对于ASR9k的split-horizon简单总结如下：

注：ASR9k不同于76，split-horizon不能disable；它一共分3组，group 0，1和2，每组的定义不一样。

• 默认所有AC都属于group 0，group 0比较特殊，其中的AC都可以互访
• 所有PW都属于group 1，group 1中的member不能互访，但能与group0或group 2互访
• 不论在AC还是PW上配置split-horizion后，都会属于group 2，group2中的member不能互访，但能与group0或group1互访

下面是Xander总结的（https://supportforums.cisco.com/thread/2213114 ）：

Three SHG groups are defined for VPLS(SHG0,SHG1 and SHG2). By default, all the 
bridge-ports( AC or PW ) come in SHG0. When a Split horizon-group is configured 
under the Bridge-port( either under AC or PW) they come in SHG2. 
PWs defined under VFI come in SHG1. 
By definition, Bridge-ports in same SHG(SHG1 and SHG2) won't talk to each 
other ( this is not applicable for SHG0 though ).

SHG0 --- > SHG0,SHG1 and SHG2
SHG1 --- > SHG0 and SHG2
SHG2 ----> SHG0 and SHG1

[对于XR的升级，就我现在所知的有以下几种，如果还有其他的方法，到时再更新]
1. Golden Disk升级
类似于Ghost系统，在现有XR设备（version A）上直接把整个系统文件backup到disk卡中，然后把这个disk卡放到要升级的机箱上（version B），指定boot位置并重启，就可以直接用新系统了（version A）。省了安装系统的时间。但由于需要指定boot路径，另外还需要copy MBI文件到bootflash，所以操作起来感觉不是非常方便。

2013-9-18 更新:
在2010-9-24 更新中的第3和第4小点中，已经总结了一些GoldenDisk的内容。这里再提一下，如果从老版本升级到新版本，如3.6.3到4.0.4，又需要用FAT32，那么一定要把MBI拷贝到bootflash，否则无法识别FAT32；另外还要记住升级前要升级rommona/b的版本，原因下面有解释。

在3.6.3上升级rommon的步骤如下：
1. 从官网下载较新的rommon tar文件
2. 拷贝到disk0中
3. 执行upgrade rommon a/b all disk0

如果客户安装了很多SMU，又不知道正确的MBI路径，那么可以在老系统中把默认的MBI路径拷贝到bootflash中，然后启动，设备会自动boot这个MBI，如果MBI不正确，它会自动把正确的MBI文件copy到bootflash中，然后重启并用新MBI启动，如下所示：

Install (Node Preparation): Booting with committed software
Install (Node Preparation): Checking free space on /bootflash/
Install (Node Preparation): Copying MBI from /disk0/hfr-os-mbi-4.0.4.CSCuc17728-1.0.0/mbihfr-rp.vm
Install (Node Preparation): Copying MBI to /bootflash/disk0/hfr-os-mbi-4.0.4.CSCuc17728-1.0.0/mbihfr-rp.vm
insthelper: This node was booted with an incorrect MBI (/bootflash/disk0/hfr-os-mbi-4.0.4/mbihfr-rp.vm), rebooting self with correct boot image (/bootflash/disk0/hfr-os-mbi-4.0.4.CSCuc17728-1.0.0/mbihfr-rp.vm).

2. Turboboot 升级
完全重新安装，在Rommon模式中download mini PIE文件，感觉像之前IOS环境下的启动新版本那样。只不过XR是要安装，而IOS直接调用。
3. 直接在原有系统上升级
打个比方说，在windows xp的基础上直接升级到windows 7，这样即使windows 7装完了，在新系统中仍然有老系统的东西。所以一般不推荐用这种方法。对于disk存储介质，最好只有1种操作系统，这样稳定些。

2013-11-29 更新：
在现有系统升级又分两种方式：
一种是直接安装PIE文件，如果你的版本是A，要升级B，那么直接active B的PIE即可，但要注意，A和B的PIE要保持一致才能安装，否则会有兼容，如下所示(注：现有系统升级后，配置是保留的)：

另一种方式是直接安装下载后的TAR文件，或者自己做的一个TAR文件，以后有机会抓着部分信息，在更新上去。

关于rommon的一些问题
CRS一共有两个rommon，rommon A和rommon B。平时启动都是rommon B，rommon A只做一些工厂检测用。[如果rommon A的版本不低于1.52（这是CRS的需求，9k的另需要确认），就不用升级rommon A。因为每次启动都会由rommon A 去disk卡中check一些信息，感觉像是rommon在加载一些命令集（monlib ?），使得如果rommonB不能启动，或是坏了，可以直接从rommon A启动进行检测。如果版本低于1.52，rommon A就会不识别fat32的disk，所以就停在那里无法继续进行加载rommon B，如果是fat16，就没有任何问题]
