Upgrading the Memory

IDS-4210, IDS-4210-K9, and IDS-4210-NFR must have 512 MB of RAM to support Cisco IPS 5.1. If
you are upgrading an existing IDS-4210, IDS-4210-K9, or IDS-4210-NFR to 5.1, you must insert one
additional 256-MB DIMM (part number IDS-4210-MEM-U) to upgrade the memory to the required 512
MB minimum.
Do not install an unsupported DIMM. Doing so nullifies the warranty.
Note
Follow proper safety procedures when performing these steps by reading the safety warnings in
