FAQs

Q: Why choose RP3 TR over RP2 TR?
A: RP3 TR provides next-generation control-plane performance and scale, offering more headroom for transport-oriented control protocols and services.

Q: Does the RP include forwarding hardware?
A: No. Forwarding is performed by line cards; the RP manages routing, control protocols, and system functions.

Q: Can I mix RP generations in one chassis?
A: Mixing may have restrictions. For best results and HA pairing, use matching RP models and confirm compatibility in the applicable software release notes.

Q: Is software licensing included?
A: Licenses are not bundled with the hardware; validate your IOS XR licensing separately.
