The following terms are used throughout this document:
The tables in these release notes contain details about the Cisco feature packs. Use these tables to perform the following tasks before loading a software image onto a router:
1. Use Table 1, "Cisco AS5200 and Cisco AS5300 Default Memory and Upgrade Options," for the feature set memory requirements, factory-default memory, and available memory upgrades for your access server.
2. Use Table 2 and Table 3, "Cisco AS5200 Feature Pack Product Numbers Quick-Reference List" and "Cisco AS5300 Feature Pack Product Numbers Quick-Reference List," to identify the software image you want to load.
3. Use Table 4 and Table 5, "Cisco AS5200 Feature Pack Images and Memory Requirements" and "Cisco AS5300 Feature Pack Images and Memory Requirements," to identify your feature pack and the memory required for your feature set, based on the image you load.
4. Use the tables in the "Feature Set Tables" section to identify which features are supported in a feature set image.
A feature pack is a box that typically contains the following items:
Note Before running RSL, see the "Image Installation Tips and Troubleshooting When Using RSL" section. If you cannot use RSL to load images, you can follow the instructions in the "Alternatives to RSL" section on page 17.
This section describes the following topics:
| Platform | Memory Type | Defaults | Upgrade Options |
|---|---|---|---|
4-MB to 8-MB upgrade: MEM-8S-52= |

The following hardware is supported on the Cisco AS5200 and Cisco AS5300 universal access servers:
The feature packs described in these release notes contain Cisco IOS Release 12.0(5)T software images, some images from previous software releases, and RSL Version 7.7.
To determine the version of Cisco IOS software running on your Cisco AS5200 or Cisco AS5300, log in to the access server and enter the show version user EXEC command.
The output includes more information including processor revision numbers, memory amounts, hardware IDs, and partition information.

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.
For a summary of which feature sets are supported on the Cisco AS5200 and Cisco AS5300, see the previous "Feature Pack Overview Tables" section.
Table 6 and Table 7 list the features and feature sets supported by the Cisco AS5200 and Cisco AS5300 in Cisco IOS Release 12.0(5)T and uses the following conventions to identify features:
Note These feature set tables contain only a selected list of features. These tables are not a cumulative or complete list of all the features in each image.
| 1E1 R2 country support requires specific versions of Mica portware. For details, see the Mica portware release notes, which are available on CCO in the Software Center. Note that country support varies with the portware release level, and the release notes provide a list of countries.
2E1 R1 signaling support for Taiwan requires MICA Portware Version 2.3.1.0. |
This section describes the following topics:
The following information about RSL operations can help you with the installation process:
Modify the Short Timeout value from the Options dialog box in RSL if any of the following elements apply to your installation, m
"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 are connecting to a Cisco AS5200, increase the Short Timeout value to 60 seconds. The Cisco AS5200 requires up to 45 seconds to write a configuration to nonvolatile random-access memory (NVRAM) due to the number of interfaces the it must check during this process.
If you are connecting to any other router or access server, increase the Short Timeout to a value over 25 seconds.
Note If you change the timeout value, you must do so before connecting to the access server, otherwise the new value will not be used. Also, increasing the Short Timeout value can increase the time it takes for RSL to connect to the target access server.
In some cases, RSL is unable to restore the startup configuration. If this happens, follow these steps:
Note The access server configuration register (config-register 0xnnnn) is not restored in the following steps.
Step 2 Restart RSL and connect by 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 the access server is connected, select Download Router Configuration in the Router Software Loader dialog box.
Step 6 Select the appropriate file and click the radio button beside Copy configuration to the router nonvolatile memory. The access server should now contain the startup configuration it had before the initial RSL connection.
Step 7 Exit RSL.
Note If you press Ctrl-Alt-Delete to quit RSL, the router configuration and the configuration register are not restored. However, the configuration file is not deleted from the PC. To restore the configuration file, follow the steps above, beginning with Step 2.
RSL is designed to work with a PC running Microsoft Windows 95 and is the recommended method for downloading software to the router; however, two alternatives are available for installing router software:
Note The sample prompts and output shown in the following sections may not be identical to the prompts displayed on the access server console.
This section explains how to use the copy xmodem flash command to install the router software from the CD-ROM onto the router.
Note This option is not available on the Cisco AS5300. If you are not able to run RSL, the only other option is to use a TFTP server application.
The following example shows how to use the copy xmodem flash command on a Cisco AS5200 universal access server:
As an alternative to RSL, you can use aTFTP or RCP server application to install the router software from the CD-ROM. For complete instructions, see the following location
http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/software/ios120/relnote/fprn/loadswfp.htm.
