Sorry, mixed couple of things in one paragraph. To clarify my clarification: - RP1 is PowerPC based, long gone, not very bad, but FIB programming for example was not stellar in terms of speed - RP2 and RP3 are x86 64-bit capable, with RP3 only recently getting support in 16.3 train which may be showstopper for some of you - RP2 supports maximum of 16GB, while RP3 supports up to 64GB - 1001HX in terms of RP performance envelope is closer to 1002X, so RP2 based system; fixed configs have usually slightly scaled down Xeons inside to meet more restrictive temperature environment - 1002HX RP performance is around that of RP2, however in some scenarios can be 20-25% faster; again, fixed platform having it’s own requirements that are absent in fully modular chassis and more powerful fans and cooling capabilities - the ‘HX’ series currently consist only of 1001HX and 1002HX, so both fixed platforms with some modularity included; there are no HX fully modular chassis, so my comment above was misleading in terms of 1001HX/1002HX supporting RP3 - they simply can’t HTH, — ./ _______________________________________________ cisco-nsp mailing list [email protected] https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp archive at http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/
