Determining the Software Version
To determine the version of Cisco IOS software running on your Cisco router, log in to the router and enter the show version EXEC command. The following sample displays command output from a Cisco 806 router running Release 12.2(2)XK3:
Router> show versionCisco Internetwork Operating System SoftwareIOS (tm) 12.2 Software (c806-y6-mz), Version 12.2(2)XK3, RELEASE SOFTWAREUpgrading to a New Software Release
For general information about upgrading to a new software release, see Software Installation and Upgrade Procedures located at: http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/130/upgrade_index.shtml.
Feature Set Tables
The Cisco IOS software is packaged in feature sets consisting of software images—depending on the platform. Each feature set contains a specific set of Cisco IOS features. Release 12.2(2)XK3 supports the same feature sets as Releases 12.2 T, but Release 12.2(2)XK3 can include new features supported by the SOHO 70 Series Routers and Cisco 800 Series Routers.
Table 9 through Table 14 list the features and feature sets supported in Cisco IOS Release 12.2(2)XK3:
•Table 9—SOHO 77 routers
•Table 10—SOHO 78 routers
•Table 11—Cisco 806 routers
•Table 12—Cisco 826 routers
•Table 13—Cisco 827 routers
•Table 14—Cisco 828 routers
The tables use the following conventions:
•Yes—The feature is supported in the software image.
•No—The feature is not supported in the software image.
•In—The number in the "In" column indicates the Cisco IOS release in which the feature was introduced. For example, "12.2(2)XK" means the feature was introduced in Release 12.2(2)XK. If a cell in this column is empty, the feature was included in the initial base release.
Note These feature set tables only contain a selected list of features. These tables are not cumulative—nor do they list all the features in each image.
New and Changed Information
The following sections list the new software features supported by routers for Release 12.2(2)XK and above:
New Features in Release 12.2(2)XK
The following sections list the new software features supported by Cisco IOS Release 12.2(2)XK3 on the and the Cisco 800 Series Routers.
•ATM OAM F5 Segment Continuity Check
•IP Control Protocol Subnet Mask Delivery
•IP Security Through Network Address Translation Support
•NAT Default Inside Server Enhancement
•VoDSL ATM AAL2 Profile 9 Support
ATM OAM F5 Segment Continuity Check
If a communication problem occurs on a permanent virtual circuit (PVC) that causes no traffic to travel in either direction, the PVC remains UP on the end-devices. Routing entries pointing to that PVC remain in the routing table for a certain time, which results in lost packets. Operation Administration and Maintenance (OAM) is one solution to detect this type of failure. An ATM OAM F5 segment continuity check (CC) cell, now supported by Cisco IOS Release 12.2(2)XK3, is another type of OAM cell to detect such failures.
Committed Access Rate
Release 12.2(2)XK3 supports committed access rate (CAR) on Cisco 828 routers, to limit bandwidth transmission rates to traffic sources and destinations. The CAR feature also specifies policies for handling traffic that breaches the specified bandwidth allocations. To enable CAR, enter the command rate-limit in ATM-interface-configuration mode. Additional feature configuration instructions and examples are available in the Software Enhancements for the Cisco 800 Routers and SOHO Routers publication.
DHCP Server Import
Prior to Release 12.1(5), DHCP options on the IOS DHCP server could only be configured through the command-line interface (CLI). You can now configure the same DHCP options on multiple DHCP servers by configuring one remote master DHCP server located on the corporate backbone. Using this capability causes all local DHCP servers to have the same DHCP options as those on the remote DHCP server.
To enable this feature, the Cisco IOS DHCP server allows configuration information to be updated automatically by PPP. You can enable PPP to automatically configure the Domain Name Server (DNS), the Windows Information Name Server (WINS), or the NetBIOS Name Service (NBNS), and the server IP address information within a Cisco IOS DHCP server pool. For instructions on configuring DHCP server import and configuration examples, see the document Software Enhancements for the Cisco 800 Routers and SOHO Routers.
