The Cisco QFP provides a leap in
performance and resiliency for route
processors . The architecture and
performance levels achieved by
the Cisco QFP allows applications
such as IPsec processing (firewall),
Session Border Controller (SB/C), and
others to run natively on the ASR 1000
Series without the need for additional
service blades or appliances .
The Cisco QFP also provides highly
advanced QoS architecture .
The Cisco ASR 1000 Series
provides carrier-class reliability and
high-availability through a distributed
architecture that separates the data
plan from control plane functions .
The ASR 1006 Router can be
configured with redundant Route
Processors (RP) and Embedded
Services Processors (ESP) to provide
hardware redundancy within the
