Note Documentation for the Cisco 7000 series is available in two forms: on a CD-ROM called Cisco Connection Documentation, Enterprise Series and printed books. A CD and hard-copy installation documentation ship with each chassis, and a configuration note ships with each component ordered. All configuration notes are available on the CD. Additional CDs and a subscription CD update service are also available.

You can also access Cisco technical documentation on the World Wide Web URL http://www.cisco.com. For more information, see the chapter "Documentation" at the end of the catalog.


Product Overview

The Cisco 7000 series of multiprotocol routers includes the Cisco 7000 and the Cisco 7010. These routers combine Cisco Systems' proven software technology with exceptional reliability, availability, serviceability, and performance features to meet the requirements of today's most mission-critical internetworks. The Cisco 7000 series provides information system professionals with the flexibility they need to meet the constantly changing requirements at the core and distribution points of the internetwork. The Cisco 7000 series also provides a clear migration path to tomorrow's technologies.

Network interfaces reside on modular interface processors, which provide a direct connection between the high-speed Cisco Extended Bus (CxBus) and the external network. In a standard Cisco 7000 series router, route processing and switching are accomplished by the Route Processor (RP), Switch Processor (SP), and Silicon Switch Processor (SSP). In a Cisco 7000 series router upgraded to Cisco 7500 functionality, route processing and switching are accomplished by the 7000 Series Route Switch Processor (RSP7000)

The Cisco 7000 series runs the Cisco Internetwork Operating System (Cisco IOS) software, Cisco's industry-leading networking software. Cisco IOS software assures robust, reliable internetworks by supporting both LAN and WAN protocols, optimizing WAN services, and controlling internetwork access. In addition, Cisco IOS software allows centralized, integrated, and automated installation and management of internetworks.

The Cisco 7000 router provides five slots for interface processors; the Cisco 7010 router provides three slots for interface processors. Following are the interface processor types:

* Older versions of these boards may be eligible for the Investment Protection Program (IPP). See the chapter "Interface Processors for the Cisco 7000 Family."

**VIP2 requires an RSP7000.

The reliability, availability, and serviceability features of the Cisco 7000 series include the following:

Allows you to implement dual sources of prime power. Each supply has its own power cord, eliminating the risks associated with failure of uninterruptable power supply systems or building power.

fig_4.gif

Options for the Cisco 7000 series include processors, interface processors, serial cables, software features, software feature licenses, memory, a second power supply (Cisco 7000 only), and accessories.

If a product number ends with an equal sign (=), the item can be ordered only as a spare. If a product number does not end with an equal sign, the item can be ordered as a spare or as a configurable part of a system order.


Note For additional options that apply to most systems, refer to the chapters "Cables and Transceivers" or "Power Cords" in Part 7.


Processors

The standard system requires one Route Processor and one Switch Processor. An upgraded RSP7000 system requires one Route Switch Processor (RSP7000) and one chassis interface (RSP7000CI). Most processors can be ordered in three ways: as part of an initial system, as spares, or as upgrades. The product numbers are listed in Table 74.

4 For more information, see the section "Processor Upgrade Kit."
5 Cisco IOS Release 10.3(9), 11.0(6), 11.1(1) and later support the RSP7000.


Processor Upgrade Kit

Cisco offers the RSP7000, which is available as an upgrade kit for the installed base of Cisco 7000 and 7010 systems. The RSP7000 significantly increases the performance for most features and protocols and provides a migration path that enables Cisco 7000 and 7010 systems to take advantage of advanced VIP features.


Note Cisco IOS Release 10.3(9), 11.0(6), 11.1(1) and later support the RSP7000 upgrade.

The RSP7000 upgrade consists of the following:

  • Upgrade instructions (included in upgrade kit)

  • RSP7000 processor board shown in Figure 10 (included in upgrade kit)

  • RSP7000CI chassis interface board shown in Figure 11 (included in upgrade kit)

  • PCMCIA Flash memory card (8 MB is default if not specified)

  • Cisco 7500 RSP software licenses (must be ordered with upgrade kit)

These software licenses and boards replace existing Cisco 7000 software licenses, RP boards, and SP/SSP boards, all of which are returned to Cisco for a credit.