IP Control Protocol Subnet Mask Delivery
The IP Control Protocol (IPCP) feature assigns IP address pools to customer premises equipment (CPE) devices. These devices then assign IP addresses to the CPE and to a DHCP pool.
The IPCP feature provides the following functions:
•The IOS CPE device requests and uses the subnet.
•The Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting (AAA) Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service (RADIUS) provides the subnet and inserts the framed route into the proper virtual route forwarding (VRF) table.
•The provider edge or the edge router helps in providing the subnet through IPCP.
DHCP support is no longer on the client side because the CPE can now receive both the IP address and the subnet mask during the PPP setup negotiation. If the CPE uses the DHCP servers to allocate addresses for its own network, subnets can be assigned through the node route processor (NRP) on the network access server (NAS) and distributed to the remote CPE DHCP servers. For instructions on configuring IPCP subnet mask delivery and configuration examples, see the document Software Enhancements for the Cisco 800 Routers and SOHO Routers.
IP Security Through Network Address Translation Support
Cisco IOS network address translation (NAT) supports IP Security (IPSec) client software that does not use Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) wrapping or User Datagram Protocol (UDP) wrapping. On Cisco routers, this feature allows the simultaneous use of multiple, PC-based IPSec clients on which IPSec packet wrapping is disabled or is not supported. When PCs connected to the router create an IPSec tunnel, NAT on the router translates the private IP addresses in these packets to public IP addresses. This NAT feature also supports multiple Point-to-Point Tunnel Protocol (PPTP) sessions, which may be initiated by PCs with PPTP client software.
NAT Default Inside Server Enhancement
NAT syntax has been extended to allow you to specify an inside local address to receive packets that do not match criteria in other NAT statements in the configuration. Prior to Cisco IOS Release 12.2(2)XK, if a received packet did not match the criteria in any of the NAT statements in the configuration file, address translation did not occur, and the packet was dropped. The new syntax allows you to specify a default address to which all packets not matching other NAT criteria can be routed.
RADIUS Support
Cisco IOS release 12.2(2)XK supports the RADIUS feature for remote dial-in user authentication. For instructions on configuring RADIUS, refer to the Cisco 806 Router Software Configuration Guide, and to the Cisco IOS Security Configuration Guide.
VoDSL ATM AAL2 Profile 9 Support
Release 12.2(2)XK3 supports voice over a digital subscriber line (ADSL) using the ATM Adaptation Layer 2 (VOAAL2) and ATM Forum profile 9. ATM Forum Profile 9 supports a 44-byte payload, which optimizes voice transport efficiency, and makes interoperability with TDSoft gateways possible.
This feature enables the Cisco routers to operate with GR.303 and V5.2 gateways and communicate with Class 5 switches. The voice PVC is routed to a VoAAL2 gateway that supports either the General Recommendation 303 (GR.303) or the V5.2 protocol. This gateway converts the AAL2-encoded voice cells to a format that can be sent over a time division multiplexed connection to a Class 5 switch. The data PVC can be routed through the DSLAM or aggregator to the data network.

Important Notes
The following sections contain important notes about Cisco IOS Release 12.2(2)XK3 that can apply to SOHO 70 and Cisco 800 series routers. (Also, see the "Caveats" section.)
Upgrading the ROMMON Image
Use one of the following two procedures to update the ROMMON image for Cisco 827-4V routers. For a description of when to update the ROMMON image, see the description of caveat CSCdv34472 in the "Caveats" section.
Updating in ROMMON Mode
Complete the steps below to upgrade the ROMMON image in ROMMON mode.
Step 1 Download the ROMMON image from CCO and place it on your TFTP server.
