command given below: YANG Data Model:
|
|
|
You can now optimize routing decisions with the BGP Nexthop Event Tracking feature. This feature strengthens BGP's integration with the RIB by actively monitoring critical nexthop events. It enables you to swiftly pinpoint the root causes of network fluctuations, especially in large-scale deployments, by providing comprehensive event data. CLI: The feature modifies the output of the show command given below: YANG Data Model:
|
|
|
You can now gracefully handle transient out-of-resource (OOR) conditions, and prevent traffic loss during periods of intense BGP route updates, by utilizing the Make-Before-Break (MBB), and Destination-based Load Balancing (DLB) approaches. This feature introduces these changes: CLI:
|
|
|
Store and analyze changes in the prefixes received from BGP peer |
You can now actively monitor changes, acceptances, and rejections of received prefixes by providing insightful statistics using this feature. It enables storing all original copies of routes received from peers, even those not chosen as the best path. Use the command to accomplish this, while the inbound RPL concurrently modifies received prefixes. The feature introduces these changes: CLI:

|
Interface and Hardware Component |
|
|
We have introduced the carrier-delay up default value to ensure enough time to establish a stable hardware link state. If you haven’t configured the timer, the default carrier delay automatically delays the hardware link-up notifications by 200 ms. Previously, we recommended that you set the carrier delay-up timer to 10 ms. 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 SPAN to File and ERSPAN mirroring capability is enhanced to mirror dropped packets by the Traffic Management (TM) buffer when it's full and starts dropping incoming packets. This capability allows you to retain and store a mirrored copy of the dropped packets, and work effectively even during process restarts or network failovers, providing a dependable solution for traffic monitoring. This feature is supported only on Cisco Silicon One 88-LC1-36EH line cards and Q200 based routers. This feature introduces the following changes:
|
|
|
Monitoring Layer 3 Connectivity Using Down MEP on L3 Interfaces |
This enhancement expands network diagnostics to L3 interfaces at L2 network termination, simplifying the management and maintenance of multilayer networks. Without impacting the underlying L2 infrastructure, this feature uses CFM packets to verify the connection of L3 paths. Previously, CFM Down MEP support was limited to L2 interfaces associated with cross-connect or bundle members. This feature is supported on both physical main and subinterfaces, bundle main and subinterfaces. |
|
You can now use untagged L2 subinterfaces to effectively manage and process traffic from customer edge (CE) devices that do not employ VLAN tagging. This capability allows you to apply services to untagged packets, which would not have been possible if the packets were to be logically received on the main interface. As a result, you can now push a dot1q or other supported Layer 2 encapsulation on the received frame. This feature introduces the encapsulation untagged command. |
|
|
We ensure that in cases where multiple paths are used to carry packets from source to destination, each path is utilized for this purpose and no path is over-utilized or congested. This is made possible because we now provide customized ECMP hashing fields that are used for path computation. Previously, the router relied on fixed packet header fields for hashing, which were not user configurable. With additional user-defined bytes considered for hashing, the granularity at which the traffic can be analyzed for ECMP load balancing increases, resulting in better load balancing and path utilization. The feature introduces these changes: CLI:
YANG:
|
|
|
IP Addresses and Services |
|
|
You can now configure both IPv4 and IPv6 ACLs on Layer 2 interfaces. This functionality is supported on the physical and bundle main layer 2 interfaces, enabling layer 3 ACLs. With this feature, you can implement traffic filtering at layer 2, effectively preventing undesired traffic from progressing deeper into the network, like using an IPV6 ACL as an IPV6 router advertisement (RA) guard. Previously, IPv6 and IPv4 ACLs weren’t supported on Layer 2 interface. |
|
|
We have now enhanced forwarding capabilities in VRFs, allowing internal VRFs (iVRF) to redirect incoming packets to a different destination using GRE tunneling. This functionality can be used to examine packets that do not match the predefined access control entries. Instead of discarding these packets by default, we can use a forwarding match ACE to send them to a VRF that can forward them using GRE tunnels. This allows for a more thorough inspection of these discarded packets, helping to identify any hidden threats or attacks in the contents and improving network security. |
