FAQs

Q: Is MACsec available on all 32 ports?
A: MACsec is supported per port by this MPA; actual enablement and scale depend on the host line card resources and IOS XR version.

Q: Do I need special SFPs for MACsec?
A: MACsec operates at the link layer and typically does not require special optics; ensure your platform and software support MACsec on the chosen ports.

Q: Can I mix fiber and copper SFPs?
A: Yes, mixed media is generally supported across SFP slots; final support depends on the line card and software release.

Q: What use cases fit this module?
A: Secure campus/metro access, encrypted backhaul, and multi-tenant edge where 1G density and link encryption are required.

Q: Does it require a specific line card?
A: Use with an ASR 9000 modular line card that provides MPA bays and supports MACsec; consult your line card datasheet.
