Cisco Flexible NetFlow (FNF) Restrictions

I've configured Flexible NetFlow (FNF) in a Cisco ASR1K router and sourced it from GigabitEthernet0 (Mgmt-intf), which is the default out-of-band management interface. I wasn't getting any NetFlow statistics in the collector server and found out in this Cisco link that FNF export isn't supported in the management port (below is a snippet). You'll notice in the show flow exporter statistics indicated a "failed to send" flow.

 

Restrictions for Flexible NetFlow

The following are restrictions for Flexible NetFlow:

 

Flexible NetFlow export is not supported on the Ethernet management port, Gi0/0. 

 

ASR1K#show flow exporter statistics

Flow Exporter MyNetflow:

  Packet send statistics (last cleared 00:00:05 ago):

    Successfully sent:         0                     (0 bytes)

    Reason not given:          49                    (64052 bytes)

 

  Client send statistics:

    Client: Option options application-name

      Records added:           0

      Bytes added:             0

 

    Client: Option options application-attributes

      Records added:           0

    Client: Flow Monitor MyNetflow

      Records added:           1138

        - failed to send:      1138

      Bytes added:             62590

        - failed to send:      62590

 

So I used a different source interface (sub-interface) and VRF which can still reach the NetFlow collector server. Notice the "failed to send" flows had disappeared.

To perform a file transfer in a Cisco ASR920, use the copy nvram:startup-config <ftp/tftp://<REMOTE IP> command. Make sure the source interface can reach the remote file server.

ASR920#ping 172.27.5.3
Type escape sequence to abort.
Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 172.27.5.3, timeout is 2 seconds:

25314 bytes copied in 10.516 secs (2407 bytes/sec)

 

I renamed the file to startup-config2 (to avoid any file conflict), transferred it to the new Cisco ASR920, boot the new config using copy nvram:startup-config2 running-config and issued write memory to save config. Booting the new startup-config to running-config only took a few seconds.

This greatly speeds up staging a new router (in this case RMA replacement). It also lessens the human error if you have a big configuration file.

Cisco ASR920 License Install (non Smart License)

I had to RMA a Cisco ASR920 router due to a faulty port and unable to detect the inserted SFP. I also requested the Cisco TAC License team to generate a new license file (Traditional/PAK license) based on the feature licenses on the previous ASR920 (bundled in a single license). You'll need to use the new chassis serial number to generate the new PAK license. 

The RMA ASR920 came with the default IOS-XE version 16.9.3, so it's easy for to upgrade to any 16.x code. I had a previous post regarding the IOS-XE upgrade in a Cisco ASR920. The RMA also doesn't come with new hot-swappable power supply unit (PSU) so you had to swap out the PSU from the old to new ASR920.

Cisco ASR1001-X Throughput License

The Cisco ASR1001-X Throughput license is an honor-based license. Meaning, there's no need to purchase the 20 Gbps Throughput Product Activation Key (PAK) license. Just simply activate it, accept the End User License Agreement (EULA) and reload the router to take effect.

Cisco IOS XE Software feature licenses

◦    Certain functions supported on the Cisco ASR 1000 Series require feature licenses.

◦    All Cisco ASR 1000 feature and performance upgrade licenses are honor-based; that is, they are not enforced through a Product Activation Key (PAK). Note: Prior to Cisco IOS XE Software Release 3.7S, performance upgrade licenses that are required to upgrade the Cisco ASR 1001 from 2.5 to 5 Gbps or the Cisco ASR 1002-X from 5 to 10 to 20 to 36 Gbps are enforced through a PAK. Similarly, prior to Cisco IOS XE Software Release 3.6S, technology package licenses are enforced through a PAK.

on an evaluation basis, without payment to Cisco, for 60 days. Your use
of the  product,  including  during the 60 day  evaluation  period,  is
subject to the Cisco end user license agreement
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/general/warranty/English/EU1KEN_.html
If you use the product feature beyond the 60 day evaluation period, you
must submit the appropriate payment to Cisco for the license. After the
60 day  evaluation  period,  your  use of the  product  feature will be
governed  solely by the Cisco  end user license agreement (link above),
together  with any supplements  relating to such product  feature.  The
above  applies  even if the evaluation  license  is  not  automatically
terminated  and you do  not receive any notice of the expiration of the
evaluation  period.  It is your  responsibility  to  determine when the
evaluation  period is complete and you are required to make  payment to
Cisco for your use of the product feature beyond the evaluation period.

Your  acceptance  of  this agreement  for the software  features on one
product  shall be deemed  your  acceptance  with  respect  to all  such
software  on all Cisco  products  you purchase  which includes the same
software.  (The foregoing  notwithstanding, you must purchase a license
for each software  feature you use past the 60 days evaluation  period,
so  that  if you enable a software  feature on  1000  devices, you must
purchase 1000 licenses for use past  the 60 day evaluation period.)    

Activation  of the  software command line interface will be evidence of
your acceptance of this agreement.

Deploy Juniper vMX in GNS3

I needed a Juniper virtual lab to refresh my Junos OS CLI, so the easiest way is to deploy a virtual MX (vMX) in GNS3. You'll need a vMX qcow2 file to run in GNS3.

Go to Edit >Preferences > QEMU > Qemu VM >New > select New Image >browse the .qcow2 file.

It will automatically upload the image. Just click Finish when it's done.

Select vMX > click Edit.

Under Symbol > click Browse.

To distinguish between a Cisco and Juniper router, under General settings tab > Symbol > select: Affinity-circle-blue > select: Router > click OK.

Go to Network tab > Adapters: type 3 (or click up arrow).

Click OK > Apply.

Click Browse all devices (left-hand side) > click/drag vMX.

I've deployed two vMX, a Cisco L2 switch and a Cisco 7200 router in my JNCIA lab.

I just ran/power on a single vMX and the L2 switch to play around with Junos CLI.
