New and Changed Software Features


Note

Cisco IOS XE Cupertino 17.7.1a is the first release for Cisco Catalyst 8500 Series Edge Platforms in the Cisco IOS XE Cupertino 17.7.x release series.


Table 1. Software Features

Feature

Description

EVPN VPWS over Preferred Path Fallback Disable This enhancement allows you to configure an EVPN-VPWS over a preferred path using SR-TE policy. The command preferred-path segment-routing traffic-eng policy includes the fallback disable option, which allows you to configure fallback behaviour.
Flexible NetFlow Support on BD-VIF This feature introduces Flexible NetFlow (FNF) support on Bridge Domain Virtual IP Interfaces (BD-VIF). Flexible Netflow provides improved optimization and performance, enhanced security, and increased flexibility and scalability to the network. You can configure FNF on a BD-VIF using the ip flow monitor command.
Install Mode for Cisco Catalyst 8000 Series Edge platforms All the Cisco Catalyst 8000 Series Edge Platforms are now configured to boot by default in install mode instead of bundle mode. This allows you to boot the device, and upgrade or downgrade the device using a set of install commands. Install mode uses .pkg files instead of .bin file to install the package, and provides a faster installation, with increased flexibility and control.
Multicast group calculation The show ip multicast overlay-mapping command displays an underlay group address from the overlay group address which is used to troubleshoot or configure the network. The output includes the underlay group address that is within the configured SSM (Source Specific Multicast) address range.
Tunnel protection for IPIP with NAT-T When you configure the tunnel protection on an IPIP tunnel, the NAT-T configuration on the IPsec tunnel works as expected. However, the incoming packets are not processed though the Internet Security Association and Key Management Protocol and IPsec Security Association are correctly generated. To ensure that the tunnel protection on the IPIP tunnel works seamlessly, configure the tunnel mode GRE IP on both endpoints.

Programmability Features

Converting IOS Commands to XML This feature helps to automatically translate IOS commands into relevant NETCONF-XML or RESTCONF/JSON request messages.

Smart Licensing Using Policy Features

Ability to save authorization code request and return in a file and simpler upload in the CSSM Web UI

If your product instance is in an air-gapped network, you can now save a SLAC request in a file on the product instance. The SLAC request file must be uploaded to the CSSM Web UI. You can then download the file containing the SLAC code and install it on the product instance. You can also upload a return request file in a similar manner.

With this new method you do not have to gather and enter the required details on the CSSM Web UI to generate a SLAC. You also do not have to locate the product instance in the CSSM Web UI to return an authorization code.

In the CSSM Web UI, you must upload the SLAC request or return file in the same way as you upload a RUM report. In the required Smart Account, navigate to ReportsUsage Data Files.

See: No Connectivity to CSSM and No CSLU, Workflow for Topology: No Connectivity to CSSM and No CSLU, Saving a SLAC Request on the Product Instance, Removing and Returning an Authorization Code, Uploading Data or Requests to CSSM and Downloading a File

Account information included in the ACK and show command outputs

A RUM acknowledgement (ACK) includes the Smart Account and Virtual Account that was reported to, in CSSM. You can then display account information using various show commands. The account information that is displayed is always as per the latest available ACK on the product instance. See: show license summary, show license status, show license tech.

CSLU support for Linux

CSLU can now be deployed on a machine (laptop or desktop) running Linux.

See: CSLU, Workflow for Topology: Connected to CSSM Through CSLU, Workflow for Topology: CSLU Disconnected from CSSM

Factory-installed trust code

For new hardware and software orders, a trust code is now installed at the time of manufacturing.

Note 

You cannot use a factory-installed trust code to communicate with CSSM.

See: Overview, Trust Code

RUM Report optimization and availability of statistics

RUM report generation and related processes have been optimized. This includes a reduction in the time it takes to process RUM reports, better memory and disk space utilization, and visibility into the RUM reports on the product instance (how many there are, the processing state each one is in, if there are errors in any of them, and so on).

See: RUM Report and Report Acknowledgement, Upgrades, Downgrades, show license rum, show license all, show license tech.

Support for trust code in additional topologies

A trust code is automatically obtained in topologies where the product instance initiates the sending of data to Cisco Smart License Utility (CSLU) and in topologies where the product instance is in an air-gapped network.

See:

Trust Code

Connected to CSSM Through CSLU, Tasks for Product Instance-Initiated Communication

CSLU Disconnected from CSSM, Tasks for Product Instance-Initiated Communication

No Connectivity to CSSM and No CSLU, Workflow for Topology: No Connectivity to CSSM and No CSLU

Support to collect software version in a RUM report

If version privacy is disabled (no license smart privacy version global configuration ) command, the Cisco IOS-XE software version running on the product instance and the Smart Agent version information is included in the RUM report.

See: license smart (global config)

Tier- Based Licenses

You can now configure tier-based throughput values if the license PID is tier-based. For example, for PID DNA-C-T0-E-3Y, you can configure Tier 0 (T0) as the throughput value on the platform.

Each tier represents a throughput level. Starting with the lowest throughput level, the available tiers on the Cisco Catalyst 8500 Edge Series Platforms are

Tier 2 (T2), and Tier 3 (T3) on C8500L-8S4X

T3 on C8500-12X and C8500-12X4QC

If you purchase a tier-based license PID, the license is displayed with the tier value in the CSSM Web UI. You can also convert the numeric throughput configuration of any existing tier-based license PIDs to a tier-based throughput value.

Note 

T2 and higher tiers require an HSECK9 license and Smart Licensing Authorization Code (SLAC).

Different platforms support different maximum throughput levels, therefore each tier means a different value for different platforms.

The configuration guide provides details about how numeric throughput values map with tiers and how you can change to tier-based configuration.

See Available Licenses and Licensing Models.

Feature Navigator

You can use Cisco Feature Navigator (CFN) to find information about the features, platform, and software image support on Cisco Catalyst 8500 Series Edge Platforms. To access Cisco Feature Navigator, go to http://www.cisco.com/go/cfn. An account on cisco.com is not required.
