Cisco ASR 1001-X IOS-XE 3.x to 16.x Software Upgrade

Here's a link for the IOS-XE 16.x series and the procedure in upgrading ROMmon in a Cisco ASR 1000 series. Below is the IOS-XE upgrade from 3.x to 16.x that I performed in a Cisco ASR 1001-X router. You first upgrade the ROMmon to the compatible IOS-XE 16.x version.

Cisco Transceiver Module Group (TMG) Compatibility Matrix

I visited the Sungei Buloh Wetland Reserve to check out the mangrove forest, migratory birds and even crocodiles. This nature reserve is Singapore's first ASEAN Heritage park. Unfortunately, I was only able to spot a monitor lizard and a few migratory birds during my visit. There are walking trails, mangrove boardwalk and observation pods that you could use in your trek.

You can almost see Malaysia just across the Johor Straits.

After a long trek, I treated myself with a Jollibee Chickenjoy and Yumburger in Woodlands.

Here's a link for the Cisco Transceiver Module Group (TMG). Cisco TMG is a free online tool that allows you to search for genuine Cisco Small Form-Factor Pluggable (SFP) or transceiver and shows you a matrix of supported Cisco devices (usually Catalyst switches), its minimum IOS version, data rate and cable type/media.

 

In the example, I tried to verify if a Cisco Nexus 5K switch will support a GLC-TE copper SFP.

You can also export the search result either into an Excel or PDF file.

Cisco Commerce (CCW)

You can go to Cisco Commerce (a.k.a. Cisco Commerce Workspace or CCW) to compile a list of your needed Cisco hardware. This helps the IT or Project Manager create a Bill of Materials (BOM) to estimate the price (in USD) and lead time for their project. You'll need a valid CCO login to access this online tool.

In this example, I created an estimate quotation for a Cisco ASR 1001-X router. I go to Catalog > Products > Routers.

Click Service Provider Core Routers. It will redirect you to WAN Aggregation and Internet Edge Routers below.

Under WAN Aggregation and Internet Edge Routers > click Cisco ASR 1000 Series Aggregation Services Routers

Select ASR1001-X-5G-K9 > click Configure

Notice the Software License and power were already included in the sample quotation.

Go back to the Router list > select ASR1001-X-5G-K9 > click Add to Cart.

Notice there's an Estimate ID created, Estimated Lead Time (70 days) and Total Price (inclusive of Service charge).

 

You can Save/Email/Share/Delete the sample quotation.

 

Cisco Device Coverage Checker (SMARTnet Warranty)

There's a Cisco portal where you can find all their web tools such as the Download Software, ASA CLI Analyzer and Device Coverage Checker. The Cisco Device Coverage Checker is a quick way to verify the device serial number for Cisco SMARTnet coverage or warranty.

Once you're in the Cisco portal, click Device Coverage Checker (CCO login required) > type/paste the Serial Number > click Check.

I issued a show inventory to check if my lab switch is still covered.

SW1#show inventory

I tried to check a device serial number with a valid SMARTnet. Notice under Contract > Status: Covered until 2023. It also provides the Contract number and site installation (with Google map).

 

Cisco ASR 920 Router 3.x to 16.12.x IOS-XE Upgrade

The IOS-XE 16.x series was first released in November 2015. It uses code names of famous mountains/places (Fuji, Everest, etc) and covers two minor release trains, i.e. Denali  covers 16.1.x to 16.3.x minor releases. The Cisco IOS XE 16.x and 17.x Software releases are time-based, each with a fixed release date. The schedule specifies 3 individual software releases per year at 4 month intervals.

Each Cisco IOS-XE software release is classified as either a Standard-Support release or an Extended-Support release.

Standard-Support Release
A sustaining support lifetime of 12 months from First Customer Shipment (FCS) with scheduled rebuilds.

Extended-Support release Details
A sustaining support lifetime of 36 months from First Customer Shipment (FCS) with scheduled rebuilds.

Note the Cisco IOS-XE Software Release 16.9 is the first Extended-Support release under the 16.x series to support 36 months and Cisco IOS-XE Software Release 17.3 is the first Extended-Support release under the 17.x series. Every subsequent third release (for example, Cisco IOS-XE Software releases 16.12, 17.6, 17.9 etc.) will also be an Extended Maintenance release.

I had to perform an IOS-XE upgrade on a Cisco ASR 920 router from 3.x to 16.12.x (Gibraltar). I upgraded the ROMMON firmware first to be compatible with the IOS-XE 16.12.x code.

The IOS-XE 16.12.4 upgrade took around 25 minutes. The license key (port license) remained intact. Note the tacacs-server host <TACACS IP> command was deprecated and replaced by the server-private <TACACS+ IP> key <TACACS+ KEY> under the aaa group server sub-command in IOS-XE 16.12.2

If you've been configuring Cisco devices long enough, you'll always see this log:

Warning: The cli will be deprecated soon
'tacacs-server host 10.1.1.1'
Please move to 'tacacs server <name>' CLI
