IP Sessions Scaling

The ASR 1000 Series Routers can be deployed as an IP session aggregator. The maximum number of IP
sessions that can be supported depends on the hardware combination.
combination and the maximum number of IP sessions that are supported.
The session limits apply to all variety of IP session initiators: DHCP, unclassified Mac address,
unclassified IP, and RADIUS proxy.
