IBM 8265: Product Description
Universal Feature Cards
Required FPGA Levels
Some 8260 ATM modules must have a minimum FPGA level to operate in the 8265.
Table 16 lists the modules and the minimum FPGA levels required. The modules
must have this FPGA level, or higher, before being installed in the 8265.
If your 8260 ATM module does not have the specified FPGA level (or higher), upgrade
the module before removing it from the 8260, using MES 5099. For information on
how to upgrade FPGA code, refer to
IBM 8260 Nways Multiprotocol Switching Hub,
ATM Control Point and Switch Module Installation and User’s Guide
, SA33-0326.
Other supported 8260 ATM modules (8271/8272 LAN Switch modules, for example),
are fully compatible with the 8265, and have no minimum FPGA level requirement.