|
|
You can now convert an entire TCP dump of packet traces in binary files into readable formats such as text or cap, which makes it easier to analyze them for troubleshooting using third-party or open-source tools. 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. |
|
|
This feature provides first-hop redundancy and enables failover to a standby interface within a group of physical or bundle interfaces or sub-interfaces in a network in the event of any failure in the active interface or sub-interface in that group. The feature allows you to configure HSRP for IPv4 and IPv6 networks on the physical and bundle interfaces and sub-interfaces. |
|
|
This feature ensures high availability of routing paths by mitigating any failure in the primary interfaces within a group of physical or bundle interfaces or sub-interfaces in a network with a failover to a backup physical or bundle interface. The feature achieves this failover through a backup router in the VRRP router group configured on the physical or bundle interfaces or sub-interfaces. The virtual IP addresses from the failed primary router are handed over to this backup router. |
|
|
L2VPN |
|
|
Ethernet Ring Protection Switching (ERPS) protocol, defined in ITU-T G.8032, provides protection for Ethernet traffic in a ring topology, while ensuring that there are no loops within the ring at the Ethernet layer. The loops are prevented by blocking either a predetermined link or a failed link. This feature introduces the ethernet ring g8032 and ethernet ring g8032 profile commands. |
|
|
We now prevent packet drops between peer routers when the attachment circuit (AC) of a PE router goes down, by withdrawing all dynamic MAC addresses from that PE router. When the AC goes down, the PE routers remove or unlearn the MAC addresses learned from the peer routers, that do not need to be relearned. This enables faster convergence when the AC comes up. |
|
|
EVPN |
|
|
BUM Ingress Replication for EVPN E-LAN the 88-LC1-36EH Line Cards |
The BUM ingress replication is now supported on routers with the 88-LC1-36EH line cards. |
|
You can now proactively monitor connectivity and verify faults and isolate them for EVPN services. This is because Ethernet Connectivity Fault Management (CFM) is now available for EVPN and provides end-to-end service level OAM (Operations, Administration, and Maintenance) for EVPN services. This feature is supported only on routers with Q200 and 88-LC1-36EH line cards. |
|
|
Core Isolation by Interface Tracking on the 88-LC1-36EH Line Cards |
The core isolation by interface tracking is now supported on routers with the 88-LC1-36EH line cards. |
|
Detect and Block Duplicate MAC Addresses on the 88-LC1-36EH Line Cards |
The Detect and Block Duplicate MAC Addresses feature is now supported on the 88-LC1-36EH line cards. |
|
EVPN Core Isolation through Peer Failure Detection on the 88-LC1-36EH Line Cards |
EVPN Core Isolation through Peer Failure Detection is now supported on the 88-LC1-36EH line cards. |
|
The cost-out node brings down the bundle interfaces on the PE to prepare the node for reload or software upgrade. By costing out a node, the traffic is steered away from the PE without any traffic disruption. This allows you to manage the network traffic effectively while reloading or upgrading a node. This feature is supported only on routers with the 88-LC1-36EH line cards. |
|
|
Designated Forwarder (DF) election enables the access network to control EVPN PE devices by defining the backup path much before the event of a link failure. During the link failure, the PE node is aware of the next PE that will take over the active role and this reduces the traffic loss. DF election supports preference-based and access-driven mechanism. This feature is supported only on routers with the 88-LC1-36EH line cards. |
|
|
EVPN E-LAN L2 Gateway Single-Homing on the 88-LC1-36EH Line Cards |
EVPN single-homing is now supported on routers with the 88-LC1-36EH line cards. |
|
This feature introduces EVPN E-LAN single-flow-active multi-homing load balancing mode to connect PE devices in an access network that run Layer 2 access gateway protocols. In this mode, only the PE that first advertises the host MAC address in a VLAN forwards the traffic in a specific flow. When the primary link fails, the traffic quickly switches to the standby PE that learns the MAC address from the originated path, thereby providing fast convergence. The feature introduces the load-balancing-mode command with keyword, single-flow-active . This feature is supported only on routers with the 88-LC1-36EH line cards. |
|
|
We now support EVPN E-Tree with route-targets (RT) constraints using two RTs per EVI on routers with the 88-LC1-36EH line cards. |
