Cisco IOS Software Packaging for the Cisco Catalyst 4500 Series

A new Cisco IOS Software package for Cisco Catalyst 4500 Series Switches was introduced in Cisco IOS Software Release 12.2(25)SG. It is a new foundation for features and functionality and provides consistency across all Cisco Catalyst switches. The new Cisco IOS Software release train is designated as 12.2SG.

Prior Cisco Catalyst 4500 Series Cisco IOS Software images for the Cisco Catalyst 4500 Series Switches, formerly known as Basic Layer 3 and Enhanced Layer 3, now map to IP Base and Enterprise Services, respectively. BGP is now included in the Enterprise Services image. All currently shipping Cisco Catalyst 4500 software features based on Cisco IOS Software are supported in the IP Base image of Release 12.2(50)SG, with a few exceptions.

The IP Base image does not support enhanced routing features such as NSF/SSO, BGP, EIGRP, EIGRPv6, OSPF, OSPFv3, IS-IS, Internetwork Packet Exchange (IPX), AppleTalk, VRF-lite, and Policy-Based Routing (PBR). The IP Base image supports EIGRP-Stub for limited routing on Supervisor Engines II-Plus, II-Plus-TS, II-Plus-10GE, IV, V, V-10GE, and 6-E.

The Enterprise Services image supports all Cisco Catalyst 4500 Series software features based on Cisco IOS Software, including enhanced routing. Customers planning to enable BGP for Supervisor Engine IV, V, or V-10GE will no longer need to purchase a separate BGP license (FR-IRC4) because BGP is included in the Enterprise Services package.

Catalyst 4500 Series Switch Cisco IOS Release Strategy

Cisco IOS Release 12.2SG train offers the latest features for the Catalyst 4500 Series supervisor engines. Customers with Catalyst 4500 Series supervisor engines who need the latest hardware support and software features should migrate to Cisco IOS Release 12.2(50)SG.

Note As part of the Cisco IOS Reformation effort, Cisco IOS Releases 12.2EW and 12.2SG are the same release train with a name change.

Catalyst 4500 Series has two maintenance trains. The Cisco IOS Release 12.2(25)EW train is the most stable train but only has features found in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2(25)EW. The
Cisco IOS Release 12.2(31)SG train has more recent features including support for the WS-X4013+10GE supervisor engine. Currently, the Cisco IOS Release 12.2(31)SGA7 is the recommended release for customers desiring a release with a maintenance train.

Cisco IOS Software Migration Guide

Figure 1 displays the Cisco IOS Software Release 12.2(50)SG plan relative to the 12.2S release train and identifies the recommended migration path. Note that 12.2(44)SG will not be the base release for a new maintenance train. Currently, the Cisco Catalyst 4500 platform has two active maintenance trains: 12.2(25)EWA and 12.2(31)SGA.

Figure 1 Software Release Strategy for the Catalyst 4500 Series Switch

Summary of Migration Plan

•Customers requiring the latest Cisco Catalyst 4500 Series hardware and software features should migrate to Cisco IOS Software Release 12.2(50)SG.

•Cisco IOS Software Release 12.2(31)SGA will continue offering maintenance releases. The latest release from the 12.2(31)SGA maintenance train is 12.2(31)SGA7.

•Cisco IOS Software Release 12.2(25)EWA will continue offering maintenance releases. The latest release from the 12.2(25)EWA maintenance train is 12.2(25)EWA14.
