RSP720 with 10GE Uplink Ports
Note If you insert an RSP720-10GE into an unsupported chassis, the RSP720-10GE drops to
ROMmon and only the console is accessible.
• SPA interface processors (SIPs) and their shared port adapters (SPAs): 7600-SIP-600,
7600-SIP-400, and 7600-SIP-200

• Ethernet services modules: 2-port 10 GE line card (7600-ESM-2X10GE) and 20-port 1 GE line card
(7600-ESM-20X1GE)
• Distributed Forwarding Cards: DFC3C, DFC3CXL, DFC3B, DFC3BXL

Unsupported Chassis and Modules
The RSP720-10GE does not support the following chassis and modules:
• Unsupported chassis: Cisco 7603, 7606, and 7613 chassis
• Unsupported modules: Services modules, Optical Service Modules (OSMs), FlexWAN module
Unsupported Features
In Cisco IOS Release 12.2SRC, the RSP720-10GE does not support the following features, which are
supported on the RSP720:
• High-availability features such as NonStop Forwarding with Stateful Switchover (NSF/SSO) and
In-Service Software Upgrade (ISSU) are not supported. Only Route Processor Redundancy (RPR)
mode is supported.
Note For SRD4 release, two new commands are introduced for high availability feature. The commands are
platform redundancy bias and show platform redundancy bias.
For complete syntax and usage information for the commands, refer to the Cisco IOS High Availability
Command Reference at this URL:

• The uplinks on the standby RSP720-10GE are not active. This restriction exists because the uplink
ports must perform lookups on the active RSP, which is not possible in RPR mode.
• Intelligent Service Gateway is not supported.
• Device authentication to prevent counterfeiting
