[c-nsp] ASR1002-X & (2) full BGP feeds

Fri Apr 24 06:09:59 EDT 2015

Hello
That was also the case for the ASR1001 but we just checked the specification for the ram and then sought out some compatible sticks (seems like HP has some server that uses the same specification) When that was done all we needed to do was to see who was making sticks to compatible with the HP Spare part number. :)

Good to know. Thanks, Scott.

Unfortunately, it looks like Kingston does not carry RAM for the ASR1002-X ...

Will keep hunting!

Kingston all the way.  At least for a while I know they were the company having their memory rebranded.  Not sure if this is still the case but have had very good luck with their memory modules  in Cisco devices.
