[c-nsp] Minimum hardware and version to run VSS

[Chuck Church]

I'm pretty sure you need a PFC 3C or higher.  The 3B on that Sup720 won't
work.

He is thinking about adding some extra redundancy by adding a second chassis
and migration to a VSS stack.


I've tried to look for the minimum requirements to run a VSS stack through
the Cisco Feature Navigator. According to it, my client is not eligible but
I wanted to gather your opinions first.


What do you think is the minimum requirements to meet hardware / software
wize ?

Thank you for your help.

Best regards.
