Chapter 8 Preparation for Installation

Software and Hardware Requirements

If your router is mounted in a 4-post or telco-type rack, make sure you have at least one other person

available to assist you with removing the chassis from the rack.

Software and Hardware Requirements

The network processing engine and network services engine have different requirements for both

hardware and software. See the “NPE or NSE Requirements” section on page 8-2.

Note Cisco IOS Release 12.2 changed the behavior of the ROM monitor (ROMmon) during the bootup

sequence. See “Boot Changes in Cisco IOS Release 12.2” section on page 10-2 for more information.

NPE or NSE Requirements

When installing an NPE-175, NPE-225, NPE-300, NPE-400, NPE-G2, or NSE-1 in a Cisco 7200 VXR

router or Cisco uBR7246VXR router that is using a previously purchased I/O controller, you must

upgrade the I/O controller boot helper image. The Cisco uBR7225VXR router does not support port

adapters or I/O controllers.

Note Instructions for upgrading the boot helper image on the I/O controller are contained in the online

Memory Replacement Instructions for the Network Processing Engine or Network Services Engine and

Input/Output Controller publication.
