[cisco-voip] ensuring component compatibility with IOS version

[Lelio Fulgenzi]

It's confusing to say the least, especially when the first M version was 15.0 and the first T version was 15.1 and that figure 4 is mislabeled. 

It almost sounds like anything in 15.(x)M will be in 15.(x+1)T. 

Of course, I'm likely wrong, but it's just not clearly documented.

Lelio, 



The T and M are the same train. Say something comes out in 17.1.0M anything with a number greater than that will have the feature 7.1.5T or 17.1.9M. 



M just means they think you should be able to stay on the code longer. 



This is completely different from what T used to mean, but I believe they've gotten rid of the GD/LD/ED stuff.

While that does explain how they handle the trains differently, still doesn't help with respect to knowing for sure whether a module is supported in a specific train. 

I recalled a similar discussion we had with the translation limit and how it was increased in a particular M train but not sure in which T train it was in. This link was shared: 

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/prod/collateral/iosswrel/ps8802/ps10587/ps10591/ps10621/qa_c67_561940.html

This link explains things a bit more, but still, does not clearly indicate in which T train version a certain M train feature is included. 

It looks as though both trains will incorporate new features that may or may not be included in the other train. Which simply adds to the confusion. 

While it's pretty easy to look up IOS commands in references, module support is not as easy.

Take a look here, trains don’t work like they used to: http://www.cisco.com/en/US/prod/collateral/iosswrel/ps8802/ps5460/product_bulletin_c25-557281_ps5854_Products_Bulletin.html 

You should be fine, that was a brand new ISR G2 part, and no EOL has been announced.

What's the easiest way to ensure a component is compatible with the IOS version you are running? 

For example, ISM-SRE-300-K9 says minimum version is 15.0(1)M, but I want to know which T train it's supported in. Rather than trying to figure out which T train version 15.0(1)M was included in, I'd like to just see a compatibility tool. 

All I can find is feature navigator and that doesn't list components. 

Thoughts?
