Introduction

The Cisco multiprocessor WAN application module (MWAM) provides three processor complexes with

dual processors used in two of the complexes and a single processor used in the remaining processor

complex. This architecture provides five mobile wireless applications on one module.

The MWAM does not provide external ports but is connected to the switch fabric in the

Cisco Catalyst 6500/Cisco 7600 chassis. An internal Gigabit Ethernet port provides an interface

between each processor complex and the Supervisor module. VLANs direct traffic from external ports

via the Supervisor module to each mobile wireless application instance.

The MWAM provides an interface to the Cisco IOS image on the Supervisor module. The Supervisor

module software enables a single session to be established to each application on the MWAM in the

chassis. Each session is used for configuring, monitoring, and troubleshooting application. For

information on establishing sessions to mobile wireless application instances on the MWAM, see the

MWAM User Guide for Mobile Wireless Applications:

The software image that provides the mobile wireless application feature is downloaded through the

Supervisor module and distributed to each processor complex on the MWAM(s). The same image is

installed on all the processors in the MWAM.
