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.