Figure 13 : Cisco 7010 with RSP7000 and RSP7000CI Installed

h5874.gif

The RSP7000 has the same interface processor compatibility requirements as the Cisco 7500 series router, or more specifically, the RSP1 and RSP2. To determine if your interface processor boards are compatible with the RSP7000, see "Verifying Interface Processor Compatibility" in the chapter "Configuration Guidelines for the Cisco 7000 Family." Cisco offers a program to upgrade noncompatible Cisco 7500 series interface processor boards. If needed, refer to "Investment Protection Program" in the chapter "Interface Processors and Port Adapters for the Cisco 7000 Family."


Note In Cisco 7000 routers, the RSP7000 must be installed in the SP (or SSP) slot, and the RSP7000CI must be installed in the RP slot.

When you order the upgrade kit, specify the following:

  • A Flash memory card (an 8-MB card is the default included with a kit, but 16-MB is included for some Cisco IOS Release 11.2 feature sets)

  • RSP DRAM (see the section "DRAM Guidelines" in the chapter, "Configuration Guidelines for the Cisco 7000 Family")

  • One of the Cisco 7500 feature sets listed in Table 68 in the chapter "Cisco 7500 Series."


Note You can order a Cisco 7000 series router with the upgrade kit installed at the factory. On your order, specify the RSP7000 and RSP7000CI instead of the default RP and SSP boards. In addition, you must order a Cisco 7500 software license.

The RSP7000 cannot be used in a Cisco 7500 series router, and the RSP1 or RSP2 cannot be used in a Cisco 7000 series router.


Flash Memory Cards

A Flash memory card allows you to download a software image into Flash memory, save backup software images, and copy files. Flash memory card options depend on the processor (RP or RSP7000) installed in your router.


RP Flash Memory Cards

The RP requires a PCMCIA Flash memory card for Cisco IOS Release 11.0 or later. The card allows you to download Release 11.0 into Flash memory, save backup software images, and copy files. Table 75 lists RP Flash memory card product numbers and descriptions.

Table 75 : Cisco 7000 Series RP Flash Memory Cards

Description Product Number
8-MB Flash memory card with sleeve (installed in system) MEM-RP-FLC8M
8-MB Flash memory card with sleeve (spare) MEM-RP-FLC8M=
16-MB Flash memory card with sleeve (installed in system) MEM-RP-FLC16M
16-MB Flash memory card with metal sleeve (spare) MEM-RP-FLC16M=

The Flash memory card inserts into the PCMICA slot on the RP board. The following purchase scenarios explain how to use the Cisco 7000 series router Flash memory card:

  • Ordering a new router with Cisco IOS Release 11.0 or later:

    • MEM-RP-FLC8M or MEM-RP-FLC16M

    • SW-G7-11.0 (software on ROMs in RP)

  • Upgrading an existing router to Cisco IOS Release 11.0 or later with a Flash memory card:

    • MEM-RP-FLC8M= or MEM-RP-FLC16M=

    • SWR-G7-11.0= (software ROMs---sold as spare or free for SMARTnet customers)

    • Note that in order to boot from the Flash memory card, you must update ROMs one time to Cisco IOS Release 11.0 or later

  • Upgrading an existing router to Cisco IOS Release 11.0 or later without a Flash memory card:

    • SWR-G7-11.0 (software ROMs---free for SMARTnet customers)

    • You will need to change ROMs every time you want a software upgrade to an image that exceeds 4-MB onboard Flash memory

    • Note that in order to boot from the Flash memory card, you must update ROMs one time for Cisco IOS Release 11.0 or later

  • Upgrading an existing router with Cisco IOS Release 11.0 software without PCMCIA Flash memory to Cisco IOS software with PCMCIA Flash memory. In this scenario, you buy Cisco IOS Release 11.0 and want to upgrade to Release 11.1 (you already have 11.0 ROMs, but do not have Flash memory).

