These release notes describe Cisco IOS Release 11.2 feature packs for Cisco 7200 series routers.
Product numbers for the feature packs are as follows:
These release notes contain the following sections:
These feature packs support Cisco 7204 and Cisco 7206 routers.
The heart of a Cisco IOS software feature pack is a CD-ROM that contains a software image and Router Software Loader (RSL), a Windows 95 application that loads the image onto the access server/router. Each Cisco IOS Release 11.2 feature pack CD contains one feature set. For users without Windows 95, images can also be loaded with a Trivial File Transfer Protocol server application, as explained in these release notes.
Each Cisco IOS Release 11.2 software feature pack box contains the following:
This section describes the Cisco feature packs, listing the software feature sets comprising each feature pack. You can use this information to identify your feature pack set in conjunction with the corresponding information provided in Table 3 in the section "Cisco IOS Release 11.2 Feature Sets". Table 3 identifies which features are supported for a feature set on a specific platform.
This section includes two tables: Table 1, describes each feature pack image, including a brief description of each feature set, the UNIX and DOS filenames of the images, and the memory required to run each feature set on the Cisco 7200 Series Router. Table 1 lists the memory delivered by default, and Table 3, Table 4, and Table 5 list the the memory upgrades available.
You can use Table 1 to identify the memory required for your configuration based on the image you run. You can then check this against Table 3, Table 4, and Table 5 to determine how much memory is available on the router as the factory default and the upgrades that you can obtain to satisfy your requirements.
Table 1 provides feature pack names, descriptions, and UNIX filenames of the Cisco IOS images.

This section describes several solutions to problems you might encounter when using 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 access server or 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, 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 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 RSL.
The following information about RSL operations can help you with the installation process:
This section identifies supported features, within each feature set, supported on Cisco 7200 series routers. Table 2 shows specific features supported for Cisco IOS Release 11.2 feature sets.
The table uses these conventions to identify features:
You can use the information given in the table provided in this section in conjunction with the information in Table 1 to determine which features a particular feature set supports.

For a list of features supported by the back rev feature sets, see the release notes available on the Documentation CD-ROM or the World Wide Web (at http://www.cisco.com, http://www-europe.cisco.com, or http://www-china.cisco.com). To find a feature set list for Cisco IOS Release 11.1(14), locate the Cisco IOS Software Configuration database. Then select Cisco IOS Release 11.1, and then select Release Notes for Cisco IOS Release 11.1.
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.
Table 3 lists Cisco 7200 series DRAM options, and Table 4 lists Cisco 7200 series Flash memory card options. Note that all spare PCMCIA Flash memory cards are shipped blank and unformatted.

The Router Software Loader 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.
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:
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:
