Hi Rajat,
What do you mean "upgrading"?
Is that IOS upgrade?

hi naidu
can you suggest . can we install line card having 10G modules because max switching support 48gbps.

Hi Rajat,
Yes, you can do that...
Backward Compatibility of Line Cards:
When upgrading to a new supervisor engine for enhanced
capability, customers are given the flexibility to reuse existing line cards or upgrade to higher performance
line cards without changing the complete system,
Please see the below link to know more about link cards:

Regarding your IOS upgrade please follow the below steps for successfull upgradation:
The software upgrade procedure supported by supervisor engine redundancy allows you to upgrade the Cisco IOS software image on the supervisor engines without reloading the system.
Step1:
Config#Switch# copy source_device:source_filename
Step2:
slot0:target_filename
Switch# config terminal
Switch(config)# config-register 0x2
Switch(config)# boot system flash slot0: cat4000-is-mz.121-11b.EW
(Configures the supervisor engines to boot the new image)
Step3:
Switch# copy running-config start-config
(Saves the configurations)
Step4:
Switch# redundancy reload peer
(Reloads the standby supervisor engine and bring it back online (running the new version of the Cisco IOS software).
Note Before reloading the standby supervisor engine, make sure you wait long enough to ensure that all configuration synchronization changes have completed. )
Step5:
Switch# redundancy force-switchover
(Conducts a manual switchover to the standby supervisor engine. The standby supervisor engine becomes the new active supervisor engine running the new Cisco IOS software image. The modules reload and the module software downloads from the new active supervisor engine.
The old active supervisor engine reboots with the new image and becomes the standby supervisor engine.)
Hope this helps you.

hi naidu
can you post idfferences bwteen two 4510R+E and 4510R-E models in 4500 series
02-25-2011 03:58 AM
Hi Rajat,
As you asked, below are the differences between 4510r+e and 4510r-e 4503-E, 4506-E, 4507R+E, and 4510R+E chassis are extremely flexible and
support either 6 Gbps, 24 Gbps, or 48Gbps per line-card slot.
The 4510R-E chassis are limited to 6 Gbps and 24 Gbps per line-card slot.
The 4510+E chassis has new mux-buffers to support 48G/slot in the redundant chassis. The higher speed mux-buffers result in the lower rated MTBF. We priced lower to encourage transition. Going forward,
I recommend R+E chassis purchases only.
And The 4510R+ chassis can more for a better price than 4510- chassis.
Hope this clear you...
