Cisco XR 12000 and 12000 Series Performance

Route Processor-2

The Cisco

XR 12000 and 12000 Series Performance Route Processor-2 (PRP-2) is the

next-generation route processor for all Cisco XR 12000 and 12000 series routers. The

Cisco PRP-2 offers up to 100-percent performance improvement on most system tasks,

up to 4 GB of memory, a Gigabit Ethernet management port, and a hard drive option. The

Cisco PRP-2 delivers the scalability needed for service and network convergence. It also

provides a Building Integrated Timing Supply (BITS) interface, a component of the Cisco

XR 12000 and Cisco 12000 series BITS architecture that will enable network service

synchronization on the platform in the future.

Product Overview

The Cisco PRP-2 (Figure 1) is the next-generation route processor for the Cisco XR 12000 and

12000 series routers, addressing the unique route processing requirements of carrier-grade IP and

Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) packet infrastructures. It is responsible for the following

functions:

●

Executing routing protocol stacks

●

Performing all protocol communications with other routers

●

Building and distributing forwarding information to all line cards

●

Uploading the operating system software system images to all installed line cards upon

powering up

●

Providing out-of-band system console and auxiliary ports and an Ethernet port for router

configuration and maintenance

●

Monitoring and managing the power and temperature of system components such as line

cards, power supplies, and fans
