[c-nsp] RSP720-3C-10GE with daughter card = RSP720-3CXL-10GE?

[Dmitry Valdov]

Hello,


As I understood, the question was about posibility of upgrading 3C to 3CXL by adding
3CXL DFC to it. It was possible to do such upgrade with 3BXL (by adding
WS-F6K-PFC3BXL=). I had done it.
Is it possible to do the same with 3CXL systems? There is no WS-F6K-PFC-3CXL
in GPL. There is only WS-F6700-DFC3CXL  which might be different.

Also is it possible to upgrade 7600-ES20-10G3C to 7600-ES20-10G3CXL by
replacing daughter card on it?

Is this true?  I mean from a technical stand point it may be true and maybe the only thing I won't have is the 3CXL letters on the outside of the blade.

Our main concern is that we want to ensure that we can hold the entire global routing table and beyond and so far only the 3CXL version fits that bill.  We also want to make sure we get the default memory that comes with the 3CXL version and make sure we don't get cheated on lower amount of memory.
