fre2 -vs- o60

Postby Guest » Fri Dec 10, 2004 3:57 pm

I was having problems with BLN-2 rebooting with a bus error. After
trying a bunch of different things, I narrowed it down to the
o60/octalsync modules.

I replaced the o60 module with what I thought was a another o60. It
turned out to be an fre2. What is the difference between the fre2 and
the o60? Anything to worry about? Its been running four days with out
a crashing (knock-knock).

Thanks.

Been a while since I have messed with any of the REAL Bay routers. Been
outta the loop for a while on them, but I THINK:
FRE2 *IS* an 060. The FRE4's are PPC based, but I think the FRE2 is an 060.

I'm sureone will correct me if I am wrong

There is a FRE2 and also a FRE2-060. The "060" refers to a newer
version of the Motorola CPU running on the motherboard. If you
replaced a FRE2-060 with a FRE2 you need not worry unless you are
running a large configuration (ex. terminating hundreds of Frame Relay
PVCs on a single slot).