Step 2 Place your Cisco 827-4V router in ROMMON mode by sending the telnet command break during a router reboot sequence. The following prompt is displayed when the router is in ROMMON mode:
rommon 1 >Step 3 Set the following parameters.
rommon 1 > IP_ADDRESS=ip_address rommon 1 > IP_SUBNET_MASK=ip_subnet_mask rommon 1 > DEFAULT_GATEWAY=default_gateway rommon 1 > TFTP_SERVER=TFTP_server rommon 1 > TFTP_FILE=TFTP_file rommon 1 >The parameters above have the following meanings:
Step 4 Verify parameter settings using the command set. Correct any errors by reentering the parameters and their values. For example:
rommon> set
TFTP_CHECKSUM=0IP_SUBNET_MASK=255.255.255.0DEFAULT_GATEWAY=1.6.0.1TFTP_SERVER=223.255.254.254IP_ADDRESS=1.6.97.20TFTP_FILE=/auto/tftpload/ROMMON/C820_RM_ALT.srec.122-1r.XE2Step 5 Upgrade the ROMMON image using the command tftpdnld -u.
Note You might be prompted to reset the router in ROMMON mode by entering the command reset. If you receive this prompt, reset the router before again performing Step 1 through Step 5, above.
rommon >tftpdnld -u
IP_ADDRESS: 1.6.97.20IP_SUBNET_MASK: 255.255.255.0DEFAULT_GATEWAY: 1.6.0.1TFTP_SERVER: 223.255.254.254FTP_FILE: /auto/tftpload/ROMMON/C820_RM_ALT.srec.122-1r.XE2WARNING: alternate copy of rommon exists, filename: C820_RM_ALT.srec all existing data in the alternate copy of rommon will be lost.Do you wish to continue? y/n: [n]:Step 6 Enter y to start the download. Successive exclamation points (!!!!!!) indicate the download is occurring. The router reboots when the download is complete.
Updating in IOS EXEC Mode
Step 1 Download the ROMMON image from CCO and place it on your TFTP server.
Step 2 In EXEC mode, save the current configuration using the command copy running-config startup-config.
Step 3 Enter the command copy tftp: rommon:, and answer the prompts. Replace the variables shown in the following example with the correct values for your facility:
820-2#copy tftp: rommon:
Address or name of remote host []? IP_address_of_remote_hostSource filename []? rommon_image_source_file_nameDestination filename [rommon]? rommon_image_destination_file_nameSuccessive exclamation points (!!!!!!) indicate the download is occurring. The router reboots when the download is complete.
Configuring PPPoE on a Cisco 806 Router
When specifying the method of authentication while configuring PPPoE and connecting to a Service Provider, the optional argument might be required to successfully authenticate the connection. For example:
interface Dialer0ppp authentication pap optionalor
interface Dialer0ppp authentication chap optionalCaveats
Caveats describe unexpected behavior in Cisco IOS software releases. Severity 1 caveats are the most serious caveats, severity 2 caveats are less serious, and severity 3 caveats are the least serious of these three severity levels.
Caveats in Cisco IOS Releases 12.2 and 12.2 T are also in Cisco IOS Release 12.2(2)XK3. For information on caveats in Cisco IOS Release 12.2, see Caveats for Cisco IOS Release 12.2. For information on caveats in Cisco IOS Release 12.2 T, see Caveats for Cisco IOS Release 12.2 T. These two documents list severity 1 and 2 caveats and are located on CCO and the Documentation CD-ROM.

Resolved Caveats—Releases 12.2(2)XK2 and 12.2(2)XK3
This section describes unexpected behavior that is fixed in Releases 12.2(2)XK2 and 12.2(2)XK3.
Management
CSCdw65903
An error can occur with management protocol processing. Please use the following URL for further information:
http://www.cisco.com/cgi-bin/bugtool/onebug.pl?bugid=CSCdw65903
Resolved Caveats—Release 12.2(2)XK1
Cisco IOS Release 12.2(2)XK1 is a rebuild release for Cisco IOS Release 12.2(2)XK. The caveats in this section are resolved in Cisco IOS Release 12.2(2)XK1 but might be open in previous Cisco IOS releases.
Miscellaneous
CSCdv62649
The command ip tacacs source-interface does not work correctly. If a router is configured to use "loopback interface" for TACACS packets, the router might still use "interface address".
CSCdu62677
The command ip addr dhcp hostname is now disabled.
Open Caveats—Release 12.2(2)XK
This section describes possibly unexpected behavior by Release 12.2(2)XK. Only severity 1 through 3 caveats are included.
