    Order (ECO) for the Catalyst 4224 platform. Cisco IOS Release 12.1(5)YE3 is backward compatible with previous non-ECO hardware versions of the Catalyst 4224. Cisco recommends that you do not run software releases prior Cisco IOS Release 12.1(5)YE3 on the Note ECO hardware because serial WICs running in slot 1 might not operate correctly.
  • Page 6 Switch. If you do not tighten the screws properly, the VIC or WIC can malfunction. TDM Clocking The TDM clock reference on the Catalyst 4224 Access Gateway Switch can be derived from one of seven sources. Each VIC slot that contains an E1/T1 card has five free running on-board clock sources and two recovered clock sources.
  • Page 7 Catalyst 4224 as an H.323 gateway. You should check the MTP box on Cisco CallManager only if transcoding is required at the central site.

  • Page 10 Important Notes Design The Catalyst 4224 hardware is designed to support many IGMP groups and VLAN interfaces, as long as the multicast address count is <= 255 and/or IGMP snooping address count is <= 255. When the table limit is exceeded, no friendly message is displayed.
  • Page 11 Important Notes Configuring Fractional T1 PRI ISDN This release supports fractional T1 PRI ISDN on the following switch types: DMS-100 • 5ESS • NI-1 • To configure a fractional T1 for PRI ISDN, perform this procedure: Make sure the PRI VIC is configured last (after you configure all the VIC cards that require the DSP resources).
