ASR1002X-36G-SHAK9 - Cisco ASR 1000 Aggregation Services Routers

ASR1002X-36G-SHAK9 Order Identity

ASR1002X-36G-SHAK9 is a physical Cisco ASR1002-X fixed-platform router bundle at the 36 Gbps software-licensed forwarding tier. It is not a standalone software license, generic ASR 1000 chassis page or guarantee of encrypted/application throughput.

Cisco's lifecycle record describes ASR1002X-36G-SHAK9 as “ASR1002-X, 36G, Sec+HA Bundle, K9, AES license.”

ASR1002-X hardware facts

Cisco documents an integrated embedded services processor licensed for 5, 10, 20 or 36 Gbps, three half-height SPA slots, a built-in six-port Gigabit Ethernet SPA and hardware-based encryption capability. Interface modules, optics, cords, software rights and support must still be checked line by line on the supplied quote.

security plus high-availability bundle boundary

The SHA code identifies a security plus high-availability bundle family. The purchased entitlement and external HA topology must be proven by the original bill of materials and acceptance design.

36G security and HA acceptance matrix

This 36 Gbps SHA order combines the highest ASR1002-X forwarding tier in the group with Cisco's security plus HA bundle family.

Create a failure matrix covering router, circuit, power, routing, firewall, VPN and management dependencies. Identify which protections are delivered by a second node and which are only licensed capabilities.

Acceptance test

Execute the supported failures at representative load and retain recovery measurements, serial inventory, entitlement evidence and migration criteria.

Failure-domain acceptance matrix

Create rows for router loss, WAN circuit loss, power-feed interruption, routing-neighbor failure, VPN rekey fault, firewall-policy error, management isolation and log-collector outage. For every row, state detection signal, automated response, manual action, expected user impact and maximum recovery time. Run only failures supported by the approved design and record the result against the exact node serials. Any untested row remains an explicit residual risk. Link the matrix to the lifecycle replacement project so HA testing does not become a reason to indefinitely retain an aging platform.
