Core routing features are available for use without any license. The following features can be enabled on your
router using licenses:
Layer 3 VPN
Layer 3 (virtual private network) VPN can be configured only if there is an available Layer 3 VPN
license for the line card slot on which the feature is being configured. If the advanced IP license is
enabled, 4096 Layer 3 VPN routing and forwarding instances (VRFs) can be configured on a line card.
If the infrastructure VRF license is enabled, eight Layer 3 VRFs can be configured on the line card.
To activate the Infrastructure VRF license, you need to configure two interfaces or sub-interfaces in
separate VRFs, with at least one physical interface in each of the VRFs.
The key is to have multiple (two or more) user-defined VRFs configured in at least one slot and at least
one physical interface in each user-defined VRF; and repeated for each slot.
In a non-consumption model line card, configuring a physical interface in multiple VRFs would consume
a L3VPN license. However, configuring other virtual interfaces (such as management, bundle, or BVI
interfaces) in multiple VRFs would not consume L3VPN license.
See the following modules in Cisco ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services Router MPLS Configuration
Guide for information about Layer 3 VPN configurations:

line cards:
•
2-port 10 Gigabit Ethernet / 20-port Gigabit Ethernet line card
•
8-port 10 Gigabit Ethernet line card
•
24-port 10 Gigabit Ethernet line card
•
36-port 10 Gigabit Ethernet line card
•
4-port 10 Gigabit Ethernet modular port adapter
•
