Catalyst RSM/VIP2 Slot Numbering

The Catalyst RSM/VIP2 can be installed in any slot in a Catalyst 5000 family switch except the top slots,

which contain the supervisor engines. The Catalyst RSM/VIP2 does not use interface processor slot

numbering; therefore, the slots in which it is installed are not numbered. A port adapter can be installed

into either port adapter slot 0 or slot 1 on a Catalyst RSM/VIP2. Figure 1-6 shows a Catalyst 5000 family

switch with two port adapters installed in a Catalyst RSM/VIP2.
