CISCO CARRIER ROUTING SYSTEM

The Cisco® Carrier Routing System (CRS-1) is the first packet communications system that

enables service providers to increase business profitability, technical flexibility, and operational

efficiency while delivering a suite of services including data, voice, and video over a highly

available, highly scalable, converged packet infrastructure. The primary attributes of the Cisco

CRS-1 include:

UNPARALLELED SYSTEM LONGEVITYThe Cisco CRS-1 is the industry’s only carrier routing system that scales up to 92 terabits per

second (Tbps), powering the first OC-768c/STM-256c IP interface and supporting up to 1152

40-Gbps line-card slots. It simplifies today’s networks while protecting investments for decades

to come.

CONTINUOUS SYSTEM OPERATIONThe Cisco CRS-1 is built on Cisco IOS® XR Software, the industry’s only self-healing operating

system for multi-shelf, multi-terabit carrier infrastructure. This micro-kernel-based operating

system provides granular process independence, fault containment, and isolation. With these

unique capabilities, the Cisco CRS-1 can be maintained, upgraded, enhanced, and scaled without

any service interruptions.

UNPRECEDENTED SERVICE FLEXIBILITY WITH CISCO INTELLIGENT SERVICEFLEX DESIGNThe Cisco CRS-1 combines the Cisco Silicon Packet Processor (SPP), the world’s most

sophisticated 40-Gbps ASIC, and Cisco IOS XR Software with a unique Service Separation

Architecture and Service-Intelligent Switch Fabric—to provide maximum service flexibility and

capability. With comprehensive service separation and complete line-rate feature flexibility, the

Cisco CRS-1 provides the capabilities required to deliver converged network services today.

NETWORK AND SERVICE CONVERGENCE FOUNDATION

Service providers have recognized that service-specific networks, complex network

architectures, and connectivity-only services do not adequately meet their business needs and

the growing demands of their customers. Until now, network point-of-presence (POP) functions

such as core, peering, aggregation, and edge have been handled by providers deploying

function-specific routing nodes to meet the individual needs of each network function. This

traditional POP design has required that providers redesign their networks every three to five

years to meet growth challenges and service demands. At the same time, to increase efficiency

and profitability, service providers must lower their capital and operating expenses while

increasing their customer reach and revenue.

To satisfy the service demands of customers and business metrics of shareholders, service

providers are looking to simplify their POP architecture while delivering network and service

convergence to meet their business, technical, and operational goals.

The Cisco CRS-1 is the first system to truly integrate multiple POP functions into a single system,

providing the scalability and reliability for network convergence and delivering robust service

intelligence for data, voice, and video service convergence. The Cisco CRS-1 blurs the traditional

lines of core, peering, aggregation, and edge functions—allowing service providers to think

beyond current network design limitations and capture the benefits of a single, reliable,

scalable routing system.

Service providers deploying the Cisco CRS-1 today can attain immediate benefits in their core

networks—a single Cisco CRS-1 16-Slot Shelf System can replace multiple existing routing

nodes in addition to the added reliability and service flexibility that was previously unavailable

in packet networks. Carriers can expand the scale, footprint and function of the Cisco CRS-1 to

include other POP functions such as peering, aggregation, and high-speed edge services to meet

network and service demands for decades to come.

SYSTEM OVERVIEW AND ATTRIBUTES

SYSTEM OVERVIEWThe Cisco CRS-1 can be deployed in two configurations: a Single-Shelf System and a Multi-Shelf

System. The Single-Shelf System integrates the innovative multi-stage switching into a single

Line Card Chassis that delivers 1.2Tbps of switching capacity and 16 40G line card slots. The

Multi-Shelf System consists of up to 72 Line Card Chassis interconnected with up to 8 Fabric

Card Chassis to deliver up to 1152 40Gbps line card slots and 92 Tbps of total switching capacity.

UNPARALLELED SYSTEM LONGEVITY The Cisco CRS-1 scales seamlessly from a single-shelf to multi-shelf system without service

disruption enabling service providers to plan, design, trial, and deploy services over a single

system for decades to come. The Cisco CRS-1 completely separates control, data, and

management planes allowing the system to uniquely scale with capabilities such as:

Control planeIndividual system processes can be placed on specific route processors or be given an “affinity”

between a range of route processing resources. Distributed Route Processors (DRPs) can

be added to any available line card slot in the system – providing nearly infinite control

plane scalability.

Data planeWith support for up to 1152 OC-768c/STM-256c, 4608 OC-192c/STM-64c, and 18,432 OC-48c/

STM-16c interfaces only the CRS-1 can scale up to 92Tbps without service disruption.

Management planeThe Cisco CRS-1 management database provides native management of the system via either

CLI or XML-based interfaces. The XML-based Craft Works Interface (CWI) is a visual management

tool that can seamlessly manage single-shelf or multi-shelf systems.

