1 In addition to the Cisco IOS software listed above, each software bundle contains the following software: Cisco IOS software for the system switch processor (SSP) card, ICS System Manager, ICS Core Software, and system alarm processor (SAP) software. The x.x.x in the system software bundle name represents the release number. For example, for release 2.5.0, the name of the bundle containing the IP/Voice Plus image would be S77a-2.5.0.

2 Flash memory is not used for the Cisco IOS image on ASIs and MRP200s. Since onboard flash is not available on ASIs and MRP200s, a Cisco IOS compressed image resides on the system processing engine (SPE) and is downloaded to the RAM of each ASI or MRP200 before image decompression.

3 You can upgrade ASI or MRP card memory to 80 MB, 96 MB, or 128MB by installing a dual in-line memory module (DIMM) in the card DIMM slot. For memory upgrade instructions, refer to Installing Memory, PVDM, and VPN Modules in ASI Cards, MRP Cards, and SPE Cards in the Cisco ICS 7750.

4 This image comprises one of the voice-only packages, and does not include data networking support.

MRP and ASI Card Upgrades

You can upgrade MRP and ASI cards as follows:

•Memory. MRP and ASI cards ship with 64 MB of dynamic RAM (DRAM). You can upgrade MRP and ASI card memory to 80 MB, 96, or 128 MB by installing a dual in-line memory module (DIMM) in the card DIMM slot.

•Voice and data processing power. VICs, VWICs, and FXS modules installed in MRP or ASI cards might require additional digital signal processors (DSPs) for processing heavier volumes of voice traffic. You can install Packet Voice/Data Modules (PVDMs) in one or both of the card PVDM slots to give MRP and ASI cards more processing power.

Note See Installing Memory, PVDM, and VPN Modules in ASI Cards, MRP Cards, and SPE Cards in the Cisco ICS 7750 for instructions on how to upgrade ASI and MRP cards.

Open Caveats - Release 12.2(11)YU

This section describes unexpected behavior in Release 12.2(11)YU.

CSCdz77734

If you are using ISDN PRI with MGCP on an MRP300 with two VWIC-1MFT-T1s, the PRI line that is associated with Slot 1 in the VWIC-1MFT-T1 will not work properly.

Workaround—Install a VWIC-2MFT-T1 in the MRP300 and leave the other MRP slot empty.

CSCdy19867

When a call to the PSTN is being made through MRP FXS and FXO interfaces on which the forward-digits all command has been entered, it is possible that the DTMF tones might be echoed back to the call originator, due to a suspected problem with the echo canceller.

Workaround—Tuning the echo canceller settings and disabling the forward all digits functionality on the necessary FXS and FXO interfaces should help solve this problem. Refer to the following documentation for more information:

•Cisco IOS Voice, Video, and Fax Configuration Guide

•IP Telephony Solution Guide

•Voice Parameters and Tuning Guide

CSCdy02040

If you are using an MRP or ASI with an E1 or T1 CAS trunk, if you change the TDM clocking on an E1 or T1 controller from an export clock configuration to an import clock configuration, and if the E1 or T1 controller is shut down when its clocking is changed, then configuring a DS0 group and entering a no shut command on that controller will cause intermittent call failures on some time slots.

For example, if interface T1 0/0 is configured as an export clock and interface T1 0/1 is also configured as an export clock, the following sequence of commands will cause intermittent call failures on T1 0/1: 

    controller T1 0/0

    shutdown

    no ds0-group 0 timeslots 1-24

    no tdm clock T1 0/0


    controller T1 0/1

    shutdown

    no ds0-group 1 timeslots 1-24

    no tdm clock T1 0/1


    tdm clock T1 0/0 voice export line

    tdm clock T1 0/1 voice import T1 0/0 internal


    controller T1 0/0

    ds0-group 0 timeslots 1-24 type e&m-wink-start

    no shutdown


    controller T1 0/1

    ds0-group 1 timeslots 1-24 type e&m-wink-start

    no shutdown

Workaround—Do not shut down the E1 or T1 controller before changing its tdm clock configuration. Based on the example shown above, the following configuration will work: 

