Cisco IOS XR Cartridge Overview and Installation

1 Cisco IOS XR Cartridge Overview and Installation

This chapter gives a brief overview of the cartridge, and outlines the tasks involved in installing the Oracle Communications IP Service Activator Cisco IOS XR cartridge, and IP Service Activator support for Cisco devices.

Cartridge Overview

IP Service Activator cartridges enable you to support your existing services, emerging services, and business needs. The cartridges operate in conjunction with the IP Service Activator core product. The Cisco IOS XR cartridges support the existing Label Switched Path (LSP), Layer 3 Multi Protocol Label Switching (MPLS) Virtual Private Network (VPN), Quality of Service (QoS), Layer 2 VPN, and Interface Configuration Management modules. For more information, see IP Service Activator Concepts.

Installing the Cartridge

For cartridge installation procedures, see IP Service Activator Installation Guide.

IP Service Activator supports extensible configuration policies that can be viewed and edited using the IP Service Activator graphical user interface (GUI), the OSS Integration Manager (OIM), and also the OSS Java Development Library (OJDL).

For the configuration policy installation procedure, see IP Service Activator Installation Guide.

For more information on configuration policies, interface policy registration and interface/sub-interface creation, see IP Service Activator online Help.

General IP Service Activator Features

Label Switched Path

The IP Service Activator Cisco IOS XR cartridge supports the appropriate IOS XR LSP related commands and capabilities. It generates the following commands to enable MPLS LSP functionality on IOS XR:

explicit-path name MyPath
  index 10 next-address strict  ipv4 unicast 10.20.30.40
  index 20 next-address strict  ipv4 unicast 10.30.50.70
exit

interface tunnel-te60
  description My LSP 60
  ipv4 unnumbered Ethernet0/0
  destination 37.1.1.252
  autoroute announce
  autoroute metric absolute 30
  signalled-bandwidth 3
  priority 2 1
  affinity a0 mask b0
  path-option 5 explicit name MyPath
exit

The Cisco IOS XR cartridge supports the following configuration in global configuration mode:

mpls ldp
  interface <tunnel name1>
  exit

  interface <tunnel name2>
  exit
exit

The following section can help you understand the differences in support between the Cisco IOS XR cartridge and the Cisco IOS cartridge. The Cisco IOS cartridge supports the appropriate IOS LSP related commands and capabilities. It generates commands to enable MPLS LSP functionality on IOS and is different from those generated for IOS XR. They are as follows:

ip explicit-path name MyPath enable
  next-address 10.20.30.40
  next-address 10.30.50.70
exit

interface Tunnel60
  description My LSP 60
  ip unnumbered Ethernet0/0
  tunnel destination 37.1.1.252
  tunnel mode mpls traffic-eng
  tunnel mpls traffic-eng autoroute announce
  tunnel mpls traffic-eng autoroute metric absolute 30
  tunnel mpls traffic-eng bandwidth 3
  tunnel mpls traffic-eng priority 2 1
  tunnel mpls traffic-eng affinity 0xA mask 0xB
  tunnel mpls traffic-eng path-option 5 explicit name MyPath
exit

Table 1-2 lists the Label Switched Path (LSP) support on the IP Service Activator Cisco IOS XR cartridge.

Note:

Interior Gateway Protocols (IGP) metric ranges are as follows: Absolute: 1 to 2147483647; Relative: -10 to 10.
