Software Feature Summary
Th e 2-port OC-192c/STM-64c POS line card operates at a clock speed of 20 gigabits per second (Gbps) and is fully interoperable with all earlier releases of the Cisco 12000 Series line cards.
The dedicated layer 3 forwarding engine (Engine 6) supports an IP version 4 and Multiprotocol label switching (IP/MPLS) feature set, which includes advanced quality of service (QoS), accounting (sampled NetFlow), security and traffic control, and committed access rate (CAR).
Supported features include:
- Extended ACLs— More than 32,000 entries on both ingress and egress with filtering on source or destination IP addresses and transport protocols.
- Hardware support for more than one million IP prefixes and up to 256,000 multicast groups. for VPN and multicast applications
- Rate-limiting, classification, and bandwidth management using Committed Access Rate (CAR), which allows service providers to control access to internal network resources, provides protection against denial of service attacks, and delivers tiered services such as "pay-as-you-grow" bandwidth usage models.
- Precedence marking (packet coloring), which allows the class of service (CoS) field in IP or the EXP field in MPLS to be marked to the specified QoS for different classes of service.
- Weighted Random Early Detection (WRED) congestion control/query management, which allows selective discard of low-priority flows before dropping packets from higher-priority flows
- Modified Deficit Round Robin (MDRR) with low-latency queuing, which provides class-based packet queuing that controls the packet dequeuing process to guarantee transit latency for differentiated flows.
- Traffic shaping, which helps service providers build tiered service models by absorbing "bursty" traffic in both the ingress and egress directions, to present smooth flows to both internal network resources and customer networks
- Link bundling, which enables load sharing over multiple links
Layer 1 and 2 Encapsulation Protocols
The 2-port OC-192c/STM-64c POS line card supports a maximum transmission unit (MTU) of up to 9188 bytes. POS channel is supported with up to eight interfaces in hardware.
- Packet over SONET (POS)
- Synchronous Digital Hierarchy (SDH)
- High-Level Data Link Control protocol (HDLC)
- IETF RFC 1490, Frame Relay encapsulation
- RFC 1619/2615, Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) over SONET/SDH

Note There is no subinterface support for HDLC, PPP, and Frame Relay

- Input/Output CAR conform and exceed actions: transmit, drop, set precedence and transmit.
- Output rate pacing per Class of Service queue and per port, based on single leaky bucket counters.
- Input 32K-rule CAR applied to CPU destined traffic with priority mapping.
Precedence Mapping
- Supports port-based 8-bit TOS, TAG CoS, VLAN priority, to 3-bit priority, precedence mapping (that is, 0->1, 1->4, 7->3) before rate limiting on input.
- Support similar precedence mapping on output before rate limiting or queueing.

- Supports 8 CoS queues for CPU traffic.
- Prioritized, selective access to memory resources for CPU bound traffic, enabling memory reservation for CPU bound traffic.

- Supports two-priority backpressure from to-fabric interface.
Tx Side Queueing
- Supports 8 unicast CoS queues per port.
- H/W support per CoS, per output port, per linecard queue backpressure.
- Supports 8 CoS queues for CPU traffic.
- Prioritized, selective access to memory resources for CPU bound traffic, enabling memory reservation for CPU bound traffic.

- Supports output rate pacing per port and per CoS queue.
Multicast
Full hardware multicast support:
- No packet replication on source line card.
- Isolation of unicast and multicast traffic in separate queues on source line card to prevent head-of-line-blocking.
- Fabric based replication to destination line card(s). A single packet copy reaches each destination line card.
- Further packet duplication in the Tx side queuing module, with control of overall bandwidth usage split between unicast and multicast traffic.
Routing
- Supports for IPv4 unicast and multicast forwarding, and MPLS unicast forwarding, with IP to MPLS and MPLS to IP translation.
- Improved scalability of IP/MPLS forwarding lookup, using 256MB of external DRAM (32 MB lookup entries).
- Improved adjacency lookup, supported by internal DRAM. Up to 128 Kb adjacencies supported.
- Improved memory efficiency of IP multicast lookup.
- Supports bi-directional PIM for multicast.
- Support Reverse Path Forwarding (RPF) check for IP unicast traffic.
- Supports IP and MPLS load balancing (16 next hops) at flow and packet level.
- Supports adjacency bundling based on IP TOS or MPLS CoS.
- Supports independent routing table per input port, per unicast/multicast and per IP/MPLS.
MPLS and MPLS Class of Service
- MPLS label processing:
- Six labels maximum can be pushed per tagged packet (one of which is a replace if the packet is a tagged packet)
- Two labels maximum can be popped per packet.
- Forwarding for tagged packets based upon the IP header only be provided for tagged packets with a tag stack of depth one.
- Supports CoS by applying features to MPLS CoS field:
- Precedence mapping based on the label
- Rate limiting on the label precedence field
· Queue selection based on label precedence field
