CPA = CiscoPro. When Cisco first started selling through two tier distribution they created the CiscoPro line. Painted them off-white. Limited IOS. When they came to their senses they made it possible to Cisco-ize those boxes to accept any IOS. You need a small utility program called RSL Router Software Loader. http://www.cisco.com/cgi-bin/Software/Tablebuild/tablebuild.pl/rsl You do need a CCO login to access this page. Cisco will send you updated boot ROMs for the price of shipping. My guess is that you have 4MB of Flash on these boxes. Update the ROMs and then buy two sticks of 8MB Flash per box either on eBay or from one of the individuals on this list. Buy one 16MB stick of standard 72 pin DRAM with parity for each box.
