Note In the output display of the show diag command (see page 30), the line that begins with Controller
Memory Size shows the amount of memory installed on the VIP6-80. Make a note of these memory
values, then compare them after you upgrade memory to verify the upgrade.
The following Cisco Systems memory spare and upgrade kits are compatible with the VIP6-80:
Depending on your system configuration, a memory upgrade might be required. Also, if a system
problem is determined to be caused by a DIMM, a DIMM replacement might be required.
Figure 1 shows the locations of the CPU memory and packet memory SDRAM DIMMs on the VIP6-80.
Caution Handle the DIMM by the card edges only, and avoid touching the memory module, pins, or traces (the
metal fingers along the connector edge of the DIMM). (See Figure 8.)
Figure 8 Handling the DIMM
Note Use only SDRAM DIMMs from Cisco Systems. A Cisco manufacturing part number appears on each
SDRAM DIMM.
