Supported Platforms

The NSE-100 is only supported on the Cisco 7304 router. Most Cisco IOS releases, including Cisco IOS
Release 12.1EX, 12.2S, 12.2SBC, and 12.2SB, used to run the Cisco 7304 router can be used while
running an NSE-100.

NSE-100 Description

This section contains information about the NSE-100 components and the system management
functions. The NSE-100 contains a Route Processor and PXF processors. The Route Processor maintains
and executes the system management functions for the Cisco 7304 router. The PXF processors work with
the Route Processor to provide accelerated packet switching, as well as accelerated IP Layer 3 feature
processing.

NSE-100 Hardware MAC Addresses Filtering

Each native Gigabit Ethernet port on the NSE-100 can support up to 64 hardware MAC addresses. Each
port's MAC addresses are stored in a hardware MAC address filtering table. With two NSE-100s
installed, the chassis can support up to four native Gigabit Ethernet ports.
