[cisco-voip] ISR 2800 support in new CUCM 8.6 (and future

[Lelio Fulgenzi]

This was my understanding. I think the vendor's can say compatible as it likely works, but TAC supported is a different story. 

I suspect someone deploying 100 routers might opt to buy 3rd party memory and then swap it in for Cisco memory during a support call (or even before support to confirm things). 

But if it turns out memory is the problem, it's a pretty big budget item surprise. For places that have contingency budgets, it might work.

No such thing as TAC Supported 3 rd Party anything. That’s not to say you can’t use it though. It’s like asking the dealer for help with your aftermarket Stereo. What the URL talks about is if you complain your steering wheel doesn’t work, and they figure it’s not working because of the new stereo they can charge you for the troubleshooting time.

This is the first I've heard of TAC supported third party memory. Maybe the Cisco folk on the list can confirm/deny this? 

Is there a Cisco link which lists the approved 3rd party memory?

Here is an example. 

http://www.memoryx.net/mem2821512d.html 

This is some memory for a 2821. You can buy it and TAC will support 
it per the description.