CONTINUOUS SYSTEM OPERATION Incorporating 20 years of Cisco networking experience in hardware and software innovations,

the Cisco CRS-1 delivers continuous system operation. Building upon this reliable foundation,

providers can offer services over a self-healing network that is always available. System

components, including service cards, route processors, controller cards, power units, and fans,

are fully redundant. Built with Cisco IOS XR Software—the industry’s first memory-protected,

micro-kernel-based operating system for multi-terabit carrier infrastructure—the Cisco CRS-1 can

be maintained, upgraded, enhanced, and scaled without any service interruption.

Self-healing softwareCisco IOS XR Software acts in a self-healing manner to first contain any fault or system error and

then use automated process recovery features to safely restart and restore full process operation.

In-service system upgradesCisco IOS XR Software enables granular software upgrades, from software maintenance

updates to major feature upgrades, with no service interruption. Only specific processes that

have been modified in an upgrade package are altered, reducing the test cycle and increasing

system reliability.

In-service capability enhancementsProviders can add new service packages, such as Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) or

multicast, to the Cisco CRS-1 through software package upgrades without taking the system

offline or interrupting existing traffic and services. This enables providers to introduce services

incrementally. In addition, Distributed Route Processors (DRPs) can be placed in any available

line-card slot to scale services and distribute processes.

SYSTEM ATTRIBUTES

Self-defending systemThe self-defending nature of the Cisco CRS-1 system allows it to automatically recognize

distributed-denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks and prevent system overload even under attack.

With an embedded event manager and secure audit trails, the Cisco CRS-1 can proactively

monitor and defend against attacks, while providing tools to trace network security violations.

In-service scalingThe Cisco CRS-1 system can be scaled, while in service, from 1.2 to 92 Tbps with the addition

of line-card shelves that are interconnected with switch fabric shelves—all without any

service interruptions.

System operation and managementThe Cisco CRS-1 provides an enhanced command-line interface (CLI) and Route Policy

Language (RPL); offline configuration development and error check as well as customizable

configuration rollback; automated, proactive system monitoring; and role-based management.

CISCO INTELLIGENT SERVICEFLEX DESIGNUsing the Cisco Intelligent ServiceFlex design, the Cisco CRS-1 is the only routing system to

combine all beneficial elements of service-specific networks with the comprehensive service

flexibility and scale of IP/MPLS networks. With the Cisco CRS-1, carriers can be completely

responsive to their business strategy without increasing capital or operating expenditures.

The Cisco Intelligent ServiceFlex design includes:

Cisco Service Separation ArchitectureThe Cisco Service Separation Architecture provides total separation of traffic and network

operations on a per-service or per-customer basis within the Cisco CRS-1 system. This unique

implementation allows carriers to isolate the control, data, and management planes along with

Line Cards and Route Processors (RP) to create logical routers that operate independent from

the rest of the system. This Service Separation Architecture gives carriers the flexibility to test,

deploy, and implement a comprehensive offering of converged services with the confidence that

they can meet customer service-level agreements.

Speed-to-service elementsThe combination of the world’s most sophisticated ASIC—the 40-Gbps Cisco SPP—with Cisco

IOS XR Software, the industry’s first micro-kernel-based operating system for multi-terabit

carrier infrastructure, provides unprecedented service capabilities that speed service delivery

to customers. Each Cisco SPP combines 188 32-bit RISC processors onto a single, 100%

programmable chip. Cisco SPP implements massively parallel processing on the chip for flexible

service delivery with no performance compromises. The highly modular software of the Cisco

CRS-1 accelerates service delivery with individual packaging of feature sets to reduce

qualification and test time.

Service-Intelligent Switch FabricThe Cisco CRS-1 boasts a three-stage switch fabric, based on a Benes architecture, enhanced for

packet-based networking. This Service-Intelligent Switch Fabric is unique because it enhances a

traditional three-stage Benes architecture with native multicast replication and integrated

priority queues. With native multicast replication, service providers can efficiently scale to

deliver one service to a multitude of customers (such as video broadcast) without affecting

system or network performance. Additionally, the switch fabric incorporates traffic speedup,

which increases the flow of traffic 250% to guarantee that there is no system congestion

in the Cisco CRS-1.

ROUTE PROCESSORS

Each active Route Processor (RP) in the Cisco CRS-1 is available to execute control-plane features such as Intermediate System-to- Intermediate System (IS-IS), Border Gateway Protocol (BGP), MPLS, system management, and accounting. Each route processor man-ages shelf controller functions and supports up to 4 GB of DRAM plus a 40-Gbps hard drive for storing software images and dumps. A unique Distributed Route Processor (DRP), which can be placed in any available line-card slot, avoids memory or processing bottle-necks by scaling the control plane or adding new services as needed. The DRPs provide double the processing power of the route processors, using two dual PowerPC Symmetrical Multiprocessing CPU clusters in a symmetrical multiprocessing configuration. The route processors and DRPs support a N:M redundancy scheme whereby the function of each active route processor or DRP can be performed by a hot-standby route processor or a designated DRP in case of failure.

40-GBPS LINE CARDS

Each line card is separated by a mid-plane into two main components: the Interface Module and the MSC. Each Cisco CRS-1 line card maintains a distinct copy of the adjacency table and forwarding information databases, enabling maximum scalability and performance.