Miscellaneous
CSCdt55603
The object cikeTunRemoteName is always an IP address regardless whether the peers have the isakmp key as a name peer or ipaddress peer. This caveat is a duplicate to caveat CSCds04437.
CSCdt93933
Cisco routers return a zero-length string when queried for the SNMP object isdnBearerPeerAddress, instead of the actual value. The command show call active voice bried displays the PeerAddress value.
CSCdt93965
Not able to create new rows in isdnSignalingTable. This caveat is a duplicate to caveat CSCdp57230.
CSCdu52623
When X.25 encapulation is directly configured under the D channel on a Cisco 800 series router, at power up Layer 2 does not come up, even when isdn tei-negotiation powerup is set. To work around this problem, either enter the command no shut or a clear int bri 0 to bring up interface or use X.25 encapsulation under a dialer interface.
CSCdu55044
The CISCO-VOICE-DIAL-CONTROL-MIB object cvCallActiveCallerIDBlock returns incorrect values.
CSCdu55062
The object cvCallActiveSessionTarget returns incorrect values.
CSCdu55195
DS1 failure on repetitive patterns.
CSCdu55959
Cisco 800 series routers do not boot with TinyROM 1.4(1) or burned-in versions 1.2(0) or 1.0(3). One workaround is to upgrade to TinyROM burned-in version 1.2(2). Other TinyROM versions have not been tested.
CSCdu56183
The CISCO-VOICE-DIAL-CONTROL-MIB values cannot be set through SNMP for the object cvVoIPPeerCfgFaxBytes.
CSCdu56201
Setting the CISCO-VOICE-DIAL-CONTROL-MIB object cvVoIPPeerCfgDigitRelay results in an error.
CSCdu73718
The following IPSec MIB variables return incorrect values: cikeGlobalOutNotifys, cikeTunOutNotifys, cikeTunHistOutNotifys, cikeGlobalOutP2SaDelRequests, cikeTunOutP2SaDelRequests and cikeTunHistOutP2SaDelRequests.
CSCdu74709
The objects cikeGlobal[In/Out]P2Exchgs and cikeTun[In/Out]P2Exchgs return incorrect values.
CSCdu83902
The CISCO-IPSEC-MIB object cips3DesCapable returns incorrect values.
CSCdu89082
There is a very short delay while the command IP DHCP hostname becomes effective. If consecutive entries of the command ip address dhcp hostname are applied to an interface, the command show running config does not display the command ip add dhcp in a running configuration. The intention is to allow previous hostnames to be written over with later hostnames.
CSCdv00104
The CISCO-IPSEC-FLOW-MONITOR-MIB object cipSecTunHistTotalSas returns incorrect values. This caveat is a duplicate to caveat CSCds10702.
CSCdv01383
Packets are not dropped when partial encryption maps or empty dynamic access lists are applied during IPSec negotiation.
CSCdv01412
Voice loopback does not work.
CSCdv02381
The IPSEC-FLOWMONITOR-MIB objects cipSecTunLifeSize and cipSecTunLifeTime return incorrect values.
CSCdv02785
Some Caller-ID devices display the message "Number not available" with the calling number. For example, in Italy some Caller-ID devices display "NON disponibile", meaning "Number not available". This occurs when the name of a calling-party is not available. Therefore, this message means "No name", that is, the name of the calling side is not known. To associate a name with a given voice-port on the calling-side, configure the command station-id name station-name on the voice-port from which calls are made.
CSCdv03686
Caller-ID does not always display if calls on a voice port are received in quick succession and the "cptone" configured on the voice-port is Denmark(DK). To work around this problem, configure the voice-port with the command timing digit 70 whenever the cptone configured on a voice-port is Denmark.
CSCdv12488
Some packets are dropped due to cyclical redundancy check (CRC) errors.
CSCdv17664
The demandNbrName MIB object is not populated when initially queried. To work around this problem, use SNMP to set the variable.
CSCdv17679
The traps demandNbrCallDetails and demandNbrCNANotification are not sent when ISDN calls are made on the Voice NT or TE BRI interfaces.