    • MEM-RP-FLC8M= or MEM-RP-FLC16M=

    • Software on diskette (SW-G7-xxxx) or from a TFTP server


Note The Flash memory card for the RP is Intel Series 2+. This is the same Flash memory card used for the RSP7000, RSP1, and RSP2. The Flash memory card is interchangeable; however, the specific product numbers mentioned here must be used because the RP products include a special metal sleeve that is necessary for installing a Flash memory device in the RP. When using an RP-formatted Flash memory card in an RSP-based system, reformatting is required; for formatting instructions, refer to the documentation that ships with the Flash memory card.


RSP7000 Flash Memory Cards

In an RSP7000 system, Flash memory cards can be used to store and boot Cisco IOS images and/or system configurations. An RSP7000 system can also be used as a TFTP server, with the Flash memory used to store other files such as software and microcode images for other systems. Cisco recommends using one card for image storage, and another for configurations. The number of system images that can be stored on the card depends both on the Flash memory card size and the file size.

The RSP7000 Flash memory card is available in 8-, 16-, or 20-MB densities. The card is an Intel Series 2+ Flash memory card, which conforms with the PCMCIA format. The Flash memory card that is shipped with the RSP7000 contains a software image; the same Flash memory card that is ordered as a spare is shipped blank and must be formatted before use. Table 76 lists RSP7000 Flash memory card product numbers and descriptions.

Software Options

Cisco IOS software feature sets are available for Cisco 7000 series routers. With feature sets, you can order software combinations that support your particular application. Optional licenses expand the feature sets by providing WAN packet protocol and interdomain routing. To order, select one feature set (there is no default) and one or both of the optional feature licenses.

fig_6.gif

With the introduction of Cisco IOS Release 11.2, feature sets have been updated to make it easier to select the exact feature sets you need. Feature sets names are simplified and are more consistent across Cisco hardware platforms. In addition, you can add options to the standard feature set offerings. These options provide additional features and value based on the hardware platform selected. Cisco also continues to offer specialized feature sets for key applications.

The Cisco 7000 series offers the following type of feature sets:

  • Basic. The basic feature set for the Cisco 7000 series.

The new feature set tables use the following conventions to identify features:

  • X : the feature is offered in the basic feature set

  • -- : the feature is not offered in the feature set

Table 84 lists the Cisco IOS Release 11.2, 11.1, and 11.0 feature sets; Table 85 lists feature set product numbers; Table 86 lists feature set licenses; and Table 87 lists feature set upgrade product numbers.

You can still order earlier Cisco IOS software releases that are available as software feature sets. Unless you specify otherwise, you will receive the default software version.


Note In some configurations, Cisco IOS Release 11.2, 11.1 and 11.0 require additional memory. For more information, see the section "DRAM Guidelines" in the chapter "Configuration Guidelines for the Cisco 7000 Family."

Cisco IOS Feature Set Upgrades

Cisco IOS software upgrades are easy to order for Cisco 7000 series routers. The following is an example:

fig_1.gif

You have a Cisco 7010 router with the RSP7000 option running the Cisco IOS Release 11.2 IP Routing (basic) feature set. You want to upgrade to the Cisco IOS Release 11.2 Enterprise feature set. To complete the upgrade, use the following guidelines:

  • If you subscribe to SMARTnet Maintenance, you need to do the following:

    • Order FR75-CA= (IP to Enterprise upgrade license, charged item)

    • Download the new software feature set from CCO

  • If you do not subscribe to SMARTnet Maintenance, you need do the following:

    • Order FR75-CA= (IP to Enterprise upgrade license, charged item)

    • Order SW75A-11.2.1= (Cisco IOS Enterprise software on diskette, charged item)

Cisco IOS Release 11.1 and 11.0 follow the same upgrade guidelines as described for Cisco IOS Release 11.2. Use the applicable product numbers listed in Table 87. Unless otherwise noted, these upgrades are available for Cisco IOS Release 11.2, 11.1 and 11.0.

A Cisco 7000 series router with an RSP7000 upgrade uses Cisco 7500 series software products, which are also listed in the previous chapter.
