Upgrading Routers from Version 7-9.xx to Version 10.0
2-10
Task 3: Reviewing Configuration-specific Issues Affecting Router
Software Upgrades
Depending on the current configuration of your Version 7–9.xx router, there may
be configuration-specific issues that you need to consider before you begin the
upgrade process. If you are upgrading routers in an environment that includes any
of the following configuration-specific situations, see Appendix B for detailed
information:
• X.25 Certification requirements
• Standard Point-to-Point (PPP) connection guidelines
• Switched Services enhancements and compatibility issues
• PPP multiline migration issues
If none of these situations applies to the router you are upgrading, go to Chapter 3
to begin the router upgrade process.
