Memory Recommendations
Tables 1 and 2 show the memory recommendations for the Cisco 4000 series.
Note
Because the Cisco 4000 and Cisco 4000-M routers are not supported in this release, they do not appear in the Memory Recommendations tables.

Feature Set Tables
Cisco IOS software is packaged into feature sets consisting of software images—depending on the platform. Each feature set contains a specific set of Cisco IOS features. Table 3 shows the feature set matrix for the Cisco 4000 series.
CautionCisco IOS images with strong encryption (including, but not limited to, 168-bit [3DES] data encryption feature sets) are subject to United States government export controls and have limited distribution. Strong encryption images to be installed outside the United States are likely to require an export license. Customer orders can be denied or subject to delay due to Unites States government regulations. When applicable, obtain local import and use authorizations for all encryption strengths. Contact your sales representative or distributor for more information, or send e-mail to export@cisco.com.
Table 4 Table 4 lists the features and feature sets supported by the Cisco 4000 series in Cisco IOS Release 11.2 P and uses the following conventions:
•
No—This feature is not offered in the feature set.
•
Basic—This feature is offered in the basic feature set.
•
Plus—This feature is offered in the Plus feature set.
•
Encrypt—This feature is offered in the encryption feature sets, which consist of 40-bit (Plus 40) or 56-bit (Plus 56) data encryption feature sets.
Note
This table might not be cumulative or list all the features in each image. You can find the most current Cisco IOS documentation on Cisco.com. These electronic documents can contain updates and modifications made after the hardcopy documents were printed. If you have a Cisco.com login account, you can find image and release information regarding features prior to Cisco IOS Release 11.2(26)P by using the Feature Navigator tool at: http://www.cisco.com/go/fn.

1 This feature set has no additional options. It offers a low-end APPN solution for this set of hardware platforms. This feature set is not available for AccessPro PC cards.
2 Enterprise is available with APPN in a separate feature set. APPN includes APPN Central Registration (CRR) and APPN over DLSw+. APPN is not available on the AccessPro PC Card.
3 This feature includes AppleTalk load balancing.
4 IRB supports IP, IPX, and AppleTalk; it is supported for transparent bridging, but not for SRB; it is supported on all media-type interfaces except X.25 and ISDN bridged interfaces; and IRB and concurrent routing and bridging (CRB) cannot operate at the same time.
5 The Novell IPX feature includes display SAP by name, IPX Access Control List violation logging, and plain-English IPX access lists.
6 Translational bridging is fast switched by default but can be disabled.
7 Note that the only IPX encapsulation supported in ISL is 802.3.
8 ATM LAN emulation for Banyan VINES is only supported in Enterprise. The Desktop feature set supports DECnet only.
9 ISDN support includes calling line identification (ANI), X.25 over the B channel, ISDN subaddressing, and applicable WAN optimization features.
10 PPP includes support for LAN protocols supported by the feature set, address negotiation, PAP and CHAP authentication, Multilink PPP, and PPP compression.
11 X.25 includes X.25 switching.
12 IPX header compression (RFC 1553) is available in the feature sets that support IPX.
13 BGP4 includes soft configuration, multipath support, and prefix filtering with inbound route maps.
14 RED and RSVP are supported in IP/IPX/IBM/APPN for the Cisco 4000, 4500, and 4700 only.
15 The RMON events and alarms groups are supported on all interfaces. Full RMON support is available with the Plus feature sets.
16 MAC security for hubs is applicable to the following Cisco 2500 series Ethernet hub models: Cisco 2505, 2507, 2516, and 2518.
17 For more details, see the description of the new data encryption options in the section "Cisco IOS Packaging" in the Release Notes for Cisco IOS
Release 11.2. (See the "Related Documentation" section for information on accessing the related release notes.)18 TACACS+ Single Connection and TACACS+ SENDAUTH enhancements are supported.
19 Cisco IOS Release 11.2 introduces several DLSw+ enhancements available in the Plus, Plus 40, and Plus 56 feature sets.
20 SRB/RSRB is fast switched. This enhancement is on by default, but can be disabled.
21 This feature is supported on access servers (with limited support on router auxiliary ports).
22 The Cisco 4000, 4500, and 4700 products do not support ARAP 1.0/2.0.
23 Use of LAT requires terminal license (FR-L8-10.X= for an 8-user license or FR-L16-10.X= for a 16-user license).

Important Notes
Product Number Change
Beginning with Cisco IOS Release 12.0(7)XK, Cisco changed the product numbers you use to order a specific Cisco IOS software image. In short, Cisco will remove the periods separating the release train, maintenance release, and build number. The following table provides some examples.
Caveats
Caveats describe unexpected behavior in Cisco IOS software releases. Severity 1 caveats are the most serious caveats; severity 2 caveats are less serious. Severity 3 caveats are moderate caveats, and only select severity 3 caveats are included in the caveats document.
For information on caveats in Cisco IOS Release 11.2 P, refer to the Caveats for Cisco IOS Release 11.2 P located on Cisco.com and the Documentation CD-ROM.
All caveats in Cisco IOS Release 11.2 are also in Cisco IOS Release 11.2 P.
For information on caveats in Cisco IOS Release 11.2, refer to the "Caveats" section in the Cross-Platform Release Notes for Cisco IOS Release 11.2 on Cisco.com and the Documentation CD-ROM. These release notes list severity 1 and 2 caveats affecting all maintenance releases.
Note
If you have an account with Cisco.com, you can use Bug Navigator II to find caveats of any severity for any release. You can reach Bug Navigator II on Cisco.com at Software & Support: Online Technical Support: Software Bug Toolkit or at http://www.cisco.com/support/bugtools.

Feature Modules
Feature modules describe new features supported by Release 11.2 P and are updates to the Cisco IOS documentation set. A feature module consists of a brief overview of the feature, benefits, configuration tasks, and a command reference. As updates, feature modules are available online only. The feature module information is included in the next printing of the Cisco IOS documentation set.

Cisco IOS Software Documentation Set
The Cisco IOS software documentation set consists of the Cisco IOS configuration guides, Cisco IOS command references, and several other supporting documents, which are shipped with your order in electronic form on the Documentation CD-ROM—unless you specifically ordered the printed versions.
Documentation Modules
Each module in the Cisco IOS documentation set consists of two books: a configuration guide and a corresponding command reference. Chapters in a configuration guide describe protocols, configuration tasks, and Cisco IOS software functionality and contain comprehensive configuration examples. Chapters in a command reference provide complete command syntax information. Each configuration guide can be used with its corresponding command reference.
