Release Notes for the Cisco 1700 Series Routers for Cisco IOS Release 12.2(8)YM
July 30, 2003
These release notes describe new features and significant software components for the Cisco 1700 series routers that support Cisco IOS Release 12.2 T, up to and including Release 12.2(8)YM1. These release notes are updated as needed to describe new memory requirements, new features, new hardware support, software platform deferrals, microcode or modem code changes, related document changes, and any other important changes. Use these release notes with the Cross-Platform Release Notes for Cisco IOS Release 12.2 T located on CCO and the Documentation CD.
For a list of the software caveats that apply to Release 12.2(8)YM1, refer to the section "Caveats" and to the online Caveats for Cisco IOS Release 12.2 T document. The caveats document is updated for every 12.2 T maintenance release and is located on Cisco Connection Online (CCO) and the Documentation CD.

•
•
Memory Requirements
This section describes the memory requirements for the Cisco IOS feature sets supported by Cisco IOS Release 12.2(8)YM1 on the Cisco 1700 series routers

Cisco IOS Release 12.2(8)YM1 supports the following Cisco 1700 series routers:
•
•
The Cisco 1751, 1751-V, 1760, and 1760-V routers run data or data-and-voice images, providing digital and analog voice support.
For detailed descriptions of new hardware features and which features are supported on each router, see the "New and Changed Information" section. For descriptions of existing hardware features and supported modules, see the hardware installation guides, configuration and command reference guides, and additional documents specific to Cisco 1700 series routers, which are available on Cisco.com and the Documentation CD at the following location:

For general information about upgrading to a new software release, see Software Installation and Upgrade Procedures located at: http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/130/upgrade_index.shtml.
Feature Set Tables
The Cisco IOS software is packaged in feature sets consisting of software images—depending on the platform. Each feature set contains a specific set of Cisco IOS features. Release 12.2(8)YM1 supports the same feature sets as Releases 12.2 and 12.2(8)T, but Release 12.2(8)YM1 includes new features supported by the Cisco 1700 series routers.

Note
New and Changed Information
The following sections list the new hardware and software features supported by the Cisco 1700 series routers for Release 12.2(8)YM1.
New Software Features in Release 12.2(8)YM
The following sections describe the new software features supported by the Cisco 1700 series routers for Release 12.2(8)YM.
For additional information on these features and their configurations, refer to Cisco IOS Telephony Feature Enhancements for Cisco IOS Release 12.2(8)YM at http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/software/ios122/122newft/122limit/122y/122ym/1228ym/its122ym.fm.
Live Feed Music on Hold (MoH)
This feature provides support for MoH from a live audio feed connected to the router by an analog voice port. A Foreign Exchange Office (FXO) analog voice port or Ear and Mouth (E&M) analog voice port on the router provides MoH to the ITS system. The router checks the connection every 30 seconds and re-establishes it if the MoH call is terminated. In addition, the music file in the flash memory provides redundancy if the live audio feed is disconected or discontinued.
Speed-Dial Directory
Local speed-dial is a new option on the Cisco IP Phone. For the local speed-dial option to be selected, a flash file named "speeddial.xml" is sent to a phone. In order for this feature to function, the "speeddial.xml" file must be in flash memory.
Top-Line Description
The top-line description is a software-generated label on the top black bar of the display on the Cisco 7960 or Cisco 7940 IP Phone. The top-line description can be labeled using a configuration command. Example of the label are "Cisco Systems" or "408-525-6000."
New Software Features in Release 12.2(8)T
For information regarding the features supported in Cisco IOS Release 12.2 T, refer to the Cross-Platform Release Notes and New Feature Documentation links at the following location on CCO:

Limitations
Live Feed MoH
Only one Live Feed MoH is supported per system.
Live feed MoH on an FXS voice port is not a realistic option.
Speed-Dial Directory Capacity
A maximum of 32 entries is allowed in the "speeddial.xml" file.
Important Notes
The following sections contain important notes about Cisco IOS Release 12.2(8)YM1 that can apply to the Cisco 1700 series routers. (Also, see the "Caveats" section.)
T1/E1 VWIC Support on Cisco 1751 and 1760 Routers
The Cisco 1751 and 1760 routers no longer need a voice image to support data applications on T1/E1 VWICs.
Fan Operation in Cisco 1700 Series Routers
Cisco 1760 and 1760-V router fans are always on, and Cisco 1710 routers do not contain a fan. However, the fans in Cisco 1720, 1721, 1750, and 1751 routers stay off until thermally activated.
Flash defaults to Flash:1 on Multipartition Flash
When using a multipartition flash card, the various flash partitions are referred to as "flash:1:", "flash:2:", etc. If you specify only "flash" in a multipartition flash, the parser assumes "flash:1:." For example, if you enter show flash all the parser defaults to "show flash:1: all" and only the flash information for the first partition displays. To see information for all flash partitions, enter show flash ?. This will list all of the valid partitions. Then enter show flash:xx: all on each valid partition.
Peak Cell Rate and Sustainable Cell Rate Values
On Cisco 1700 routers, specify the Peak Cell Rate (PCR) and Sustainable Cell Rate (SCR) as multiples of 32 Kbps. Other rates are treated as the next lower value of a multiple of 32. For example, an entered PCR value of 150 is considered 128.
Using the boot flash Command
Booting a Cisco 1700 series router with the commands boot flash or boot system flash results in unpredictable behavior. To work around this problem, be sure to enter a colon (:) following both commands (for example, boot flash: or boot system flash:).
Using Dialer Interface with MLPPPoATM
This feature is not supported on the Cisco 1700 series platforms. Please use the Virtual Template interface instead.
Caveats
Caveats describe unexpected behavior or defects in Cisco IOS software releases. Severity 1 caveats are the most serious caveats, severity 2 caveats are less serious, and severity 3 caveats are the least serious of these three severity levels.
Caveats in Release 12.2 T are also in Release 12.2(8)YM1. For information on caveats in Cisco IOS Release 12.2 T, refer to the Caveats for Cisco IOS Release 12.2 T document. For information on caveats in Cisco IOS Release 12.2, refer to the Caveats for Cisco IOS Release 12.2 document. These documents list severity 1 and 2 caveats, and are located on CCO and the Documentation CD.
Note
Resolved Caveats - Release 12.2(8)YM1
Cisco IOS Release 12.2(8)YM1 is a rebuild release for Cisco IOS Release 12.2(8)YL. This section describes unexpected behavior that is fixed in Release 12.2(8)YM1.
Miscellaneous
CSCdz71127
Cisco routers and switches running Cisco IOS software and configured to process Internet Protocol version 4 (IPv4) packets are vulnerable to a Denial of Service (DoS) attack. A rare sequence of crafted IPv4 packets sent directly to the device may cause the input interface to stop processing traffic once the input queue is full. No authentication is required to process the inbound packet. Processing of IPv4 packets is enabled by default. Devices running only IP version 6 (IPv6) are not affected. A workaround is available.
Cisco has made software available, free of charge, to correct the problem.
