Installing and Configuring Processor Modules
Software Release 9.17(8), RP board revision B0, and System Bootstrap Version 4.6(7.3) began
shipping as the default for Cisco 7000 series systems in March 1994.
RPs that shipped from the factory with Release 9.17(7) or earlier in ROM do not support 16 MB
SIMMs. To verify that your RP supports the larger SIMMs, issue the following commands:

5-34 Cisco 7010 Hardware Installation and Maintenance
Use the show version command to display the System Bootstrap Version.
7010# show version
GS Software (GS7), Version 9.17(8.1)
Copyright (c) 1986-1994 by cisco Systems, Inc.
Compiled Fri 04-Feb-94
System Bootstrap, Version 4.6(7.3)
If the display indicates that the System Bootstrap Version is an earlier version of 4.6 than
4.6(7.3), or an earlier version of 4.7 than 4.7(2.1), your RP will not support 16 MB SIMMs.
Contact a customer service representative for information about the RP upgrade.
Use the show diag slot command to display current hardware and diagnostic information about
the processor installed in the slot you specify. Because the RP always resides in the same (RP)
slot, specify slot 4 for a Cisco 7010 chassis. The third line of the display shows the current
hardware (HW) and board revisions. (Do not confuse the HW revision with the board revision;
you need only verify that the board revision is B0 or later.)
7010# show diag 4
Slot 4:
EEPROM format version 1
Route Processor, HW rev 1.1, board revision B0
Serial number: 00809933
If the display indicates that the RP board revision is earlier than B0, your RP will not support
16 MB SIMMs. Contact a service representative for information about the RP upgrade.
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:
— Customer Information Online (CIO). If you have a CIO account, you can access the list
remotely.
— Technical Assistance Center at 800 553-2447, 408 526-7209, or send an e-mail message
requesting the list of approved vendors to
— Customer Response Center at 800 553-6387, 408 526-7208, or send an e-mail message
requesting the list of approved vendors to
Although the SIMM specifications are defined in the manufacturers' part numbers, which are
included in the list of approved vendors, the SIMMs must meet the following requirements:
— SIMMs must be obtained from an approved vendor.
— SIMMs must be the nine-module type, 16 MB x 9.
— Minimum speed is 70 ns.
— Maximum height of one inch.
All four SIMM sockets must be filled, and all must contain SIMMs of the same capacity and
speed. The RP supports only 4 MB x 9 SIMMs (for a total of 16 MB) or 16 MB x 9 SIMMs (for
a total of 64 MB). The RP does not support 32MB of DRAM because 8MB x 9 SIMMs are not
available.
