  • Integrates with Cisco IOS XR software for seamless provisioning
  • Provides traffic isolation and policy enforcement across virtual networks
  • Reduces need for extra physical routers by consolidating services
  • Optimized for high-density data center and carrier environments

Technical Specifications

  • Model/Part Number: A9K-IVRF-LIC
  • Compatible Platform: Cisco ASR 9000 Series (line cards supporting VRF)
  • License Type: Per-line card, non-transferable
  • Software Requirement: Cisco IOS XR release 5.2 or later
  • Maximum VRFs per line card: 64
  • Activation Method: License activation through Cisco Smart Licensing portal
