What is a Feature Pack?

The heart of a Cisco IOS software feature pack is a CD-ROM that contains a software image and Router Software Loader (RSL), a Windows 95 application that loads the image onto the access server/router. Each Cisco IOS Release 11.2 feature pack CD contains one feature set. For users without Windows 95, images can also be loaded with a Trivial File Transfer Protocol server application, as explained in these release notes.

Each Cisco IOS Release 11.2 software feature pack box contains the following:

  • CD-ROM with the following software:

    • Feature set software image that includes bundled modem firmware

    • RSL program (Windows 95 application)

    • TFTP server application (Windows 95 application)

  • Instruction booklet for using RSL

  • Release notes (this document), which include instructions for using a TFTP server application on a system not running Windows 95

  • Software license—for using Cisco software in object code form on a single access server or router

  • Cisco Documentation CD-ROM, which contains all Cisco IOS software documentation

Cisco Feature Pack Description

This section describes the Cisco feature packs, listing the software feature sets comprising each feature pack. You can use this information to identify your feature pack set in conjunction with the corresponding information provided in Table 3 in the section "Cisco IOS Release 11.2 Feature Sets". Table 3 identifies which features are supported for a feature set on a specific platform.

Note RSL Version 6.0, contained in every Cisco IOS Release 11.2 software feature pack, supports Ethernet, Fast Ethernet, and Token Ring interfaces.

Software Feature Packs

This section includes two tables: Table 1, describes each feature pack image, including a brief description of each feature set, the UNIX and DOS filenames of the images, and the memory required to run each feature set on the Cisco AS5300 access server. Table 2 lists the memory delivered by default and the memory upgrades available.

You can use Table 1 to identify the memory required for your configuration based on the image you run. You can then check this against Table 2 to determine how much memory is available on the access server as the factory default and the upgrades that you can obtain to satisfy your requirements.

Modem Code Alert

Caution Your access server might contain modem code that needs to be saved before RSL erases the contents of Flash memory as part of the image load process.

Take the following steps to save the contents of Flash memory:

Step 1   Insert the Router Software Loader CD-ROM in your PC.

Step 2   Run the RSL application.

Step 3   At the first screen, cancel from the Connect Wizard.

Step 4   At the next screen, select the Settings menu and then the Options menu item. Make sure Always backup images(s) before erasing is selected, and specify a backup directory on your PC.

Step 5   Continue with the RSL application as described in the Getting Started with the Router Software Loader booklet.

Note Modem code can exist in Flash memory for a variety of reasons. One reason is the factory might have copied a version of modem code later than the one bundled with Cisco IOS software. Another reason is that, in a previously installed system, modem code might have been copied to Flash memory during another procedure, for example, the addition of a new modem module carrier card.

Because RSL erases data in the first Flash memory partition, we recommend that you prepare your access server for future software upgrades by creating two partitions. When you download new firmware or portware in the future, remember to copy it to the second partition.

The following steps provide an example of creating two Flash memory partitions:

Step 1   Enter configuration mode on your access server:

as5300> enable

Password: <password>
as5300# configure terminal

Enter configuration commands, one per line.  End with CNTL/Z.
 
as5300(config)#

Step 2   Enter the partition flash command at the configuration mode prompt. You can partition the system Flash into eight segments and divide the system Flash RAM into equal or unequal segments. In the following example, the system Flash is partitioned into two equal segments.

    as5300(config)#partition flash 2

Step 3   Return to enable mode.

    as5300(config)#Ctrl-Z

Step 4   Enter the show version command for verification of your changes:

    as5300#show version

Modem Code Information

Cisco IOS software controls the version of modem code (firmware and portware) used by modems on the 12- and 6-port modules. You can accept this firmware/portware version, or you can download another version of modem code. Unless you are familiar with Cisco AS5300 modem code, we recommend that you accept the default and not attempt to download another version.

