These release notes describe the Cisco IOS Release 11.1(19)R feature packs for Cisco 7200 Series routers.
These release notes contain the following topics:
This section explains how to use this document, describes feature pack components, and has tables that define the aspects of a feature pack.
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, "Feature Pack Product Numbers Quick-Reference List", to identify the software image you want to load.
2 . Use Table 2, "Cisco 7200 Series Feature Packs," to identify your feature pack and the memory required for your feature set, based on the image you load.
3 . Use Table 4, "Cisco 7200 Series Default Memory and Upgrade Options", to check the memory required for your feature set, and determine the factory-default memory on the router and the available memory upgrades.
4 . Use the "Feature Set Table" section to identify which features are supported in a feature set image.
This section describes:
A feature pack is a small box that contains the following items:
The heart of a feature pack is the CD-ROM that contains software images and the Router Software Loader (RSL), which is a Windows 95 application that loads an image onto an access router or server. Each feature pack CD-ROM contains at least one Cisco IOS feature set. The CD booklet, Getting Started with the Router Software Loader explains how to use the RSL to install the router image. If you cannot use the RSL to load images, you can follow the instructions in the "Installing the Software Image Using a TFTP Server Application" section.
Before running the RSL, read the section "Installing Software Images Using the RSL".

This section describes the following:
Table 4 lists the memory delivered by default and the available memory upgrades.
Depending on the circumstances, you might need to determine the amount of main memory (DRAM) required by your Cisco 7200 series router to support a combination of installed port adapter types and the Cisco IOS image you intend to load from the feature pack CD-ROM. To calculate memory requirements, use the publication Cisco 7200 Series Port Adapter Hardware Configuration Guidelines (78-3471-xx), which ships with your chassis.
| Memory Type | Cisco 7200 Series Defaults | Upgrade Options |
|---|---|---|
| Flash memory card | 16 MB | 20-MB upgrade for Cisco 7202: MEM-I/O-7202-20M
8-MB upgrade: MEM-I/O-FLC8M= |
| DRAM | 32 MB | 8-MB upgrade: MEM-NPE-8MB= 16-MB upgrade: MEM-NPE-16MB= 32-MB upgrade: MEM-NPE-32MB= 64-MB upgrade: MEM-NPE-64MB= 183-MB upgrade: MEM-NPE-128MB= |
The Router Software Loader (RSL) Version 7.1 supports many Cisco series of routers. Specific to the Cisco 7200 series, the RSL Version 7.1 supports the Cisco 7202, Cisco 7204, and Cisco 7206).
The feature packs described in these release notes contain Cisco IOS Release 11.1(19)R software images, some earlier images, and the Router Software Loader (RSL) Version 7.1. Before running the RSL, read the "Installing Software Images Using the RSL" section.
To view the version of Cisco IOS software that is running on your Cisco 7200 series router, log in to the router, and enter the show version user EXEC command:
router> show version
An output begins similar to the following. The Cisco IOS version appears in the second line.
Cisco Internetwork Operating System Software IOS (tm) 7200 Software (C7200-BNR2SY-L), Version 11.1(19)R, RELEASE SOFTWARE
The output includes more information including processor revision numbers, memory amounts, hardware IDs, and partition information.
The Router Software Loader (RSL) application contained on the feature pack CD-ROM is designed to work with a PC running Microsoft Windows 95. Refer to the booklet included with the CD-ROM for instructions to install the software images.
This section describes several solutions to problems you might encounter when using the RSL. These solutions are additions to the RSL online help.
This installation tip provides a possible recovery solution in the event that you are unable to connect to your router. You can skip this section unless you are experiencing a connection error.
In some cases, you might receive the following error message while connecting to the target router:
"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 encounter this message, try increasing the Short Timeout value, which is set to 25 seconds, in the Options dialog box, especially if one of the following situations applies:
In some cases, the RSL is unable to restore the startup configuration. If this happens, take the following steps:
Step 1 Ensure that all cables are properly attached to both the router and the PC.
Step 2 Restart the RSL, and connect 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 connected, select Download Router Configuration in the Router Software Loader dialog box.
Step 6 Select the appropriate file, and click Copy configuration to the router's nonvolatile memory.
