Processes Overview
Dual IOS Processes
The Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router introduces a dual IOS process model that allows for increased high
availability at all times.
availability at all times.
Using SSO or RPR, a second IOS process can be enabled on a Cisco ASR 1002 or 1004 Router. On Cisco
ASR 1000 Series Routers configured with dual Route Processors, the second IOS process runs on the
standby Route Processor.
ASR 1000 Series Routers configured with dual Route Processors, the second IOS process runs on the
standby Route Processor.
The state of these dual IOS processes can be checked by entering the show platform command.
The advantages of a second IOS process includes:
•
Increased fault tolerance—In the event of an active IOS failure, the second IOS process immediately
becomes the active IOS process with little to no service disruption.

•
No downtime software upgrades—IOS and other software on the router can be upgraded using the
In Service Software Upgrade (ISSU) feature in the standby IOS process, thereby allowing the
network to remain active during the software upgrade. See the
