Prerequisites
Compatibility Requirements
You must install the RSP1 in the top slot (slot 4) of the Cisco 7505. (See the section "What Is the
Cisco 7505?" on page 2.) You must obtain the replacement SIMMs from an approved vendor. To
ensure that you obtain the latest available product and vendor information, obtain the list from one
of the following sources:
•
•
•
Although the PCMCIA card and SIMM specifications are defined in the manufacturers' part
numbers, they must meet the following requirements:

Software Prerequisites
The RSP1 is compatible with Cisco IOS Release 10.3(3) or later. The show version and show
hardware commands display the current hardware configuration of the router, including the system
software version that is currently loaded and running. The show microcode command lists the
bundled microcode (target hardware) version for each processor type. The show controller cybus
or show controller cbus commands show the microcode version you are running. (For complete
descriptions of show commands, refer to the Configuration Fundamentals Configuration Guide and
Configuration Fundamentals Command Reference publications.)
You can determine the current version of software or microcode stored in ROM either by removing
the processor module and checking the ROM labels or by configuring the system to boot the system
software or microcode from ROM, reloading the system, and using show commands to check the
version that is loaded and running. Refer to the appropriate software documentation for complete
configuration instructions and examples.
Note
your system, contact a customer service representative for upgrade information. (Refer to the section
"Cisco Connection Online" at the end of this document.) Cisco IOS Release 11.1(1) might require
more than 16 MB of DRAM for your RSP1; refer to the section "Replacing and Upgrading DRAM
SIMMs" on page 24.
Microcode Prerequisites
Microcode is a set of processor-specific software instructions that enables and manages the features
and functions of a specific processor type. At system startup or reload, the system loads the
microcode for each processor type present in the system. The latest available microcode image for
each processor type is bundled and distributed with the system software image.
