Note
Replacement instructions for removing and replacing FRUs are contained in separate online documents.
For example, if you need to replace an AC power supply in your Cisco 7200 VXR router, refer to the
280-Watt AC-Input Power Supply Replacement Instructions
available on the Documentation DVD and on Cisco.com.
Network Processing Engine or Network Services Engine
The network processing engine or network services engine maintains and executes the system
management functions for Cisco 7200 VXR routers. Also, the network processing engine or network
services engine shares the system memory and environmental monitoring functions with the I/O
controller.
Because the NPE-G1 and NPE-G2 contain I/O functionality, the Cisco 7200 VXR routers can operate
with no I/O controller with an NPE-G1 or NPE-G2 installed. With both an I/O controller and the NPE-G1
or NPE-G2 installed, the NPE-G1 or NPE-G2 enhances the I/O controller functionality.
Cisco 7200 VXR routers support nine versions of the network processing engine: NPE-G2, NPE-G1,
NPE-400, NPE-300, NPE-225, NPE-200, NPE-175, NPE-150, and NPE-100. These network processing
engines have the same functionality; however, their performance differs because of the microprocessor
type and the type of memory for packet data (SRAM and DRAM, or SDRAM) that each network
processing engine provides.
Cisco 7200 VXR routers also support the NSE-1, which consists of two modular boards: the processor
engine board and the network controller board. The NSE-1 Parallel eXpress Forwarding (PXF) processor
works with the Route Processor to provide accelerated packet switching, as well as accelerated IP
Layer 3 feature processing.
Note
Detailed instructions for removing and replacing the network processing engines or network services
engine are contained in the online Network Processing Engine and Network Services Engine Installation
and Configuration publication. It is available on the Documentation DVD and on Cisco.com.
The network processing engines and network services engine consist of the following components:
