Note You can find the most current Cisco IOS documentation on Cisco Connection Online (CCO). These electronic documents may contain updates and modifications made after the hardcopy documents were printed. |
These release notes for Cisco AS5300 universal access servers support Cisco IOS Release 12.0(13). These release notes are updated to describe new memory requirements, hardware support, software platform deferrals, and changes to the microcode or modem code and related documents.
For a list of the software caveats that apply to Cisco IOS Release 12.0, see Caveats for Cisco IOS Release that accompanies these release notes. The caveats document is updated for every maintenance release and is located on Cisco Connection Online (CCO) and the Documentation CD-ROM.
Use these release notes with Cross-Platform Release Notes for Cisco IOS Release on CCO and the Documentation CD-ROM.
These release notes describe the following topics:
The Cisco AS5300 universal access servers provide a versatile data communications platform that performs two functions in a single modular chassis depending on the installed feature cards and Cisco IOS images:
The remote access server is intended for Internet service providers (ISPs), telecommunications carriers, and other service providers that offer managed Internet connections, and also medium to large sites that provide both digital and analog access to users on an enterprise network. By terminating both analog and digital calls on the same chassis simultaneously, the access server provides a clear, simple, and easy migration path from analog dial access services to digital dial access services.
The Cisco AS5300/Voice Gateway is a versatile data communications platform that provides the functions of an access server, router, and digital modem(s) in a single modular chassis. The Cisco AS5300 includes three feature card slots: one holds a T1/E1/PRI feature card, and the other two support modem feature cards or voice digital signal processor (DSP) feature cards. When equipped with modem cards, the Cisco AS5300 serves as a remote access concentrator for dial-up (modem or ISDN) Internet access. When equipped with voice feature cards and Cisco Voice IOS, the Cisco AS5300/Voice Gateway serves as a voice (VoIP) gateway. By using one slot for modems and the other for voice DSPs, the Cisco AS5300 can serve in both capacities. Modem, voice, or fax calls are routed to the appropriate cards/resources via Dialed Number Identification Service (DNIS).
For information on new features and Cisco IOS commands supported by Cisco IOS Release 12.0(13), see "New and Changed Information" section and "Related Documentation" section.

For general information about upgrading to a new software release, see Cisco IOS Upgrade Ordering Instructions located at:
http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/cc/pd/iosw/prodlit/957_pp.htm
Cisco IOS Release 12.0 and later includes bundled modem code, which is the firmware or portware that runs on the Microcom 12-port and MICA 6-port modem cards. Modem code is bundled with the Cisco IOS software image to eliminate the need to store separate modem code. When the access server starts, the Cisco IOS software unpacks the modem code and loads the proper code on the modem cards. Table 3 lists bundled modem code versions.
![]() |
Note The Cisco factory could have installed a later version of modem code than the one bundled with the Cisco IOS software. The factory installs modem code in Flash memory and maps that code to the modems. For information about installing Microcom 12-port modem cards and how Cisco IOS software uses Microcom modem code, see Installing 56K 12-Port Modem Modules in Cisco AS5300 Universal Access Servers and the Cisco AS5300 Universal Access Server Software Configuration Guide. For information about installing MICA 6-port modem cards and how Cisco IOS software uses MICA modem code, see Installing 6-Port Modules and Carrier Cards in Cisco AS5300 Universal Access Servers and the Cisco AS5300 Universal Access Server Software Configuration Guide. |

Note The Cisco factory could have installed a later version of modem code than the one bundled with the Cisco IOS software. When this happens, the factory installs modem code in Flash memory and maps that code to the modems. Unless you fully understand how Cisco IOS software uses modem code, it is important to keep the factory configuration. |
The Cisco IOS software is packaged in feature sets consisting of software imagesdepending on the platform. Each feature set contains a specific set of Cisco IOS features.
![]() |
Caution Cisco IOS images with strong encryption (including, but not limited to 168-bit (3DES) data encryption feature sets) are subject to United States government export controls and have limited distribution. Strong encryption images to be installed outside the United States are likely to require an export license. Customer orders may be denied or subject to delay due to United States government regulations. When applicable, purchaser/user must obtain local import and use authorizations for all encryption strengths. Please contact your sales representative or distributor for more information, or send an e-mail to export@cisco.com. |
