Software and Hardware 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 line
cards within a system are compatible, but does provide the minimum Cisco IOS requirements for
individual hardware line cards, modules, or options.
Note Access to this tool is limited to users with Cisco.com login accounts.
To access Software Advisor, click Login at Cisco.com, type Software Advisor in the Search box, and
click Go. Click the link for the Software Advisor tool.
Choose a product family or enter a specific product number to search for the minimum supported
software release needed for your hardware.