    controller T1 0/0

    no ds0-group 0 timeslots 1-24

    no tdm clock T1 0/0


    controller T1 0/1

    no ds0-group 1 timeslots 1-24

    no tdm clock T1 0/1


    tdm clock T1 0/0 voice export line

    tdm clock T1 0/1 voice import T1 0/0 internal


    controller T1 0/0

    ds0-group 0 timeslots 1-24 type e&m-wink-start


    controller T1 0/1

    ds0-group 1 timeslots 1-24 type e&m-wink-start

Obtaining Technical Assistance

Cisco provides Cisco.com as a starting point for all technical assistance. Customers and partners can obtain documentation, troubleshooting tips, and sample configurations from online tools by using the Cisco Technical Assistance Center (TAC) Web Site. Cisco.com registered users have complete access to the technical support resources on the Cisco TAC Web Site.

Cisco.com

Cisco.com is the foundation of a suite of interactive, networked services that provides immediate, open access to Cisco information, networking solutions, services, programs, and resources at any time, from anywhere in the world.

Cisco.com is a highly integrated Internet application and a powerful, easy-to-use tool that provides a broad range of features and services to help you to

•Streamline business processes and improve productivity

•Resolve technical issues with online support

•Download and test software packages

•Order Cisco learning materials and merchandise

•Register for online skill assessment, training, and certification programs

You can self-register on Cisco.com to obtain customized information and service. To access Cisco.com, go to the following URL:

http://www.cisco.com

Technical Assistance Center

The Cisco TAC is available to all customers who need technical assistance with a Cisco product, technology, or solution. Two types of support are available through the Cisco TAC: the Cisco TAC Web Site and the Cisco TAC Escalation Center.

Inquiries to Cisco TAC are categorized according to the urgency of the issue:

•Priority level 4 (P4)—You need information or assistance concerning Cisco product capabilities, product installation, or basic product configuration.

•Priority level 3 (P3)—Your network performance is degraded. Network functionality is noticeably impaired, but most business operations continue.

•Priority level 2 (P2)—Your production network is severely degraded, affecting significant aspects of business operations. No workaround is available.

•Priority level 1 (P1)—Your production network is down, and a critical impact to business operations will occur if service is not restored quickly. No workaround is available.

Which Cisco TAC resource you choose is based on the priority of the problem and the conditions of service contracts, when applicable.

Cisco TAC Web Site

The Cisco TAC Web Site allows you to resolve P3 and P4 issues yourself, saving both cost and time. The site provides around-the-clock access to online tools, knowledge bases, and software. To access the Cisco TAC Web Site, go to the following URL:

http://www.cisco.com/tac

All customers, partners, and resellers who have a valid Cisco services contract have complete access to the technical support resources on the Cisco TAC Web Site. The Cisco TAC Web Site requires a Cisco.com login ID and password. If you have a valid service contract but do not have a login ID or password, go to the following URL to register:

http://www.cisco.com/register/

If you cannot resolve your technical issues by using the Cisco TAC Web Site, and you are a Cisco.com registered user, you can open a case online by using the TAC Case Open tool at the following URL:

http://www.cisco.com/tac/caseopen

If you have Internet access, it is recommended that you open P3 and P4 cases through the Cisco TAC Web Site.

Cisco TAC Escalation Center

The Cisco TAC Escalation Center addresses issues that are classified as priority level 1 or priority level 2; these classifications are assigned when severe network degradation significantly impacts business operations. When you contact the TAC Escalation Center with a P1 or P2 problem, a Cisco TAC engineer will automatically open a case.

To obtain a directory of toll-free Cisco TAC telephone numbers for your country, go to the following URL:

http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/687/Directory/DirTAC.shtml

Before calling, please check with your network operations center to determine the level of Cisco support services to which your company is entitled; for example, SMARTnet, SMARTnet Onsite, or Network Supported Accounts (NSA). In addition, please have available your service agreement number and your product serial number.
