System Software Overview System Software Overview In Cisco 7500 series routers, Flash memory on the RSP contains the default system software. An EPROM device on each interface processor contains the latest interface processor microcode version, in compressed form. At system startup, an internal system utility scans for compatibility problems between the installed interface processor types and the bundled microcode images, then decompresses the images into running memory (DRAM).

Cisco 7500 series router. Do not unpack the Cisco 7500 series router until you are ready to install it. Keep the chassis in the shipping container to prevent accidental damage until you have determined where you want it installed.
Page 80: Chapter 2 Preparing For Installation

Only trained and qualified personnel should be allowed to install, replace, or service this equipment. Warning Observe the following safety guidelines before installing a Cisco 7500 series router; they will help to ensure your safety and protect your equipment. This list is not inclusive of all potentially hazardous situations, so be alert.
Page 81: Chassis Lifting Guidelines

Warning Chassis Lifting Guidelines The Cisco 7500 series chassis are not intended to be moved frequently. Before you install the router, ensure that your site is properly prepared so you can avoid having to move the chassis later to accommodate power sources and network connections.

Page 265: Upgrading Or Replacing Dram Simms On The Rsp2

This chapter describes the procedures for upgrading or replacing dynamic random-access memory (DRAM) on each of the RSPs used in the Cisco 7500 series routers. The RSP2 uses DRAM single in-line memory modules (SIMMS), and the RSP4 and RSP8 use DRAM dual in-line memory modules (DIMMS).
Page 266: C H A P T E R 9 Replacing Dram On The Route Switch Processor

To prevent DRAM errors, each DRAM bank used must contain no fewer than two SIMMs of the same type. You must install either two SIMMs in bank 0 or four SIMMs in bank 0 and bank 1. Cisco 7500 Series Installation and Configuration Guide Chapter 9...

Page 269: Upgrading Or Replacing Dram Dimms On The Rsp4 And Rsp8

This section describes the procedures for replacing up to two dual in-line memory modules (DIMMs) on your RSP4 or RSP8. You obtain the DIMMs from Cisco Systems. The system DRAM resides in up to two DIMM sockets in two memory banks, 0 and 1. The DRAM DIMM sockets on the RSP4 are U10 (bank 0) and U13 (bank 1).
Page 270

To prevent memory problems, DRAM DIMMS must be 3.3V devices. Do not attempt to install Caution higher-voltage devices (such as those designed for the RSP2) in the RSP4 DIMM sockets. Cisco 7500 Series Installation and Configuration Guide Chapter 9 RSP4 DRAM DIMM Locations...
