Questions & Answers
What is the Cisco ASR 1002-X 36 Gbps Paper PAK upgrade license?
The Cisco ASR 1002-X 36 Gbps Paper PAK upgrade license (SKU FLSA1-2X-5-36G=) is a physical certificate containing an activation code that increases your router’s licensed throughput from 5 Gbps to 36 Gbps.
How does the 5 Gbps to 36 Gbps Paper PAK license upgrade work?
Upon purchase, you receive a Paper PAK with an activation code to register on Cisco’s licensing portal; once registered, your ASR 1002-X throughput limit is automatically increased to 36 Gbps.
Is this 36 Gbps upgrade compatible with existing ASR 1002-X hardware?
Yes, the Paper PAK upgrade is fully compatible with all Cisco ASR 1002-X routers running a supported IOS XE release.
What performance benefits does upgrading to 36 Gbps provide?
Upgrading to 36 Gbps unlocks higher forwarding capacity for demanding applications, reduces congestion and improves overall network responsiveness.
How do I activate the Paper PAK upgrade license?
Log in to the Cisco Product License Registration portal, enter the Paper PAK activation code, associate it with your device’s PID and serial number, and confirm to enable 36 Gbps throughput.
Do I need to reboot my ASR 1002-X after activating the license?
No reboot is required; throughput changes take effect immediately once the license is registered and bound to the device.
How long does it take to receive the Paper PAK after ordering?
Paper PAKs are typically shipped within 1–2 business days and arrive via standard courier within 3–5 business days, depending on your region.
Can I convert my Paper PAK license to an electronic Smart License?
Yes, after registering your Paper PAK you can migrate it to Cisco Smart Licensing by linking your Smart Account and using the Smart Software Manager to entitle the device.
Is the 36 Gbps upgrade license perpetual or subscription-based?
The Paper PAK upgrade is a perpetual license with no recurring fees, entitling the device to 36 Gbps capacity for the life of the hardware.
What support options are available for this license upgrade?
Cisco TAC provides full technical assistance for license registration, activation troubleshooting and feature verification at no additional charge under your existing support contract.
Are there any software prerequisites for applying the 36 Gbps license?
Ensure your ASR 1002-X is running IOS XE 16.6.7 or later and that the device serial number matches the one entered during license registration.
Will upgrading to 36 Gbps affect my existing QoS or feature sets?
No, all existing QoS, security and routing features remain unchanged; the upgrade solely increases your maximum forwarding throughput.
Can I revert my ASR 1002-X back to 5 Gbps if needed?
Cisco does not support automatic downgrades; to revert, you must contact Cisco TAC for a revised entitlement or purchase a lower-capacity license.
What is the return policy for the Paper PAK upgrade license?
Paper PAK licenses may be returned within 30 days if unused; once the activation code is issued or registered, standard return policies no longer apply.
How do I verify that my router is now running at 36 Gbps?
Use the CLI command 'show platform hardware throughput level' on your ASR 1002-X; the output will display 'Licensed Throughput: 36 Gbps' upon successful activation.