|
|
We now enable a PE device to have both root and leaf sites for a given EVI, which increases the granularity of leaf designation from the entire bridge to AC bridge ports; ACs under a bridge may be root or leaf. This feature is supported on routers with the 88-LC1-36EH line cards. |
|
|
EVPN multi-homing enables you to connect a customer edge (CE) device to two or more provider edge (PE) devices to provide redundant connectivity. When the primary link fails, the standby PE device becomes active immediately, ensuring no traffic disruption and providing faster convergence. This feature is supported only on routers with the 88-LC1-36EH line cards. |
|
|
You can configure EVPN to run multiple services on a single Ethernet Segment (ES), which enables the efficient use of network resources. While the services run on the same physical hardware resource, each service can be associated with a different EVPN instance and separated from each other. This allows traffic segregation, which enables users to employ their own traffic management configurations. This feature is supported only on routers with the Q200 and 88-LC1-36EH line cards. |
|
|
EVPN Seamless Integration with Legacy VPWS on the Q200 and 88-LC1-36EH Line Cards |
The seamless migration of VPWS to EVPN-VPWS services on PE nodes is now supported on routers with the Q200 and 88-LC1-36EH line cards. |
|
Ethernet VPN Virtual Private Wire Service on the Q200 and 88-LC1-36EH Line Cards |
The EVPN VPWS or E-Line service is now supported on routers with the Q200 and 88-LC1-36EH line cards. |
|
The MAC mobility for EVPN E-LAN is now supported on routers with the 88-LC1-36EH line cards. |
|
|
Seamless Migration of VPLS Network to EVPN Network on the 88-LC1-36EH Line Cards |
The seamless VPLS-to-EVPN migration is now supported on routers with the 88-LC1-36EH line cards. |
|
Split-Horizon Groups for EVPN E-LAN on the 88-LC1-36EH Line Cards |
The split-horizon groups for EVPN E-LAN is now supported on routers with the 88-LC1-36EH line cards. |
|
The VRF leaking for EVPN E-LAN is now supported on routers with the 88-LC1-36EH line cards. |
|
|
A Virtual Ethernet Segment (VES) allows a Customer Edge (CE) device to connect to an EVPN service over an MPLS network, which can be used for redundancy and load balancing. This feature is supported only on routers with the 88-LC1-36EH line cards. |
|
|
L3VPN |
|
|
You can now configure the source and destination virtual tunnel endpoints (VTEPs) for a particular traffic flow, which is particularly useful for scenarios where your data center is connected to an enterprise network, so multiple servers in the data center provide cloud services to your customers and the enterprise edge router. These endpoints help provide rapid convergence in case of failure. Plus, using the UDP header in the VXLAN packet, the VXLAN static routing (also called unicast VXLAN) facilitates network balancing by preventing the transmission of replicated packets. Alternatively, you can use Service Layer API for faster provisioning of VXLAN static routing. This feature is supported only on the following PIDs:
This feature introduces these changes:

|
|
Conditional Label Advertisement in Label-Switched Path Networks |
You can now enhance your network's stability and performance with the streamlined label management. This can be achieved by configuring LDP to advertise labels to peers only when at least one labeled path is available for a prefix. Previously, LDP would advertise local labels to peers even if all next-hop paths for a specific Forwarding Equivalence Class (FEC) had no labels. This release has the following changes: CLI:
|
|
Modular QoS |
|
|
Enhanced Running Configuration Display for Policy Maps and Class Maps |
Now, you can view each class map or policy map running configuration instance on a separate line. The feature modifies the output display of this command: CLI: show run formal |
|
Global Statistics Counters for Priority Flow Control and Priority Flow Control Watchdog |
You can now view statistics for Priority Flow Control (PFC) and PFC Watchdog for all interfaces in a consolidated, compact, tabular, and easy-to-read format. We’ve also made the display of these global statistics faster by ensuring data is collected from all line cards for their interfaces and cumulatively sent to the local statistics infrastructure from where the show commands collect the data. Previously, you could view statistics only per interface for PFC and PFC Watchdog, wherein the show commands get the data from each interface. This feature modifies the following command: |
|
With this feature support for IP marking for SRv6 packets that are encapsulated, there are some important updates to the QoS behavior. This is an explicit packet marking feature that applies only to ingress QoS policies. CLI: This feature introduces the set ip encapsulation command. |