The router should now contain the startup configuration it had before the initial RSL connection. You can now exit the RSL.
The following information about RSL operations can help you with the installation process:
The Router Software Loader (RSL) application contained on the feature pack CD-ROM is designed to work with a PC running Microsoft Windows 95. The booklet included with the CD-ROM explains how to perform this simple and recommended install process. However, an alternative is available using a TFTP server application to install router software.
This section explains how to use a TFTP server application as an alternative to using the RSL to install the router software from the CD-ROM. You can perform this procedure using a PC (running Microsoft Windows 95 or Microsoft Windows 3.1), a Macintosh, or a UNIX system. You can use either the copy tftp flash or copy rcp flash command to download the software to the router.
First obtain a TFTP application or a remote copy protocol (rcp) application to set up your computer as a TFTP server or an rcp server. You can use the RSL or the TFTP server included on the feature pack CD-ROM to install the software only if you are using a PC running Windows 95. For other operating systems, a number of TFTP or rcp applications are available from independent software vendors or as shareware from public sources on the World Wide Web.
This section provides steps that describe how to install the router software feature sets using a Microsoft Windows 3.1 PC with a TFTP server application. You can also set up your Macintosh or UNIX workstation as a TFTP server and follow the same steps.
To install the software using an rcp application, follow the same procedure and substitute rcp for TFTP in the instructions. You must also substitute the copy rcp flash command for the copy tftp flash command in Step 8.
Step 1 Install any TFTP application on the PC. (Not provided by Cisco.)
Step 2 Launch the TFTP application on the PC. You commonly do this by double-clicking the application icon or its filename.
Step 3 Set up the PC as a TFTP server using the TFTP application setup or configuration facility.
The user interface of most TFTP applications includes a setup facility that allows you to specify the PC as a server. For example, from the TFTP menu of one application, you can select Settings to display a panel that includes a checkbox beside the word Server. To configure the local PC as a server, click in this checkbox.
The TFTP server also allows you to select a "root" directory. You must select the directory in which the Cisco IOS and upgrade files reside, for example d:\cpswinst\images.
Caution Be sure you set up your local PC as a TFTP server. If you overlook this step, you will not be able to perform the copy procedure. This reminder also applies if you are using rcp on your system instead of TFTP.
Step 4 Establish a console session from your local PC (which is now configured as a TFTP server) to the Cisco router.
You can do this in two ways:
Step 5 Connect your PC's Ethernet, Fast Ethernet, or Token Ring port to the router's corresponding LAN port. Use the 10BaseT crossover cable provided if connecting to an Ethernet or Fast Ethernet port. You must use Category 5 cable for Fast Ethernet routers.
For systems without a LAN interface, make sure that the router and the PC have IP connectivity through the available interface (that is, the router and PC can ping each other with IP traffic).
Step 6 At the router prompt, enter the enable mode and supply the necessary password if prompted:
Caution Be aware that a Cisco 7200 series router do not prompt you before it erases the Flash memory card. Also, it will load the Cisco IOS image even if it doesn't fit. For this reason, Cisco Systems recommends that you issue the delete and squeeze commands before copying the new software image to Flash memory.
Step 7 Delete and then squeeze the contents of Flash memory, as shown below.
Step 8 At the router prompt, enter the following command to copy the new software image from the CD-ROM drive of the PC to the Cisco 7200 series router. In this example, the filename 80203408.bin is the name of the file on the CD-ROM. The filename c7200-aj-mz.111-19.cc is the destination name for the IOS image to be copied to the router.
Step 9 When prompted, enter the IP address of your local Microsoft Windows 3.1-based PC, as in the following example. This is the IP address of your local PC, not that of the router.
The entire copying process takes several minutes and differs from network to network. During the transfer process, the software displays messages indicating that it has accessed the file you have specified and is loading it.
The exclamation point (!) indicates that the copy process is taking place. Each exclamation point (!) indicates that ten packets have been transferred successfully. A checksum verification of the image occurs after the image is written to Flash memory.
After the load process completes, the router verifies that the transfer was successful and displays a series of Cs on the console.
Step 10 Enter the reload command to reload the router:
Router# reloadThese release notes should be used in conjunction with the documents listed in this section:
