Install ASR 9000 RPM

[Lapta]

Hi Folks,

I dont have much expirience on ASR 9000 and today i need to configure router eigrp on the ASR 9000. But the configuration not available.

After looking furthor on cisco doc, https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/routers/asr9000/software/asr9k-r7-0/general/release/notes/b-release-notes-asr9k-r702.html#topic_4893145A472846029AD5FD412609562C, i need to install the eigrp rpm.

Based on https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/routers/asr9000/software/asr9k-r7-0/system-setup/configuration/guide/b-system-setup-cg-asr9000-70x/b-system-setup-cg-asr9000-70x_chapter_0101.html#task_B352A894D0A24F539D9F49FA8DEE2640s the summary step should be :

SUMMARY STEPS
- Install source
      install add source ftp://user@server:/package_path/asr9k-eigrp-x64-1.0.0.0-r702.x86_64.rpm
- show install request
- show install repository
- show install inactive
- Execute one of these:
     install activate asr9k-eigrp-x64-1.0.0.0-r702.x86_64.rpm
- show install active
- install commit

My question is :
- Do i miss something on the process?
- Is it intterupt traffic in the installation process or not?

install add source ftp://user@server:/package_path/asr9k-eigrp-x64-1.0.0.0-r702.x86_64.rpm

install activate <id> <<< this id will be from the 1st command

install commit << this will save once activated to allow packages to be persistent after a reload

Thanks for the advice @tkarnani 

i miss 1 step to install activate <id> from step number 1.

how about the interrupt? any interrupt expected?

[tkarnani · Accepted solution]

for eigrp there will be a process restart, it will not reload the router.

in general if a reload is required it will prompt you before the activation to continue
