Solved: Re: csm on 6500

rpalacio · ‎10-30-2003

A bit of confussion...In page 3-1 of the CSM(content switching module) manual of 6500, it says 'be sure that the cisco ios versions for the switch and the module match.'...Does this mean that the CSM is also running cisco IOS?...If that is so, why are there softwares on CSM saying release 2.1(1) etc..while IOS's are 12.xxx?

Hi,

no this only means that the IOS version ahs to fit a minimum release if you use a certain CSM release. The CSM runs an own image but is configured via the IOS.

The reference above points towards 2-2 where this is described in detail

Hope that clarified things...
