Installation Prerequisites
This section describes the minimum compatibility requirements that your system hardware and
software must meet before you install a new CSC-C2CTR. It describes the various commands you
can use to verify the compatibility requirements.
System Compatibility Requirements
Before installing a new CSC-C2CTR, ensure that your existing system components meet the
following minimum configuration requirements for compatibility with the card:
•
•
•

An AGS+ with a CSC/3 or CSC/4 processor card.
The system is running Software Release 9.1 or later.
A CSC-CCTL2 ciscoBus 2 controller card (Controller Type 6.0 or later) is installed.
All ciscoBus interface cards are compatible with the CSC-CCTL2. (All must be running
Microcode Version 10.0 or later.) If you are replacing a CSC-CCTL with a CSC-CCTL2, you
must also upgrade all existing ciscoBus interfaces to Microcode Version 10.0 (or later) at the
same time you replace the ciscoBus controller card.
All Multibus Token Ring interface cards meet the following requirements:
— CSC-1R and CSC-2R microcode is Version 1.2 or later.
— CSC-R16M microcode is Version 3.2 or later.
Refer to the section "Compatibility with Other Cards" on page 15 for compatibility requirements
for all ciscoBus and Multibus cards when running Software Release 9.1 (required for
CSC-C2CTR and CSC-CCTL2 operation).
An applique card cage (product number MAS-CCG) is installed in the chassis, and there is at
least one empty slot available.
or
You received a new card cage in which the APP-LTR2 is already installed.
There is a ciscoBus slot available (empty) for each CSC-C2CTR you will install.
