– a. Each 2-port analog VIC requires 1 DSP (PVDM-256K-4)
– b. Each VIC-2BRI-NT/TE requires 2 DSPs (PVDM-256K-8)
– c. For VWICs, refer to Table 9. For example, 12 G.711 digital T1/E1 voice calls require two DSPs; 12 G.729
calls require four DSPs
– d. Total DSP requirement is the sum ofa, b and c. The DSP resources can not be shared between analog VICs,
BRI VIC and VWICs.
2. For the Early Deployment (ED) releases: Cisco IOS 12.2(8)YN or later (Note: not including 12.2(11)YT) or T
train releases 12.3(1)T or later, please always refer to the DSP Calculator in the following link:
http://www.cisco.com/cgi-bin/Support/DSP/cisco_prodsel.pl
The DSP calculator optimizes the DSP resources for your configuration and suggests CLI configurations.
