d. Total DSP requirement is the sumof a, b and c. The DSPresources can not be shared between analogVICs,
BRI VIC and VWICs
2. For the EarlyDeployment (ED)releases: CiscoIOS 12.2(8)YNor later ( Note: notinclude 12.2(11)YT)or Ttrain
releases 12.3(1)T or later, please always refer to the DSP Calculator in the following link:
