    Cisco PRP-3 Overview

    The Cisco® XR 12000 Performance Router Processor-3 (PRP-3, Figure 1) is the premium route processor for the Cisco XR 12000 Series Routers, addressing the unique route processing requirements of carrier-grade IP and Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) packet infrastructures. It also provides a Building Integrated Timing Supply (BITS) interface, a component of the Cisco XR 12000 Series BITS architecture that will enable network service synchronization on the platform in the future.

    Product Features and Benefits

    The Cisco XR 12000 PRP-3 delivers all the previously listed functions with enhanced performance and capabilities. It also delivers the following feature enhancements:

    • ● Gigabit Ethernet management ports (additional port added since PRP-2)
    • ● Hard-drive support (optional part; double the memory capacity of the PRP-2)
    • ● BITS input ports (to address future network service synchronization requirements)
    • ● Up to 4-GB compact flash memory image support (identical device used for internal and external flash to simplify inventory)
    • ● Memory scalability up to 8 GB (double the memory capacity of the PRP-2)

    Product Applications

    This premium route processor 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 OS software system images to all installed line cards upon powering up
    • ● Providing out-of-band system console and auxiliary ports and Ethernet ports for router configuration and maintenance
    • ● Monitoring and managing the power and temperature of system components such as line cards, power supplies, and fans
