1 Traffic Analyzer does not require a Java plug-in although a plug-in might be required to use Java Virtual Machine (JVM). The Java plug-in versions listed have been tested for browsers that require a plug-in for JVM.
2 If you are running a 12.1(13)E-based release, Cisco recommends a later 13E release such as 12.1(13)E11 over 12.1(13)E3.
3 Supervisor 1A with MSFC1 or MSFC2, Supervisor 2 with MSFC2 only.
4 If you are using a 12.1(13)E-based release, we recommend that you use a later 13E release, for example, Release 12.1(13)E11 over 12.1(13)E3.
