Product Overview

The Cisco 7200 series routers provide routing and bridging for a wide variety of protocols and network media and include the Cisco 7206 and the Cisco 7204. Network interfaces reside on port adapters that provide a connection between the router's Peripheral Component Interconnect (PCI) buses and external networks.

The Cisco 7200 series combines 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 7200 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 7200 series runs the industry-leading networking software, Cisco Internetwork Operating System (Cisco IOS) 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 7200 series offers software feature sets and feature licenses, which allows you to select the package that best meets your needs. You can select from four feature sets, one of which is required. The feature sets can be enhanced with additional feature licenses, which are required to use specific features with subsets. If requirements change in the future, you can upgrade to a higher level feature set and add another feature license.

The Cisco 7204 contains four slots for port adapters and two slots for Personal Computer Memory Card International Association (PCMCIA) Flash memory cards.

The Cisco 7206 contains six slots for port adapters and two slots for PCMCIA Flash memory cards. The port adapter/service adapter types follow:

The Cisco 7200 series routers also contain a slot for an input/output (I/O) controller. The I/O controller can be purchased with or without Fast Ethernet support. The Fast Ethernet input/output controller includes an MII connector.

The reliability, availability, and serviceability features of the Cisco 7200 series include the following:

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

Input/output controller (spare)1 C7200-I/O=

1 The C7200-I/O is an input/output controller without a FastEthernet port.


Flash Memory Cards

Flash memory cards can be used to store and boot Cisco IOS images and/or system configurations. A Cisco 7200 series router can also be used as a TFTP server, with the Flash card 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 card size and the file size.

The 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 system 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 95 provides a description of each Cisco 7200 series Flash memory card along with its corresponding product number.

Software Options

This section describes Cisco IOS software feature sets for the Cisco 7200 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, interdomain routing, and NetFlow switching software. To order, select one feature set (there is no default) and order as many of the optional feature licenses as needed.

fig_4.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 7200 series offers the following type of feature sets:

  • Basic. The basic feature set for the Cisco 7500 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 101 lists the Cisco IOS Release 11.2 and 11.1 (as of Release 11.1.6) feature sets. Table 102 lists the software product numbers, Table 103 lists optional feature set licenses and their product numbers, and Table 104 lists feature set upgrade product numbers.