|
|
When a PE device transports IP traffic over a VXLAN tunnel that originates on the device, it automatically sets the DSCP value in the VXLAN outer IP header to 0 (CS0). |
|
|
Introduced in this release on Cisco 8000 Series Routers with Cisco Silicon One Q200 network processors. The Cisco 8608 router is not currently supported. This feature monitors egress interface traffic class queues and records the queue occupancy and queue delay high water marks information for each traffic class. This information includes the virtual output queue that experienced the high water mark and a timestamp indicating when the high water mark was recorded. You can use this data to identify network bottlenecks and prevent traffic congestion. This feature introduces these changes: Configuration CLI: EXEC commands: YANG Data Models:

Introduced in this release on Cisco 8000 Series Routers with Cisco Silicon One Q200 network processors that support the PFC buffer-extended mode function. For traffic flows between routers, you can view the pause duration of output and input queues in the transmitting andreceiving routers, respectively. Thepause duration values of the impacted traffic class queues are displayed for regular intervals within a specified time duration. With the information, you can view the extent of congestion on PFC-enabled interfaces over a period of time and identify whether traffic congestion is due to small bursts of traffic or other causes. The feature introduces these changes: CLI: YANG Data Models:

We ensure the continuous movement of traffic queues, which is crucial for enforcing QoS policies, even when hardware issues disrupt the Virtual Output Queue (VOQ) and impede the flow of traffic. With this feature, if the router detects a stuck queue on a line card, it shuts down the line card, and if it detects a stuck queue on a fabric card, the router triggers a hard reset on the NPU. A queue is considered stuck only when there is no transmission for one minute. The feature is disabled by default and can be enabled using the command hw-module voq-watchdog feature enable . The feature is supported only on Cisco 8000 Series Routers (Modular) with Cisco Silicon One Q100 or Q200 ASICs. The feature introduces these changes: CLI: |
|
|
Multicast |
|
|
Draft-Rosen is a widely used MVPN model and uses GRE tunnels to securely transmit multicast traffic between the PE routers. It also enables ease of deployment by using the Protocol-Independent Multicast (PIM) protocol between edge routers (PE) and hosts (CE), and between PE routers that are running in VRF mode. You can now configure MVPN using Draft-Rosen for profiles 0, 3, and 11. |
|
|
We have made fault detection and convergence faster for multicast routes, ensuring multicast data, such as IPTV feeds, is delivered with minimum interruptions. This is made possible because we enable the use of a Protection Global Identifier (GID) for Multicast-Only Fast Reroute (MoFRR), which allows the router to quickly identify and switch to a backup or secondary path when a failure is detected on the primary path. This feature introduces the following changes: CLI:

You now get a comprehensive view of your 5G network's performance and gain detailed insights into the slice utilization, QoS policies applied, and their impact on traffic. This includes verifying the QoS policies of the deployed slices, assessing the effectiveness of 5G slice mechanisms and tracking GTP-U endpoints for specific applications or services. This information is available because we've enabled the exporting of GTP-U related Information Elements. This feature introduces these changes: CLI:

|
|
System Security |
|
|
You can now secure communication for RADIUS packets by using Datagram Transport Layer Security (DTLS) as the transport layer for the RADIUS protocol. The RADIUS protocol continues to operate over UDP but now benefits from the added security provided by DTLS. Utilizing DTLS enables the manual distribution of long-term proof of peer identity through TLS-PSK cipher suites and the option to use X509 certificates in a PKI infrastructure. In the absence of DTLS, RADIUS packets may be subject to potential security vulnerabilities, including data exposure, replay attacks, weak authentication, and encryption vulnerabilities, especially when transmitted across untrusted networks. The feature introduces these changes: CLI:
YANG Data Models:
(see GitHub, YANG Data Models Navigator) |
|
|
You can now enable Lawful Intercept (LI) by installing and activating the LI package to enable service providers to perform surveillance on an individual (or target) as authorized by a judicial or administrative order and share the communication intercepts with law enforcement agencies. This feature is supported on Cisco 8800 series routers that have the 88-LC1-36EH line card installed. |
