ASR 9000 nV Satellite Overview
Plug-n-play, zero touch satellite access device
nv fabric links
Satellite
One ASR 9000 nV System Host
Satellite and ASR 9000 Host run satellite protocol for auto-discovery, provisioning and
management
Satellite and Host could co-locate or in different location. There is no distance limit between
satellite and Host
The connection between satellite and host is called nv fabric link, which could be L1 or over
L2 virtual circuit (future)
Satellite access port has the same feature parity as ASR9K local port,
it works/feels just as local port
