Unrelated to DSP but check out

Router shows up as 98% memory utilisation when running IOS XE 3.X

What I am trying to express, although perhaps worded ambiguously, is that all your TDM resources are on the NIM and that I don't believe you could share the DSP from the backplane along with the NIM resources, for the purposes of TDM.

I would agree that you are correct, in that any unallocated DSP on a NIM could be configured for other dspfarm tasks (Ex. Transcoding/Transrating, Hardware MTP .. etc).

What do mean by shareable to the backplane?  It is my understanding that unused DSPs on a NIM can be used for conferencing/transcoding/MTP.

I think that is where my lack of specificity comes into play; the NIM conversation I thought I was participating in was an extension of a convo this AM, regarding a T1 PRI, in which those DSP are reserved for TDM only, and not shareable to the backplane or vice a versa.

Thanks,

TDM DSPs on the 4ks have to be on the NIM because there is no shared TDM clocking backplane like there is on the ISRs/ISR G2.

Dspfarm stuff can use extra dsps on a NIM and the motherboard DSPs can only be used for dspfarm tasks.

I was under the same assumption of why there was a dsp slot on the NIM. I know I read a Cisco doc somewhere that lead me that direction.

So this is interesting; I was under the impression the backplane DSP could not extend to the NIM (and is the fundamental reason, among others, that the NIM has its own DSP) .... looks like I have a new lab task :).

Q: Does that mean conference resource will be used from NIM DSP not from mother board DSP resources

A: When it comes to IP services (xcoding, conferencing, MTP) The motherboard DSP can be pooled with the NIM DSPs to increase the DSPfarm scale

My understanding is any dspfarm resources such as conferencing/transcoding use the motherboard resources while the ones on the NIM are just for the voice ports themselves.

If you will be using DSP's you will need to decided if you will need them on the motherboard or on the T1 NIM. On the motherboard I believe it can only be used for conferencing. You will need them on the NIM for transcoding.

T1 PRI commands are substantially different if that is in play.

The vast majority of commands are the same. Netflow stuff is changed completely if you use that.  Outside of updating interface names, most of our templates just worked.

We have a base config we use for building our 2901/11’s . Will this work on the 4321 or do I have to start from scratch.



Thanks