|
|
System Management |
|
|
You can now run your fabric links error-free using the forward error correction (FEC) technique. The feature allows you to determine the link quality by monitoring the noisy fabric links during and post bring-up. This feature introduces the hw-module fabric-fec-monitor disable command. |
|
|
You can now configure the number of fault recovery attempts by a line card, fabric card or a route processor before it permanently shuts down, thus preventing a faulty card from entering into a cycle of automatic recovery. This feature introduces the following change: CLI: YANG DATA Model:
|
|
|
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: |
|
|
You can now filter the configurations associated with a specific VRF using the show running-configuration filter vrf command. Earlier, the show running configuration command displayed configuration under a specific keyword only and that may not publish all configurations related to the object. CLI: show running-configuration filter vrf |
|
|
System Monitoring |
|
|
This feature allows you to monitor and identify the fabric links that are down due to failure to receive keep-alive messages. If a fabric link doesn’t receive the keep-alive message, the CiscoIOSXR software performs a port-reset action and tries to activate the fabric link. This feature is enabled by default. You also have the option to disable the maximum port-reset threshold value of five, which causes the link to flap again, but we recommend you avoid using this command unless you have evaluated its impact on your traffic flow. This feature introduces the hw-module fabric-tsmon-port-reset disable command, which disables the maximum port-reset threshold value. |
|
|
By introducing an inbuilt traffic generator in the Network Processing Unit (NPU) of line cards (LCs) of distributed systems and route processors (RPs) of fixed routers, we've ensured that the traffic generator is always available for network diagnostics. You also don't face compatibility issues because the traffic generator is inbuilt and easy to maintain. Previously, connecting an external traffic generator was necessary to inject packets to test networks. This feature introduces these changes: CLI:
|
|
|
You can now easily detect fabric memory corruption and packet loss by checking the health of data plane components including fabric and NPUs on a distributed system using our on-demand diagnostic utility. This functionality introduces the following commands: |
|
|
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. |
|
|
You can now collect a comprehensive list of troubleshooting data and restore network operations quickly in case of a network disruption. This release allows you to collect more tech-support data than you could in previous releases by executing the show tech-support custom command. |
|
|
You can now use the online diagnostics functionality to test the health of fabric cards and all the slices in an NPU. This feature can help you detect fabric, and slice level failures. |
|
|
We have simplified the process to collect technical support information for traffic, control-plane, and system by consolidating multiple commands for each of these parameters under the following options:
This release adds the keywords traffic , control-plane , and system to the show tech-support custom command. |
|
|
You can now assign a facility type per remote syslog server, which the router uses to calculate the priority value of the syslog messages sent. You can also configure the source address to choose the interface to send remote syslog packets per remote server. The feature introduces these changes: Modified Command: CLI
YANG Data Models:
|
|
|
Low Voltage Threshold Value Alarms Disabled |
The router will not raise a minor alarm from this release onwards when a voltage sensor goes below the lower threshold value, thus saving memory space that the alarm logs would've consumed otherwise. The router now generates alarms only when voltage sensors cross the critical threshold value. |
YANG Data Models Introduced and Enhanced
This release introduces or enhances the following data models. For detailed information about the supported and unsupported sensor paths of all the data models, see the Github repository. To get a comprehensive list of the data models supported in a release, navigate to the Available-Content.md file for the release in the Github repository. The unsupported sensor paths are documented as deviations. For example, openconfig-acl.yang provides details about the supported sensor paths, whereas cisco-xr-openconfig-acl-deviations.yang provides the unsupported sensor paths for openconfig-acl.yang on Cisco IOS XR routers.

