Release Notes for the Catalyst 8510 and LightStream 1010 Switch for Cisco IOS Release 12.1(20)EB, Part 1: System Requirements

Note All information pertains to both the Catalyst 8510 and LightStream 1010 switch platforms, unless differences between the platforms are noted in the text.

This document includes the following sections:

Introduction

The Catalyst 8510 and LightStream 1010 switch provide switched ATM connections to individual workstations, servers, LAN segments, or other ATM switches and routers using fiber-optic, unshielded twisted-pair (UTP), and coaxial cable.

Note The ATM switch processors (hardware version 4.0 or higher) and all port adapters can be installed in the Catalyst 5500 switch chassis.

The Catalyst 8510 CSR belongs to a class of high-performance Layer 3 switch routers. It is optimized for the campus LAN or the intranet and provides both wirespeed Ethernet routing and switching services.

System Requirements

This section describes the system requirements for Cisco IOS Release 12.0 and includes the following sections:

Memory Requirements for Catalyst 8510 MSR and LightStream 1010

The DRAM memory configuration is 64-MB DRAM (MEM-ASP64M), which is the default for both the Catalyst 8510 and the LightStream 1010 switch platforms.

Memory Requirements for Catalyst 8510 CSR

Table 1 lists the default Flash and DRAM memory for the Catalyst 8510 CSR, as well as memory upgrade options.

Table 1 Catalyst 8510 CSR Default Memory and Upgrade Options

Memory Type	Catalyst 8510 CSR Defaults	Upgrade Options
Flash memory	16 MB	MEM-ASP-FLC16M= MEM-ASP-FLC20M=
DRAM	64 MB	None

To download and store a copy of the Catalyst 8510 CSR software image, we recommend using a minimum 20 MB Flash PC Card, which allows you to have two or more images installed at the same time.

The Catalyst 8510 CSR boots from its onboard Flash memory by default. To change this default to boot from a Flash PC Card instead, you must change the configuration register setting to 0x2102. Refer to the Layer 3 Switching Software Feature and Configuration Guide for more information.

Hardware Supported

Table 2 lists the interfaces supported by both the Catalyst 8510 MSR and LightStream 1010 switch and Cisco IOS Release 12.1(20)EB and their minimum software release requirements. All platform specific requirements are noted in the table. Table 2 lists this information for the Catalyst 8510 CSR.

Note Although minimum software versions are listed, we strongly recommend that you use the latest available software release for all Catalyst 8510 and LightStream 1010 hardware.

Determining Your Software Release

To determine the version of Cisco IOS software currently running on either the Catalyst 8510 or the LightStream 1010 switch, log in to the switch and enter the show version EXEC command. The following is sample output from the show version command. The version number is indicated on the second line as shown:

 Cisco Internetwork Operating System Software

 IOS (tm) LS1010 W5-5 Software (LS1010-WP-M), Version 12.1(20)EB

Additional command output lines include more information, such as processor revision numbers, memory amounts, hardware IDs, and partition information.

Other Firmware Code

Some of the port adapters supported on the Catalyst 8510 and LightStream 1010 switch have upgradeable FPGA and functional images. The FPGA and functional images include caveat fixes, but in most cases, it is not necessary to upgrade. The release notes that describe the caveats from the FPGA and functional images are available on the World Wide Web at the following URL:

http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/l3sw/8540/rel_12_0/w5_6f/rel_note/fpga_rn/ind ex.htm

For information describing the firmware update process, refer to the section "Maintaining Functional Images (Catalyst 8510 and LightStream 1010)" in the chapter "Managing Configuration Files, System Images, and Functional Images" in the ATM Switch Router Software Configuration Guide.

Caveats describe unexpected behavior or defects in Cisco IOS software releases. Caveats use a tracking number (DDTS No.) and the release number to maintain the database information. For a list of the caveats and their status for the Cisco IOS Release for the Catalyst 8510 and the LightStream 1010 switch see the document, Release Notes for the Catalyst 8510 and the LightStream 1010 Switch for Cisco IOS Release 12.1(20)EB, Part 2: Caveats.

Opening a TAC Case

Using the online TAC Case Open Tool is the fastest way to open P3 and P4 cases. (P3 and P4 cases are those in which your network is minimally impaired or for which you require product information.) After you describe your situation, the TAC Case Open Tool automatically recommends resources for an immediate solution. If your issue is not resolved using the recommended resources, your case will be assigned to a Cisco TAC engineer. The online TAC Case Open Tool is located at this URL:

http://www.cisco.com/tac/caseopen

For P1 or P2 cases (P1 and P2 cases are those in which your production network is down or severely degraded) or if you do not have Internet access, contact Cisco TAC by telephone. Cisco TAC engineers are assigned immediately to P1 and P2 cases to help keep your business operations running smoothly.

To open a case by telephone, use one of the following numbers:

Asia-Pacific: +61 2 8446 7411 (Australia: 1 800 805 227)

TAC Case Priority Definitions

To ensure that all cases are reported in a standard format, Cisco has established case priority definitions.

Priority 1 (P1)—Your network is "down" or there is a critical impact to your business operations. You and Cisco will commit all necessary resources around the clock to resolve the situation.

Priority 2 (P2)—Operation of an existing network is severely degraded, or significant aspects of your business operation are negatively affected by inadequate performance of Cisco products. You and Cisco will commit full-time resources during normal business hours to resolve the situation.

Priority 3 (P3)—Operational performance of your network is impaired, but most business operations remain functional. You and Cisco will commit resources during normal business hours to restore service to satisfactory levels.

Priority 4 (P4)—You require information or assistance with Cisco product capabilities, installation, or configuration. There is little or no effect on your business operations.
