Hi team,

I am working on a requirement for Cisco ASR-9010 for a metro deployment,
but I am unable to find relevant references for it:


   1. How many 'I/O slots' does ASR-9010 have? 8 or 10?
   2. Are RSP slots combo slots (can they be used to host I/O cards)?
   3. Does -L linecard (out of -L, -B and -E) support H-QoS (Hierarchical
   QoS)? Cisco documentation is not clear
   4. What is the difference between RSP440-SE and RSP440-TR?
      1. Do both provide a fabric throughput to each line-card at 440Gbps
      now?
      2. What is the actual throughput of these RSP440-SE/TR per line-card?
   5. What is the throughput of A9K-RSP-4G/8G per line-card?
   6. A9K-4T or A9K-8T provide 4/8 x 10GE ports at line-rate respectively?
   7. A9K-8T/4 provides only 4 x 10GE ports at line-rate? (Uses
   over-subscription)?
   8. Do the above 10GE line-cards support DWDM-XFP-C= on each of the 10G
   ports? (I need tunable DWDM XFP)
   9. Do I need a license per line-card for (A9K-AIP-LIC-B) for full-scale
   L3VPNs?
      1. Is there a chassis-wide license?
   10. Does Cisco support L2VPN Draft-kompella on IOS-XR now?

CRS questions:

   1. Does CRS-1 (or CRS-3) 4-slot support Multi-chassis configuration?
   2. Does CRS-1 (or CRS-3) 8-slot support Multi-chassis configuration?
   3. Or is multi-chassis just limited to CRS-1 (or CRS-3) 16-slot chassis
   configurations only?
   4. Can I combine 4/8/16 slot configurations in a CRS-1 or CRS-3
   multi-chassis configurations?

I would appreciate if anyone can clarify this (ideally with Cisco's website
URLs)