xr-ztp 24.2.11v1.0.0-1To know about all the RPMs installed including XR, OS and other components use the show install active all command.
To view all supported Cisco IOS XR Software upgrades from the current version according to the support data installed on the running system, enter the show install upgrade-matrix running command.
The software modularity approach provides a flexible model that allows you to install a subset of IOS XR packages on devices based on your individual requirements. All critical components are modularized as packages so that you can select the features that you want to run on your router.
 Note |
The above show command output displays mandatory packages that are installed on the router. To view the optional and bug fix RPM packages, first install the package and use the show install active summary command. |
Caveats
|
Bug ID |
Headline |
|---|---|
|
BFD Session bringdown is delayed due to FIB Churn |

Behavior Changes
-
In addition to the IPV6 LPM normal entries, IPv6 LPM shortening entries are now displayed in the show controllers npu resources lpmtcam location command output to determine the total number of IPv6 routes.
-
On all Egress Traffic Management (ETM)-based platforms, when the NPU compatibility mode is set to P100, the maximum number of SPAN sessions supported on the 88-LC1-52Y8H-EM and 88-LC1-12TH24FH-E line cards are as follows:
-
ERSPAN (GRE IPv4, GRE IPv6, or GRE IPv4 + GRE IPv6): 4
-
Local SPAN: 4
-
SPAN to File: 4
-
Combined SPAN (GRE IPv4 + GRE IPv6 + Local SPAN + SPAN to File): 4
Note: For more information on NPU compatibility mode, see Configure the Comaptibility Mode.
-
-
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
nameinside theconfigcontainer must also be set to valuedefaultto satisfy the leafref constraint on the list key. -
The route-monitoring policy post inbound command is replaced by route-monitoring inbound post-policy
-
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.
Deprecated Features
-
PXE Server: Starting from Cisco IOS XR Release 24.2.11, the PXE server feature is deprecated and will not be supported in future releases. We recommend not to use this feature starting from Cisco IOS XR Release 24.2.11.
Determine Software Version
Log in to the router and enter the show version command:

Important Notes
-
The warning message that the smart licensing evaluation period has expired is displayed in the console every hour. There is, however, no functionality impact on the device. The issue is seen on routers that don’t have the Flexible Consumption licensing model enabled. To stop the repetitive messaging, register the device with the smart licensing server and enable the Flexible Consumption model. Later load a new registration token.
To register the device with the smart licensing server, see the Registering and Activating Your Router.
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. |
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.
Supported Transceiver Modules
To determine the transceivers that Cisco hardware device supports, refer to the Transceiver Module Group (TMG) Compatibility Matrix tool.
Cisco IOS XR Error messages
To view, search, compare, and download Cisco IOS XR Error Messages, refer to the Cisco IOS XR Error messages tool.
Cisco IOS XR MIBs
To determine the MIBs supported by platform and release, refer to the Cisco IOS XR MIBs tool.