CSCdv17691
Cisco routers unexpectedly reset when the object entLogical community is set to a longer string length than the range specified in the associated MIB file.
CSCdv20646
The objects entPhysicalVendorType and entPhysicalContainedIn return incorrect values.
CSCdv20689
The object entPhysicalTable returns empty strings as a result of some entries.
CSCdv22493
After a voice-capable Cisco router reloads, when a fractional T1 WIC is installed in Slot 0 and a BRI is installed in Slot 2, the FXS port in Slot 1 intermittently fails to come up. To work around this problem, reload the router again.
CSCdv23896
Under heavy traffic conditions using two parallel serial links, load balancing does not work correctly; the serial Slot and Port 0/0 drops noticeably more packets than the other serial interface.
CSCdv24610
Cisco routers unexpectedly reset if the command service-policy {input | output} policy-map-name is configured for a permanent virtual circuit (PVC) or virtual-template interface.
CSCdv27169
When voice calls are in progress between local voice ports (such as Port 1 calling Port 2), and the command ping executes, voice quality degrades on those internal calls. This occurs when the DSLAM profile is set to 192 kbps both upstream and downstream; and no PVC data rate limiting is set. To correctly limit the bandwidth allocated to the data PVC, rate-limit the PV when using UBR. Rate limiting is not set by default, therefore, if no rate limiting is set for the PVC, the traffic from the PVC take away all the available bandwidth, at the cost of all other rate-limited traffic.
CSCdv32198
On SOHO 70 and Cisco 800 series routers, AAL2 calls clear before a reanswer timeout. To work around this problem, configure the reanswer timer to 5 seconds instead of 15 seconds, or provision the DSL line to use fast path instead of interleaved path.
CSCdv34472
Cisco 827-4V routers shipped before the distribution of Release 12.2(2)XK3 contain a ROMMON image that does not support the VoAAL2 Profile 9 feature. Therefore, to ensure proper router VoAAL2 Profile 9 functionality and avoid rendering a Cisco 827-4V router inoperable, upgrade the ROMMON image to "C820_RM_ALT.srec.122-1r.XE2" before downloading Release 12.2(2)XK3 and above. This ROMMON image is backwards compatible with all previously-released Cisco 827-4V software images.
Caution Cisco 827-4V routers do not properly operate and enter into an unrecoverable state if you attempt to load Release 12.2(2)XK3 without first upgrading the ROMMON image. This problem occurs even if AAL2 profile 9 parameters are not configured on the router.
This issue affects all Cisco 827-4V routers shipped before the availability of Release 12.2(2)XK3. Routers shipped after the distribution of Release 12.2(2)XK3 likely already contain a compatible ROMMON image. See "Upgrading the ROMMON Image" section for ROMMON image upgrade instructions.
CSCdv35467
When configuring the mtu 1500 for an ATM interface in a Cisco router, after the router reloads, the PVC associated with the ATM interface remains in the INAC state.
CSCdv37323
When a Cisco 827 router functions with a tdSoft VonGate (V5.2 gateway) for a VoAAL2 application, data packets are dropped even though the DSLAM has a speed profile of 640 kbs upstream and 8 MB downstream. This occurs when an ATM interface is not properly configured to allocate sufficient bandwidth to data packets while there are voice calls in progress. For proper bandwidth allocation and prioritization to voice and data, configure the command no atm cell-clumping-disable under the ATM interface.
CSCdv46730
The OAM F5 CC feature is not active after a router reload if OAM F5 loopback is configured and enabled. The workaround is to configure the OAM F5 CC feature only after a router has fully rebooted. If no OAM F5 loopback function is configured or enabled during a router reboot, the OAM F5 CC function activates as expected.
CSCdv48918
On a Cisco 827 router, when configuring the command compand-type A-law under a voice-port, voice quality degrades and becomes distorted. To work around this problem, note that the Cisco 827 router does not support configuring the compand-type under a voice-port; instead, configure the command type/compand-type under dial-peer.
