Release Notes for Analog Modem Firmware Version 1.0.3

December 21, 1998

These release notes document firmware version 1.0.3 for analog modem network modules for Cisco 2600 series and Cisco 3600 series routers. Use this document in conjunction with your router installation and configuration guide, the Cisco 2600 Series and 3600 Series Analog Modem Firmware Upgrade Configuration Note, the Network Module Hardware Installation Guide, the Software Configuration Guide, the Regulatory Compliance and Safety Information document for your router, and the Cisco IOS configuration guides and command references.

Cisco documentation and additional literature are available in a CD-ROM package, which ships with your product. The Documentation CD-ROM, a member of the Cisco Connection Family, is updated monthly. Therefore, it might be more current than printed documentation. To order additional copies of the Documentation CD-ROM, contact your local sales representative or call customer service. The CD-ROM package is available as a single package or as an annual subscription. You can also access Cisco documentation on the World Wide Web at http://www.cisco.com, http://www-china.cisco.com, or http://www-europe.cisco.com.

Overview

Modem firmware is downloaded to the modems at startup. A version of firmware is always bundled with the Cisco IOS image. A separate file can be stored in Flash memory to override this firmware with one that contains newer features. If the router finds more than one version of modem firmware at startup, it automatically loads the latest version.

The firmware version must be compatible with the Cisco IOS software release level, as shown in .
