Frequently Asked Questions
What is the primary function of the Cisco ASR1000-ESP5 within an ASR 1000 series router? +
The Cisco ASR1000-ESP5 acts as the Embedded Services Processor for the ASR 1000 series. It is responsible for handling high-speed data plane traffic, including packet forwarding, encryption, firewall features, and Quality of Service (QoS) enforcement. By offloading these intensive tasks from the main processor, it ensures consistent throughput and optimized network performance for demanding enterprise environments.
Does the Cisco ASR1000-ESP5 support hardware-accelerated encryption for VPN traffic? +
Yes, the ASR1000-ESP5 is specifically designed to provide hardware-accelerated performance for cryptographic functions. This includes support for IPsec VPNs, which allows the module to handle heavy encryption and decryption workloads without impacting the overall router performance. It is an ideal component for organizations requiring secure site-to-site connectivity and high-speed data protection across their wide area network.
What kind of throughput capacity should I expect when deploying the ASR1000-ESP5? +
The ASR1000-ESP5 is rated for 5 Gbps of forwarding throughput. This capacity makes it a suitable choice for mid-range enterprise edge deployments or branch offices that require robust routing capabilities combined with advanced services. When integrated into the chassis, it ensures that your network traffic is processed efficiently, maintaining low latency even during periods of high demand.
Can the ASR1000-ESP5 be used in a redundant configuration with other ESP modules? +
Yes, in chassis models that support dual ESPs, you can configure the ASR1000-ESP5 for stateful switchover or redundancy. This setup provides high availability, ensuring that if the primary processor encounters an issue, the system can failover to the secondary module seamlessly. This architecture is essential for mission-critical enterprise environments where minimizing network downtime is a primary operational requirement.
Which Cisco ASR 1000 series chassis are compatible with the ASR1000-ESP5? +
The ASR1000-ESP5 is compatible with several routers within the ASR 1000 series product family, including the ASR 1004, ASR 1006, and ASR 1013 models. Compatibility depends on the specific software version and hardware configuration of your chassis. Always verify your current IOS XE version and hardware installation guide to ensure the ESP aligns with your existing backplane and control processor modules.
How does the ASR1000-ESP5 handle advanced Quality of Service (QoS) tasks? +
This module performs advanced QoS processing, including complex hierarchical queuing, shaping, and policing at the hardware level. Because these operations are executed on the ESP rather than the route processor, the router can maintain strict traffic prioritization and bandwidth management policies even at full line rate, preventing network congestion and ensuring mission-critical applications receive the necessary resources.
Is the ASR1000-ESP5 a hot-swappable component? +
The ASR1000-ESP5 is designed to be a field-replaceable unit. In chassis that support redundant ESP configurations, it can be removed or replaced while the router remains powered, provided a secondary ESP is active to maintain the traffic flow. If you are operating in a single-ESP configuration, the router must be powered down to safely install or replace this module.
Does the ASR1000-ESP5 require specific software versions to function correctly? +
To ensure full compatibility and access to all feature sets, the ASR1000-ESP5 requires a specific version of Cisco IOS XE software. Using an outdated software version may result in the module not being recognized or operating with limited capabilities. We recommend checking the Cisco software advisor tool for your specific chassis model to determine the minimum software release required for this module.
How can I obtain a bulk quote for multiple ASR1000-ESP5 units for my infrastructure project? +
