Checking Hardware and Software Compatibility
Checking Hardware and Software Compatibility
To check the minimum software requirements of Cisco IOS software with the hardware installed on your
router, Cisco maintains the Software Advisor tool on Cisco.com. This tool does not verify whether
modules within a system are compatible, but it does provide the minimum IOS requirements for
individual hardware modules or components.
Note
Access to this tool is limited to users with Cisco.com login accounts.
To access Software Advisor, click Login at Cisco.com and go to Technical Support Help—Cisco
TAC: Tool Index: Software Advisor. You can also access the tool by pointing your browser directly
to http://www.cisco.com/cgi-bin/support/CompNav/Index.pl.
Choose a product family or enter a specific product number to search for the minimum supported
software release needed for your hardware.