Because you have the option of overriding the firmware and portware selected by Cisco IOS software, the following information provides some factors to consider before you manually download another version of modem code:

  • One firmware version (used by Microcom 12-port modules) and one portware version (used by MICA 6-port modules) is always bundled with the Cisco IOS image.

Note This feature pack contains Cisco IOS Release 11.2(10)P, which is bundled with Microcom firmware version 3.1.30 and MICA portware version 2.0.1.7.
  Other firmware/portware versions can exist in the access server's Flash memory. The last copy command determines which version of firmware or portware is mapped to the modems.
  • Versions of firmware and portware are posted to CCO as they become available. If you own a SMARTnet contract. you can download firmware from CCO and obtain the benefit of new features. For example, firmware version 3.2.10 contains support for V.FC, FAX, Lucent K56flex, and Point of Sale (PoS). Before downloading new modem code, be sure to read the firmware or portware release notes for a list of new features and outstanding bugs.

For detailed information about Microcom firmware download, refer to the "Modem Code" section in Installing 56K 12-Port Modem Modules in Cisco AS5300 Universal Access Servers. For general information about firmware and portware download, refer to the appendix "Managing Modems" in the Cisco AS5300 Access Server Software Configuration Guide.

Note All customer documentation is available on the Documentation CD shipped with your feature pack. In addition, the most current version of a document is available on the Web at http://www.cisco.com.

Installation Tips

This section describes several solutions to problems you might encounter when using RSL. These solutions are additions to the RSL online help.

Recovering from a Connection Error

This installation tip provides a possible recovery solution in the event that you are unable to connect to your access server or router. You can skip this section unless you are experiencing a connection error.

In some cases, you might receive the following error message while connecting to the target access server:

"Failed to configure the router to enable the Cisco IOS software image and configuration 
file upload and download operations. You may want to check the router to make sure that 
the selected interface exists."

If you encounter this message, try increasing the Short Timeout value, which is set to 25 seconds, in the Options dialog box, especially if one of the following situations applies:

Note Increasing the Short Timeout value may increase the time it takes for RSL to connect to the target access server.
  • You are connecting to an access server that has a large configuration file.

  • You are connecting to a Cisco AS5300 access server. A Cisco AS5300 requires up to 45 seconds to write a configuration to nonvolatile random-access memory (NVRAM), due to the amount of interfaces that must be checked during this process. Increase the Short Timeout value to 60 seconds.

Restoring the Startup Configuration

In some cases, RSL is unable to restore the startup configuration. If this happens, take the following steps:

Step 1   Ensure that all cables are properly attached to both the access server and the PC.

Step 2   Restart RSL and connect using the Preconfigured router option.

Step 3   When asked if you want to overwrite the existing startup configuration file, choose NO.

Step 4   When asked if you want to continue, choose YES.

Step 5   When connected, select Download Router Configuration in the Router Software Loader dialog box.

Step 6   Select the appropriate file, and click Copy configuration to the router's nonvolatile memory.

The access server should now contain the startup configuration it had before the initial RSL connection. You can now exit RSL.

Note In the previous situation, the access server's configuration register (config-register 0xnnnn) is not restored.
Note If you enter Ctrl-Alt-Delete to terminate RSL, the access server's configuration and configuration register are not restored. However, in this case the configuration file is not deleted from the PC, so it can be restored using the previous steps.

Helpful Hints

The following information about RSL operations can help you with the installation process:

  • If you have added any static entries to the PC's Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) table, one of them might be deleted by RSL. This entry will need to be manually reentered into the PC's ARP table.

  • If the access server's running configuration at connection time is not the same as the access server's startup configuration, the exact configuration will not be restored. Any changes that you have made since the last time a copy running-config startup-config or write memory command was entered will be lost.

  • RSL will restore the access server's running configuration, but some configuration commands will not be restored. However, the startup configuration will be correct. You can restore the exact running configuration by rebooting the access server. Commands not restored to the running configuration include the following interface configuration commands: no shutdown, no ringspeed, and media-type aui.
