Cisco 7200 Series Port Adapter Installation Requirements Cisco 7200 series routers (the 2-slot Cisco 7202, the 4-slot Cisco 7204 and Cisco 7204VXR, and the 6-slot Cisco 7206 and Cisco 7206VXR) support multiprotocol, multimedia routing and bridging with a wide variety of protocols and media types. Network interfaces reside on port adapters that provide a connection between the routers’...
– Chassis Overview—Front View The front of Cisco 7200 series routers provides access to an input/output (I/O) controller and up to two, four, or six network interface port adapters. The I/O controller has a local console port for connecting a data terminal (or data terminal equipment [DTE]) and an auxiliary port for connecting a modem (or other data communications equipment [DCE]) or other devices for configuring and managing the router;...
The port adapters installed in Cisco 7200 series routers are of the same type as those installed in other Cisco 7000 family routers. Cisco 7200 series routers support the online insertion and removal (OIR) of installed port adapters.
PCI buses (left and right) dedicated to the port adapters. The Port Adapter Jacket Card, for use in the Cisco 7200 VXR routers and only with the NPE-G1 or NPE-G2, installs in the I/O controller slot on PCI bus mb0. Because the Port Adapter Jacket Card accepts only one port adapter, and the PCI bus provides another 600 bandwidth points, this bus cannot be oversubscribed because no port adapter is assigned more than 600 bandwidth points.
Figure 1-4 shows the port adapter slot numbering for the Cisco 7200 VXR routers with the Port Adapter Jacket Card installed. For the Cisco 7202, Cisco 7204, and Cisco 7206 routers, port adapters in odd-numbered slots connect to PCI bus mb1 (left bus). Port adapters in even-numbered slots connect to PCI bus mb2 (right bus). The I/O controller connects to PCI bus mb0 (left bus), port adapter slot 0.
The Port Adapter Jacket Card installs into the I/O controller slot on the third PCI bus, mb0. The Port Adapter Jacket Card is designated slot 0, and the port adapter installed in it is designated port adapter slot 7 on the Cisco 7206 VXR router, and slot 5 on the Cisco 7204 VXR router. Guidelines for Installation Cisco 7200 series routers have a finite data-carrying capacity, referred to as bandwidth, that affects the port adapter distribution in the chassis, as well as the number and types of port adapters you can install.

1-22, to record your requirements. Do not calculate bandwidth points for an I/O controller if it is installed in the Cisco 7200 VXR Note router with an NPE-G1 or NPE-G2. With the NPE-G1 or NPE-G2, I/O controllers do not use bandwidth or bandwidth points.
Sample Bandwidth Configuration for the NPE-G1 or NPE-G2 This sample configuration is for a Cisco 7200 VXR chassis with an NPE-G1 or NPE-G2 installed. The maximum points allowed for each PCI bus is 600 points. When any I/O controller is installed with the NPE-G1 or NPE-G2, no bandwidth points are used.
Dual-width port adapters occupy two horizontally aligned port adapter slots when installed in a Cisco 7200 series router; however, dual-width port adapters do not use both PCI bus mb1 (left bus) and PCI bus mb2 (right bus) when operating in the router.

Installation Requirements Based on the NPE or NSE Installed Sample Bandwidth Configuration for the NPE-225, NPE-200, NPE-175, and NPE-150 The following sample configurations are for a Cisco 7200 series router with an I/O controller and NPE-225 installed. The maximum points allowed is 800 points per chassis.

Depending on the circumstances, you might need to determine the amount of main memory (DRAM or SDRAM) required by your Cisco 7200 series router to support a combination of installed port adapter types and a specific Cisco IOS software subset image.
Question Answer What determines the amount of SDRAM or The DRAM or SDRAM required by a Cisco 7200 series router to support a DRAM memory required? combination of installed port adapter types and a Cisco IOS software subset image is influenced by such variables as the features in the software you plan to use and the size of your network.

(listed under specific Cisco IOS releases) for memory requirements, Cisco IOS Software Memory Requirements Cisco IOS memory requirements are listed in the Cisco IOS Release Notes. The SDRAM column provides processor memory information. Flash memory recommendations are also included. For Cisco IOS Release Notes, see the documentation page for Cisco IOS software configuration.
Cisco 7200 series router has 32 MB of DRAM or SDRAM. If your Cisco 7200 series router has 64 MB or more of DRAM or SDRAM installed, you have enough memory to support any combination of installed port adapter types and Cisco IOS software subset images.
Step 3 This completes the procedure for determining the minimum amount of DRAM or SDRAM required by a Cisco 7200 series router to support a combination of installed port adapters and the Cisco IOS software subset image. For a sample configuration of a Cisco 7206 router that has an installed NPE-150, an I/O controller with the Fast Ethernet port, and Cisco IOS software subset images for Cisco IOS Release 11.1CA and Cisco...