Interface ModuleThe Interface Module (IM) provides the physical connections to the network, including Layer 1 and 2 functions. Interface Modules for the Cisco CRS-1 include: 1-port OC-768c/STM-256c packet over SONET (POS), 4-port OC-192c/STM-64c POS, 16-port OC-48c/STM-16c POS, 4-port 10 Gigabit Ethernet, and 8-port 10 Gigabit Ethernet.

Modular Services CardThe MSC is the high-performance Layer 3 forwarding engine. Each MSC is equipped with two high-performance, flexible Cisco SPPs, one for ingress and one for egress packet handling. The MSC is responsible for all packet handling, including quality of service (QoS), classification, policing, and shaping, and it is equipped with three-level hierarchical queuing with a total of 16,000 queues.

SERVICE-INTELLIGENT SWITCH FABRIC

The switch fabric that provides the communications path between line cards is a three-stage, self-routed Benes architecture (a first for IP routers) with 1296 x 1296 buffering, non-blocking switching, and 1:N fabric redundancy between fabric planes. The Cisco CRS-1 performs 250% speed up and multicast replication in the switch fabric, and has separate priority queues for unicast and multicast traffic and control-plane messages.

The three stages of switching follow:Stage 1 (S1) is connected to the ingress line card, and delivers the cells across all Stage 2 fabric cards.

Stage 2 (S2) supports speedup and multicast replication, and delivers the cells to the appropriate Stage 3 fabric cards associated with the egress line-card shelf.

Stage 3 (S3) is connected to the egress line card for delivery to the appropriate interface(s) and subinterface(s).

CISCO IOS XR SOFTWARE

Because the Cisco CRS-1 has a memory- protected, micro-kernel-based software architecture, only essential processing elements, such as message passing, memory protection, and process scheduling, are done at the kernel level. The micro-kernel architecture and control-plane distribution allows for maximum resource usage, no resource bottlenecks, and excellent control-plane performance. In addition, processes such as routing and signaling protocols can run on a single route processor or be distributed over multiple route proces-sors. Regardless of where these processes are performed and which memory pool they use, they operate as if they were running on the same, single route processor. This unique software distribution capability enables control-plane scalability such that no CPU or memory usage can become a resource bottleneck.

SYSTEM ARCHITECTURE OVERVIEW

The Cisco CRS-1 is built with four key elements that enable it to deliver reliable services while scaling up to 92 Tbps. These key elements are: 40-Gbps Line Cards, Route Processors, a Service-Intelligent Switch Fabric, and Cisco IOS XR Software.

SYSTEM ATTRIBUTES

OPERATIONALLY EFFICIENT MANAGEMENTThe Cisco CRS-1 has been engineered from its inception with management efficiency as a

primary design goal. Emphasis was placed on providing a single-router view even in large,

multi-shelf installations. The CWI takes full advantage of the Extensible Markup Language (XML)

interface on the Cisco CRS-1 to provide a standalone, multi-shelf router management tool. The

CWI provides intuitive GUI-based configuration and alarm management tools, along with a

full-screen configuration text editor. In addition, Cisco IOS

XR Software uses an element management system (EMS)—

a set of management elements that help enable a self-

monitoring, self-healing network and provide a consistent

interface and functions regardless of the access method—

a CLI, XML, or Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP).

Based on Cisco Transport Manager the EMS uses the same

management system as Cisco optical systems enabling

network managers to deploy the same EMS for both optical

transport and IP/MPLS routing.

CISCO SILICON PACKET PROCESSORThe Cisco CRS-1 uses the Cisco SPP—the most sophisticated ASIC in the world today. The Cisco

SPP consists of 188 32-bit RISC processors (each of which can work independently to perform

a discrete task) per chip, helping enable 100-percent flexible, 40-Gbps processing power. The

flexibility of Cisco SPP helps enable the loading of different features for core, edge, and peer

routing, based on software code, onto the same hardware. This eliminates the need to have

specific engines for core vs. edge routing, for example. Time-to-market delivery of new features,

services, and applications is significantly accelerated because of the ease of introducing new code.

PURPOSE-BUILT OPERATING SYSTEM FOR MULTI-SHELF CARRIER INFRASTRUCTURECisco IOS XR Software, the operating system (OS) of the Cisco CRS-1, uses a memory-protected,

micro-kernel-based architecture and control-plane distribution that allows the system to scale

from 1.2 to 92 Tbps. The micro-kernel internally processes only the most essential services of the

OS, such as message passing, memory protection, and process or thread scheduling. All other

elements, which are part of the kernel in traditional OSs, such as the file system,

network drivers, and process management, are implemented outside the kernel.

This modern OS architecture design provides the basis upon which Cisco IOS XR Software

can offer unprecedented availability and scalability as well as complete separation of the data,

control, and management planes. The granular modularity ensures that only the required

processes are restarted upon process failure or during software upgrades—enabling in-

service software upgrades (ISSUs). In addition, each process, such as BGP, IS-IS and OSPF is

further segmented into individual threads and can be distributed to different processing resources.
