Simple Ring Satellite Nv Topology; Simple Ring Topology Configuration - Cisco ASR 9000 Series System Configuration Manual

Simple Ring Satellite nV Topology

2 All the advanced Satellite nV network topologies are supported on the Cisco ASR9000v, Cisco
ASR9000v-V2, and Cisco ASR 901 Satellite types.
3 On the 10 Gigabit Ethernet Cisco ASR 901 AC model, 10G ports for ICL or access port is not supported.
Simple Ring Satellite nV Topology
These are the salient features of this topology:
• A satellite or ring of satellites can be dual-homed to two hosts. In the following figure, all the three
• The two hosts communicate using the ORBIT protocol over ICCP.
• In simple ring topology, the satellite chassis serial number is a mandatory configuration to identify the
• When the ring span is broken. the satellite and hosts detect the link failure using LOS mechanism and
• The link failure is detected by LOS (loss of signal) in the case of Ring and Hub and Spoke topologies.
