Hello Oliver,

Are you really sure that the 800-2427-02 supports 512mb and is a GRP-B?
I found one of those in one of our routers but it seems to be an ordindary
grp.
The inscription on the card says grp and grp-b too.

Show diag 7
SLOT 7  (RP/LC 7 ): Route Processor
  MAIN: type 19,  800-2427-02 rev A0
        Deviation:  D006289
        HW config: 0xFF    SW key: FF-FF-FF
  PCA:  73-2170-06 rev A0 ver 3

  DIAG: Test count: 0x00000000    Test results: 0x00000000
  FRU:  Linecard/Module: GRP=
        Route Memory: MEM-GRP/LC-256=
  MBUS Agent Software version 1.99 (RAM) (ROM version is 2.41)
  ROM Monitor version 2.2
  Primary clock is CSC 1
  Board State is IOS Running  ACTIVE (ACTV  RP )
  Insertion time: 00:03:48 (2w4d ago)
  DRAM size: 268435456 bytes 

What do you think?


Thanks,
Gunher
